cooked this up in under 40 min total, mostly on the flat grill

2x10oz nystrips ($27.50lb)

bag of alexia panko breaded onion rings

bag of organic green beans

first time cooking steaks on the flat grill, had the temp ~500 degrees, did 5 min each side. next time will cut that down to 4

green beans blanched for 3 min then finished on the grill

180

you guys should try doing cedar planked salmon sometime, too. use a maple-bourbon glaze and make some risotto to go with it.

167.

The steak is overcooked, but the crust looks great. Your only mistake was the length of the cook, not the temperature so congrats on that. The onion rings and beans look really good.

Get in the habit of touching the meat to gauge the doneness. As it cooks, it gets tougher and there's a noticeable difference between rare, medium rare, medium, medium well, and well. Based on the photo you took of the inside, it looks medium well (which isn't bad by any means), but I imagine it was a little tough and you would've preferred medium rare/medium. At 3 minutes, try touching it, then touch it again at 4 minutes. Take it off at 4 and enjoy, but keep in mind what it felt like at 3 as well. Right now, your cook times entirely depend on the thickness of steak, which won't always be consistent.

$27.50/lb for strip? Holy Toledo. You can get prime ribeye for that price, or less.

i was just as shocked at you, but this wasn't even the most expensive i could have paid. just a decent ny strip from behind the counter at whole foods. if i went to market district and got something from their dry aged selection it would have been even more.

I do try to make steak for the family once and a while, but i'm not sure the point in spending $30 and a couple of hours when you can get a steak burrito from Chipotle for $12.00.
