120-125 = rare
125-135 = Med rare
135-145 = med

anything higher than that s over done

Get the temp as high as you want. Time will depend on temp.

Crimson Gator -
Do you know how long on each side. My egg is about to about 500 degrees, I am looking for medium - medium rare

deltadawn · January 2009

500-550 temp
2 minutes each side.

Shut all the vents down and do another 1-2 min each side, depending on thickness of steak and preferred doneness. This is usually rare to med rare for us.

They turn out great!

delta dawn,
thanks, this is what I needed!!!

not more than a few minutes per side

I'd go with deltadawn - try one - as you can go back and burn them a little more if need be!

500° 1 1/2 inches 1 minute rotate 180° 1 minute
repeat on other side and check with thermo pen wrap in foil and let rest 10 minutes should be rare more time for more done. if you shut your egg down as suggested and then open it you will have no eyebrows or arm hair or MUCH worse go to naked whiz and read/watch flasback
BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT SHUTTING DOWN A HOT EGG AND THEN OPENING. yes i meant the caps
bill

180 degrees gives you parallel sear marks, for future ref. i think you meant 90 degrees

a flashback will often occur if you shut down and then try to open it again right away, but if you shut down and it takes 20 minutes to drop to roasting temp, you won't be greeted with a flashback when you reopen it.

@ buffettdog i hope it turned out nicely for you. I have been struggling getting my steaks to med rare following the 2min sear on each side and then shutdown for several more mins. Last night I had 1.25" ribeyes and seared 2min a side @ 650 and then shutdown a waited 1 more min and they were medium. I'm going to try the 2min sear per side and then pull them off. They were very juicy and tasty though so no complaints about that. Good luck
