How to Sear a Steak in Cast Iron | Chuck Eye Steak Recipe

I've done it both ways on the charcoal grill and it makes no difference as to flavor or how done the meat is. If you sear first over a flame you just need to turn the meat every 15 seconds while developing a crust on it and you won't overcook it. My man Guga sears his steaks first before going indirect.YellowSnow said:
Whatever you do, reverse sear at the end. Get that meat eaven medium rare from center to edge and then sear.TheRoarOfTheCrowd said:so the BBQ i just bought has a 14,000 BTU infrared side burner for searing meats on the side of the BBQ... it heats quickly... Gas is forced through ports in a ceramic plate and ignited, heating to 1800°F in 30 seconds producing high heat searing. Anyone have any experience with that? Seems like you would sear the meat for 15- 30 seconds or? I had planned on cooking with the cast iron skillet in the main BBQ area at 500 degrees after searing on the side burner but haven't tried it yet. Any advice?

Reverse sear is nice when youre cooking inside. Because it dries it out a lot on the outside so it doesnt spit muchBleachedAnusDawg said:
