I picked up two prime cap steaks at Costco.
What internal temp should I use for the reverse part?

Thanks

    Where do you want to finish? I'd go to 110-115 for lower side of Medium Rare.



    I had one for lunch. I went hot and fast in a CI skillet but put it in the freezer for 15 minutes before cooking. The interior was still nice and cool when finished.

    I'm going to do one of these tomorrow that I got from SRF.  I'm excited to see how it goes!

    It turned out great. I pulled from reverse at 110. I will say the way the cap was rolled I wound up with a lower than desirable ratio of crust to interior. After cooking I started to slice and it unrolled. The meat was about 1/2 x 2 inches. The crust was on the 1/2in side. I don't know if I will do these again simply due to that. They were perfectly cook at medium rare.
