The London food art duo Bompas and Parr are at it again, this time using both lava and lightning to cook up some steaks and veggies.

To make the culinary magic happen, the two traveled to New York state and got a little help from a Syracuse University professor who specializes in creating hot, molten substances.

Prepping the grill involved hooking up an industrial bronze furnace, making a tunnel for the lava to flow down, and outfitting it with a traditional grill top.

Finally, threw on the eats and let the 21-hundred degree Fahrenheit flow do its magic.

It was a success, charring both 10-ounce ribeyes and ears of corn in seconds.

But that wasn’t enough for the guys, and next they moved onto a source that could provide 50 thousand degrees of cooking power – lightning.

Back in the UK at the University of Southampton, they situated a hunk of meat between two transformers and zapped it with a 200 thousand volt electrical arc.

It proved to be a much faster means of cooking something through, charring the steak in microseconds.

They believe it could be the next big thing in the culinary world.
