Straight up good steak

I love doing the reverse sear. Steaks come out killer every time. Why mess that up? However I've been wondering is there another good tried and true constant temperature method for doing good steaks?

    Forward sear on thinner steaks

    I only to reverse sear on really nice, thick steaks, over an inch thick, preferably a good inch and a half.  And those are by far my favorite steaks.

    But when I cook thinner steaks, less than an inch, I just flip often (like about every two minutes) over a pretty hot fire (550° or so), and honestly, it works really well, much better than just flipping once.  I still get a nice char, but I feel like I get less gray meat with frequent flipping than I used to with a single flip.

    As much as I loved the RS, we now do Sous Vide then hot sear on cast iron either on the egg or on the stove.

    Super easy and impossible to f-up.

    IMHO, YMMV & WADR
