I bought a Slow and Sear and tried this method for the first time last night. My wife said it was the best steak I've ever cooked! Which shocked me because she doesn't hand out a lot of compliments on my cooking. ;) I'm 53 and weigh 280. Do the math...I've cooked A LOT of steaks over the years and these turned out fantastic. There's actually a lot of science behind each step in this video. Can't wait to try this approach with other meats. Now, to the Slow and Sear itself. Some people (including me at first) may think the Slow and Sear is a bit expensive. However, when you count the time and effort to do a good cook, the cost of the meat, the cost of going to the store, and the fact a Slow and Sear will last many years...it's super cheap per cook because you can use it a long time. A Slow and Sear isn't required for the approach in this video. But I've tried the other methods and the Slow and Sear is more convenient and gives much more flexibility for slow cooking and searing, as shown in other videos. Try it, you won't be disappointed. For the record, I have no affiliation with this company. I'm just happy with the product.

[@SnSGrills]

Love your comment! Thanks for watching and glad you're enjoying your Slow 'N Sear.

[@randycorreia349]

Last night I dried & salted my 11/2" thick ribeye steaks. Tonight I'll use your method to cook them. If mine come close to yours I'll be satisfied. I've seared on a cast iron pan than finished them in a 500* oven. Your method makes sense I'll let you know how they turn out. Thank you for the video

[@SnSGrills]

Yes, keep us posted!

[@mikecurt]

How did they turn out?

[@13mudgirl]

ptman3 now with you method although it does work, go buy a sear attatchment for a propane torch, due to the heat it will not cook the meat, it sears the outside without cooking it any further on the inside, based on the science it is %100 guaranteed to work better than hot coals.

One of the things I like about the reverse sear method, is that when you’re entertaining or hosting the party, you have more leisurely grill-side cook time to converse, relax, socialize and smell the awesome food cooking at a backyard cookout. It makes the best steaks and the best time for being with friends and family.

[@SnSGrills]

canonman223 totally agree. Thanks for watching!

[@IMAWriterRobJ]

@@SnSGrills Yes...agreed. What's the hurry? A much more secure way of getting things as you like them. So, you don't sear the sides/fat cap? I'll guess having the cold grill allows those sides to get done? Thanks for a very entertaining video. Even cast iron-oven guys like me found the pace perfect!

[@mrlt1151]

Exactly. Most of the cooking is done during the indirect portion. There’s a pretty big window to pull the steak off. I don’t hesitate to jump in the pool with the kids, or pour some wine / prep sides while the steaks cook. I have a Bluetooth thermometer that pushes a notification to my phone at few degrees short of the target temperature. My sister thinks I’m an artist, but really I’m a technician following the rules. I genuinely enjoy grilling, it’s a ritual for me and love the positive feedback I get.

Hey Rus, Dave's on a plane, but I'm sure he'll reply when he see this. I have to admit that the first time Dave told me about cold grate thing, I though it sounded a bit fidgety but I'm completely sold on the concept. Dave cooked dinner last night and my wife loved her steak so much she can't wait for Dave to come back. As the person who has been making steaks for her for years, I should probably be offended, but I think she's right. lol.

[@patriciorg1]

Loved the results using this method. My wife said it was the best steak she ever had..

[@argerm57]

America's Test Kitchen (Cook's Illustrated) has a similar method, cooking indoors in an oven. You cook the steaks (thicker is better) in a low oven (200-250 degrees) until you get the desired doneness, then finish in a hot, heavy pan (cast iron) to get the sear. I've tried it and it is very good, with similar results as they got here.

[@lolaottinger6976]

No Rulers- Wondering if any of y’all have tried tri tip, it’s a great piece of beef, I generally cook in in a 500 degree oven for 30 mins (2 1/2-3 lbs) and its a perfect medium rare.

[@argerm57]

@@lolaottinger6976 I have done a lot of tri tips over the past ten years, or so. I usually grill these, 5-10 minutes per side to sear on high, then indirect heat with the burners under the meat off and the ones still on at high or low, depending on how large the tri tip is. I grill for another 30-40 minutes until the desired doneness. As I like to say, this cut is almost foolproof.

[@longebane]

Cooking indoors in the oven loses on the smokey wood flavor

[@realtoast7036]

Excellent. I watch these steak videos often. They usually end up with an obviously overcooked "medium rare". The results here looked good enough to stick my nose to the screen.

