Reverse Sear Filet Mignon & Grilled Romaine & Grilled Napa Cabbage

300* indirect for like 30 minutes or so until the IT was 115*. Then direct. As it was coming up to 550*~, I grilled off the Romaine and Cabbage. I think the filet was better than going direct, as I feel it picked up some slow smoke flavor. 
Sorry for not being more comprehensive with the photos. Things were moving quickly there at the end. 
I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

    I can't remember that I've ever done a reverse sear. Glad I took the extra time to do it. Flipped it after about 15 minutes when it reached 80*. I was checking temp with the thermapen from the side. Salted it an hour before grilling then added a simple rub and cracked black pepper. 

    I feel like I'm talking to myself here, but I'm using this post as a historical referral in case I need to look back to this to remember how I did it. Definitely using this method again.

    Looks great!  I had been wondering if anybody did reverse sear without a continuous read thermo setup.  I am going to try this.
