Cooks' note:

Steaks can be grilled in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned large ridged grill pan, uncovered, turning over once (and rotating 90 degrees on each side for crosshatch marks), 5 minutes per side. Reduce heat to moderately low and cook steaks, covered with an inverted roasting pan, turning over occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes more.
