or does it slow cook it?
what is the best way to use the infra red burner (Propane)
Answers:
it sears the food which is great for doing thick cut fatty steaks like porterhouse, rib-eye, strip etc. but be careful about burning as this is the intention of this accesory and it can get upwards of 1000 degrees farenheit
The infrared burner works by focusing the flame of a standard gas burner onto a ceramic tile that has thousands of microscopic holes in it. This converts the heat of the flame into infrared energy, the same energy you feel from the sun on a cold day. This heat is much higher and more persistent than a standard grill can produce.

This site talks about infrared grills and their benefits. You use the infrared grill almost exactly like a regular grill. However, the design of the grill cooks the meat in half the time.
All it does is keep things warm untill your ready to eat.
