The steak isn't going to stick at all to a well seasoned cast iron pan so turning it should not be a problem.

Both good points.  A griddle is, however, by definition, flat.  Lodge has a version that is flat on one side with ridges on the other - a perfect solution.

I looked at that very one at the farm store yesterday...  It's a big mutha.

I use a fish fryer that I change out the regulator and I use a 12'' cast iron flat skillet. It will get'r done.

Good catch Ka Honu. I should have said cast iron grill pan.
