Virgin Egghead, First time Ribeyes
Ok everyone,
Salt/Pepper along with some other spices and I let it sit out for 40 mins prior to going on the grill. I had grill around 600, 2 1/2 mins first side and 3 mins on the other. I let it rest in foil for about 20 mins prior to cutting it. I think I will go 3 to 3 1/2 with this size steak the next time. The steak was great but it was a little closer to rare than med. rare. My question for the experts: With a ribeye, should I go lower heat for a little bit longer to let the fat break down? Either way, I think it was great for my first steak on the BGE, I did immediately take the steak off the grill after 3 mins on second side. Some people have said close up shop and leave it in there for a bit. Just some thoughts and I'll be checking the board as well. I've included a before and after pic so any constructive criticism will be gladly accepted!

Nice looking steak... Don't over think it. Search "Trex" and that should put you on the path you're after...MSV Chill Spot

You will need a Thermapen, as stated above. Hardly ANYTHING is done by time. Too many variables.
