you need to try reverse sear on the grill... the extra grill flavor from indirect grilling up to temp first makes a world of difference. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi

what's better...sear first or reverse sear?
If I was to guess I'd say it doesn't matter. The idea of searing sealing-in the juices is a myth. MAYBE there's a little more chemical reaction that results in good things if you sear first, but I'd imagine that would be minimal as well.
Last weekend i did a hybrid of grilling and cast-iron butter basting. Started with one American Wagyu ribeye and two really thick prime fillets. Salt, pepper and a little olive oil for the sear on the grill, while at the same time I heated my cast iron pan on the grill. After the sear I tossed them in the cast iron with some butter and rosemary, then butter basted them until the insides got to 120. They came out fantastic.
That sounds fantastic...this is the exact method I had in mind, but with the oven instead of the grill. I finally got my skillet seasoned to where I'd feel comfortable using it for a nice piece of meat. I tried the reverse sear method: oven first at 250f, and then butter baste with herbs and garlic in the cast iron. Best steak I've ever made myself, which is bittersweet, because I've always preferred a 100% grilled steak.
Just had 120 days dry aged rib eye recently, fancy spot... not rotten at all, was expecting to taste like cheese a lil, just straight up soft like Kobe (the beef that is)
