Ok team.... You have always done me a solid in the past.... So here we go again... I love ribeyes.... Love them rare.... And want the fat to melt as much as possible... How do I do this?

The attached steak was taken directly out if the fridge and cook on each sode for 2 min at 650 -700 degrees....  this is how I want the steak to look.... But the fat was still solid and did not melt into the muscle.

Thank for the help!

    Bout 4 or 5 seconds from mooin'

    Maybe hot tub it, then sear?  Just a stab in the dark.

    That looks more like tartare than rare.  :)

    I think similar to Yolk. Reverse sear?  Slow heat at 200 dome , to an IT of 100f, remove while getting egg to 600, sear 1 minute per side?

    Get a thick ribeye (at least 1.5", 2" is better) and do a reverse sear. Cook indirect at 250* until 115* and then pull it and setup for direct cooking with a blazing hot fire. Put it back on and flip until color is right.

    Hot tub for an hour at 110 degrees and then sear to desired color.

    Any road will take you there if you don't know where you're going.
