One thing I found out that she pressed the ignition button before she realized that the fuel valve was not turned on. That caused the BBQ to work in a low setting. Once I saw that the steaks were not cooked the way they were supposed to, I went back outside, turned the fuel valve again, and relighted the grill.

More flame came out, and it worked better that time.
Sounds great! Now you can experiment with smoking larer cuts of meat this way. Turkeys are excellent. Beef Briskets are also good. Larger cuts take longer to cook; but are well worth the wait.
