Reverse seared Steaks

• Start with a minimum 1 inch Steak with some nice marbling from your local Butcher (I personally prefer a Scotch steak)
• Season your steak evenly on both sides and edges, you can use a basic Salt, Pepper, Garlic rub mixture or purchase a commercial one if preferred
• While the steak is taking in those flavors its time to setup the Offset Plate
• Place your Offset Plate on the lower grate
• Half fill the side chamber with Lump Charcoal
• Place one fire lighter under one of the pieces of charcoal and light leaving the lid off at this stage
• Once a few pieces have lit place the lid on and bring the pit temperature to 225f
• Place steaks in the center of the top rack and monitor until the internal temperature of the steaks reach 105f – 110f
• Once the steaks have reached an internal temperature of 105f – 110f remove and rest for 8-10 minutes on a plate with a loose piece of foil on top with a small opening to allow excess heat to escape so as to not steam the steaks (You can rest longer if required)
• While the steaks are resting remove the lid to allow the charcoal to reach a much higher heat ready for searing
• Once your steaks have rested take them back out to the bbq and sear for 1-2 minutes each side until the internal temperature reaches 135f – 140f for that perfect steak.

Alternative Sear using Grill Grates

• Remove your Offset Plate – Be cautious as it will be extremely Hot
• Fill your chimney with Charcoal Briquettes and light
• Once fully lit, evenly pour them onto the lower grate for a consistent heat
• Return the top grate and place your Grill Grates directly over the lit charcoal
• Leave the lid off to let the Grill Grates reach around 600-650f
• Now that your steaks have rested take them out to your kettle
• Place your Steaks on the Grill Grates diagonally
• After 1 minute has passed pick your steak up using the Grill Grates lifter and rotate 90 degrees and place back down for another minute
• Now flip your steaks over and repeat that process, monitor the internal temperature
• Once they have reached 135f-140f or your desired temperature remove and enjoy
