Someone asked recently about searing and it was mentioned that many use the top grate turned upside down right over the firebox for searing. So i figured i'd do that and take pictures for the person who had asked, then i couldn't find the thread so here i am lol
This is how i reverse sear, others may do it a little differently but there are a thousand ways to cook a steak. I started at about 240 degrees. it settled there so i left it. Then after an hour and 10 minutes take the steak off to rest, i had an internal temp of 115. Then while resting i opened the bottom vents all the way and opened the top vent 3 full turns. That was plenty to get flames coming up through the grate. Then i seared 30 seconds and rotated the steak and seared for another 30 seconds. Then flipped the steak and seared it again in both directions for a nice XXX. I forgot to take any real plated shots cause i was really hungry by that point lol
PS
The burgers in the first shot were for the dogs, one isn't feeling well and i needed to get him to eat something. I couldn't give a burger to one dog and not the other so ........ lol
