First time grilling \"good quality\" steak

There's a great market here in San Diego called Siesel's. The beef is outstanding. I bought a Delmonico. This was the first time I made something this thick (about 1.75") I highly recommend this place. They also run Iowa Meats here in town. http://www.iowameatfarms.signonsandiego.com/ There's no doubt that the quality of the meat you start with makes a big difference in what you cook.
I took the steak out of the fridge, coated in EVOO, rubbed with Dizzy Pig Cow Lick. Then hot tubbed it at 100F for about an hour. The egg was lit in 4 places.
Seared each side at 650F dome for one minute. Then shut all the vents and closed the door for 2 and a half minutes. (the wife and I like it pretty rare.)
Ahhhh so good! As always, thanks for all the tips and advice--best forum ever.
Ready to grill
one minute on one side. (LBGE with 18"CI grill)
one minute on the other side
served with sweet potato salad (see recipe in NY Times)

Can you please explain hotubbing to me?
Thanks in advance,

Sure (but it's not my method/idea--I can't remember who came up with it! hopefully someone can give them the credit where my memory fails me.)
Anyway, the steak is kept in a ziploc bag and submerged in a small tub of 100 F water. How long you keep it there depends on the thickness or size of the piece. I typically change out the water to keep it at 100 without going higher. The point is to get it warmer than ambient. That way after you sear it, you only have to cook a little while longer to get it rare, but no longer cold. You don't want it to get too high or you might boil it! -
Great looking steak with fantastic grill marks.
