Charcoal-grilled Steak

[camilled]

Any recommendations on the best Houston restaurant for a charcoal-grilled steak?

The rodizio type places? I've never been, just not interested in the pig-out experience, but any place claiming to serve asados should be using charcoal, no?

Or some of the other South American places that aren't rodizio style service - Samba Grill, Emporio, Saldivias? I checked some websites but didn't see any mentions of charcoal.

Some of the Pollo Asado wagons around town actually cook on charcoal! Some also serve fajitas but I suspect you're looking for something a bit more formal?

Brennan's? Del Friscos?

I doubt you will find agreement as to one restaurant in a city such as Houston that is THE BEST at anything -- seafood, sushi, Indian, Italian, burgers, BBQ or steak. Amongst the best I would list:

- Vic & Anthony's downtown
- Pappas Steakhouse
- Brenner's / Brenner's on the Bayou

Do those places actually use charcoal? That's what stumped me on this query.
