Ribeye Roast and Baking Steel?

I have a 4.5 pound ribeye roast that I am going to cook tonight.  I was wondering if it makes any sense to heat up the baking steel directly over the lump and cook the roast on it.  I was thinking that this method might give the roast an even browning all over.  Is my thinking way off base?  I don't want to blow this cook as this roast was pretty pricey!  Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    Great idea for sear or reverse sear. I would think it might not be the best idea to plan on doing the whole cook on the steel though. I would cook indirect until about 120 IT then sear on the steel for even browning.
