Reverse sear question

I love the process and have made several very successful ones. Unfortunately I haven't bought an egg for my lake house yet but would like to reverse a couple of nice pieces of beef I have for this weekend at the lake. I'm thinking about putting the beef on at 250 and bringing to 110 IT and throwing in the fridge immediately. Vacu seal when cool and use a water bath to bring back to 110-115 and then a flash sear on a raging grill. What do you think?

    No oven?  

    If not, people here have a way to do it in water.  I don't know how though, so can't say on that.

    You can always do it all on a grill.  I don't always reverse sear.

    Hot spot, indirect spot on any grill.

    I'm missing something -- why not do both steps on the same grill at the Lake? I love my Eggs, feel like I get better flavor than I ever did with other charcoal or gas grills, but I just can't believe that what you'll get out of a pretty short cook in the Egg at 250 and then all of that hassle is going to be worth it.  I agree with @bhedges1987: do the indirect and the direct on the same grill at the lake.
