That, or very lucky. But I've always been able to do this regardless of the fire being used or the thickness of the steak. I just 'sense' that it's time to turn it over, and it comes out right every time.

LOL! This is Japan. A $10 steak would weigh 3oz. for ordinary beef.
A pound of Kobe steak runs between $300-$350 a pound, but no one eats Kobe beef in US-style cuts anyway. It would be like eating a mouthful of lard.

When I want (or can afford) good steak, I have to go to a wholesale butcher shop that is open to the public one morning a week and have them cut it to order. Steaks sold in the supermarket are usually about 1/4" thick.
