Hi Rachael.

Best item to cook it in for a single: Heavy cast iron pan. Takes time to
cure them totally but just use to cook fatty things and wipe with a towel to
clean (not dishwasher) an it's good.

Next up is a habatchi which is sized right for a single to use.

Tender meats are ones that have a fair amount of fat running through them.
Those lovely all red packs with no visible fat, do not make for good steaks.
T-bone is the classic one for tender good meat.

Hibachis do work well for grilling one steak, but so does a Smokey
Joe, and it can do so much more. Chicken thighs on a hibachi?
