Woah, man, I need to do a better job of proofreading when I post from my phone. That's brutal reading right there.

If you want you steak to have a flavor (other than good 'ol steak - which I still dont understand) but you should just marinate or season it before grilling - Putting A1 on a GOOD steak is like putting ketchup on your mashed potatoes
I always ate steak rare until I got food poisoning from it. Awful. The night before the 2012 playoff game TT and Co vs Pitt
The smoke is the worst part of making steak. My smoke alarm used to go off every time we made it. We got a Ninja Foodi Grill for Christmas this year though and it's been life-changing. Anything we used to make that would smoke up the house we can just make on that now for the most part.
Do you live in an apartment?
My favorite way to eat a steak is a reverse sear. I picked this up after I bought my pellet smoker and it's great. Smoke for an hour at 160-180, then sear for 3-4 minutes on each side at 500. Comes out perfect medium rare every time.
I gotcha. If you've got a patio you could always get a little gas grill to put out there to cook on. Would be better than the Foodie.
On a side note, we bought an Insta Pot deal that's also an air fryer thinking we'd use it a lot. We used it once. To make dessert. It has since been retired in to a kitchen cabinet where things go to die.
