Is Cooking A Steak In A Frying Pan Just As Good As On Indoor Grill?

Using an electric indoor grill gives you a variety of options for preparing all kinds of great tasting foods, but one question that many people seem to have is whether a steak is best cooked on an indoor grill or in a frying pan? This is the type of question that you'll get 100 different answers and advice on.

I personally prefer using indoor grills in almost every case over a frying pan. There are times, such as cooking pork chops that have been seasoned and have a flour breading on them, that I will use a frying pan. But for steaks, give me a grill every time. That said, there are some very good grilling pans on the market today.

You will also find that cooking your steak on an indoor grill eliminates the fat since it will drip down and into the drip pan. Frying keeps the fat in the meat most of the time. The other advantage of pan frying is a shorter cooking time, but this is a very minor factor for most people. I'm after taste more than a few minutes of time.
