    Sorry to hear that, Chuck, and trust me I understand your disapointment! I have become such a sous vide fan that I don't mind the extra effort to assure a perfect steak time after time. OTOH I had been a fan of hot tubbing my steaks for years - it's just that with the sous vide unit I can nail the internal temperature every time.

     I have a sous vide Demi however my wife showed up with this steak at 5:30 PM no time to SV but I am also in the SV camp.  I typically SV to 115 for three or four hours then sear on a 450/475 CI until 125/128 this works well around here!

    I tend to overshoot the temp more with NY strips than with ribeyes. I guess the extra fat in a ribeye helps. 

    But it I wouldn't complain about that steak!

    How do you like that indirect divider? Do you use it often?

    NY sirloin strips cook very fast.  If you're used to cooking ribeye, it's easy to overcook.

    Once the IT gets to 100-105 the last 15 goes very fast. Strips seem the fastest.

    I agree on the strips vs ribeye, this was operator  error. My favorite happens to be ribeye and I made the mistake of treating the strip like a ribeye.  It was still pretty good, we have some of the best sweet corn on the planet  right now in Michigan and it helped make for a great meal!

     I love the dividers  and use them all the time,  they work great for indirect as well as direct grilling at the same time,  most of my cooks are for just the Mrs. and Myself

    @RRP my opinion of Sous Vide steak has really improved. I had always felt like the flavor was not as good as a traditionally cooked steak.
    The last ribeyes I cooked were water bathed to 100 deg for maybe 1.5 hrs. They were around 1 1/4 inches thick. 
    I finished them on the PK grill about 2 inches from the charcoal. 
    Starting the final sear at 100 deg gave the steak more time over the charcoal and the flavor was excellent. I cooked them until about medium rare.
    Seeing your post about it encouraged me to keep trying.
    I'm now a Sous Vide convert.
