When broiling steak in an oven, is there any difference between positioning the steak lengthwise or crosswise relative to the flame?

    Could you please explain what you mean by “crosswise” or “lengthwise”? I am trying to picture the setup, but can’t quite imagine what you mean. – Stephie Oct 30 '18 at 09:46
  • I think "parallel" vs. "perpendicular" to the flame -- not positive though. – Erica Oct 30 '18 at 12:18

There is no difference in whether you place your steak perpendicular or parallel to the flame, however, what's your goal? If you want a crust or char over most of the surface, you would probably want to turn it part way through the cooking.
