    LOL! IN my HS Welding/forging class we had a class party on the last day of the semester. My friend's uncle was a local "Hebrew National" distributor and so we roasted a bunch of hot dogs in the forges with brazing rods through 'em.

    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    Guess that beats my dad cooking eggs (when they could get some) on the road in the red centre during WW2.

    I don't mind a little bit charred if that is what it takes to get the inside cooked to a slight gray or light tan color I will accept the slightest hint of pink but cooked less than that and I'll send it back.
    Not much or a steak person but I like the thinner cuts because by the time the outside gets well seared the inside has just lost its pink . For the thicker cuts say 1 inch and thicker I like to flash sear them over extreme high heat then wrap them in a double layer of foil and toss them up in the smoker for half an hour or so. the inside gets cooked to light gray while the juices are sealed in.
    Cooking over the lava whether natural of manufactured I would have concerns of toxic gasses being infused into the steaks

    I read a year or two ago that the university of Syracuse in new York made a machine to melt rocks to study its volcanic properties

    They are re-melting basaltic lava flows from a quarry in Wisconsin, so it is actual molten rock. Their website has a pretty decent explanation of everything involved.
