Just pick your pan up to move it instead of sliding it around and you should be fine. My current apartment has one too, sadly.

If I'm doing something like the Kenji butter-basted steak I just give up and do it on my brewing burner outside.

Literally looks like a WWII naval mine.

The thicker the steak, the better the reverse sear method is. With this method you wont end up with a rainbow of doneness through the steak.

So if you have a relatively normal cut of meat, either way is fine, but once you start getting into the 2" thick cuts, reverse is the way to go.

Or if you want to go really decadent, baste them with butter while they cook.

Do not do this inside, you will set off every smoke detector in your house.

Unless it's an industrial strength fume extractor you're still going to be smoking up the kitchen when you do a good sear. Whenever I do Kenji's pan seared porterhouse recipe I just throw my skillet on the propane burner I use for brewing so I don't have to worry about the smoke and grease splatters.

Made Kenji's pan pizza. I've made plenty of neapolitan in an actual pizza oven before, but this was my first time making pizza in cast iron. Came out pretty drat well.

That is some hella good looking crust.

Beauty of doing it in cast iron: crust wasn't totally done on the bottom when the toppings were, so I just tossed it on a burner for a few minutes after I pulled it from the oven.