[@darkpatches]

Reminds me of a steak I deep fried with a pitchfork in the southwest hills of ND once. I love reverse sear. Slow cook for an hour in the oven, then sear in a cast iron skillet with ghee.

[@acey6991]

Ghee has a really unique flavour, almost like butter, I usually use grapeseed oil to get that nice crust

[@QuadeQuick]

I agree... the hour needs to be flexible depending on the size of the steak (I'm a filet guy, so it's usually a 275 degree oven for 40 minutes), and don't forget to rest them for 15 minutes before finishing them on the cast iron. And toss in some fresh rosemary or thyme while you finish them in the ghee... or butter if you must. :-)

[@darkpatches]

@The Bushwacker Be nice. "Almost like butter" is actually apt, even with the understanding that it is butter, as the flavor is different than regular butter.

[@darkpatches]

@@QuadeQuick Great tips. I go between 210-225F for an hour to 1.5 hrs, for an inch or larger. Your advice is good, too, I'm sure. In fact, I often do several steaks and eat them on subsequent days. Get them up to room temp, the cast iron up to branding iron temp, then flip often in a substantial amount of oil/ghee to get in the nooks and crannies. Still have the pink all the way through which is now warmed up and the crusted sear. The last two chuckeye center cut steaks I cooked this way, my son said they were the best steaks ever (they weren't; come on son, ribeyes, RIBEYES!). Of course, the grill or a grate over a hot firepit can be substituted for the cast iron. Most of all, experiment. I came up with reverse sear without even knowing it was a thing.

[@SmokinandGrillinwithAB]

Bought a Slow 'N Sear and tried this method tonight on 3 prime rib eyes. Followed instructions carefully. My wife, who is a gourmet cook, a friend who is a restaurant chef with 50 years experience, and I all agreed that these were the best steaks we have ever had. Better than any of the great Texas steakhouses we have been to. The steaks were done, but still juicy and tender. Every bite was delicious. Loved the smoky flavor. Will never waste a good steak cooking the old way. Can't wait to try a prime rib or tenderloin.

I use similar method, but I cook them first in the oven, and then finish with a very hot sear on a cast iron pan. Reverse sear is the way to go.

[@gregjackson9728]

what temp did you set the oven, and how long did it take, if you don't mind? I do not have a charcoal grill but interested in the method.

[@amaroudis]

Greg Jackson you don't need a grill. This is a great video on it. You can play with the times to get the "doneness" you are looking for. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYuXqZ9tja-AZpo

[@jpp46656]

I get my internal temp to between 125-130 then I take the steak off of heat. Let it sit for a bit while I prepare sides and get some serious heat going on the grill or on the stove top. Then in a cast-iron skillet (in winter and fall), or on the grill I have hot coals ready to go, sear the steak hard over the hottest medium available for about one minute per side. This is the best and most consistent way to prepare a steak.

[@SnSGrills]

Thanks for the feedback John! Be sure to check out our cold grate technique videos so you're getting the max benefit from your grill. Of course you do have to have an SnS or similar setup to achieve the right kind of heat. You didn't mention what you're cooking with.

[@Kyle-cv3de]

Your method fucking sucks. Good luck destroying perfectly innocent beef. You're already almost completely cooked at 130.

[@Kyle-cv3de]

You dont know shit about cooking a good steak if you're searing a steel that's already done. Please stop politicking about your mediocre cooking methods to the public. Its toxic, and might get someone slapped for serving a leathery piece of beef the wrong hombre.

[@tewlbocks3362]

@@Kyle-cv3de Did you even see that steak at the end, you hateful idiot? He clearly said to take the steak off indirect heat when it reaches 20 degrees below the target temp. Searing takes it the rest of the way. Learning to listen is an important life skill; one you clearly haven't yet mastered.

[@bbqkip]

That cutting hurt a bit indeed

[@tylerjacobson8012]

Like the reverse sear method quite a bit myself. It's great on thick steaks. I don't know if I'm keen on cold grate searing. The logic made sense obviously. There's some great steakhouses that sear steaks on flat tops and they're just phenomenal. But grate marks are what take steaks over the top for me. You eat just as much with your eyes as you do your tastebuds. Not knocking this method whatsoever. Looks phenomenal.

[@SnSGrills]

Tyler Your eyes have been taught wrong. Once your eyes learn what a great all over sear does for a steak you'll never look at grill marks the same way.

[@jtanner71]

I agree with ABC re: grill marks....but I don't usually worry too much about it. This is my favourite way to do steaks (thick steaks......are there any other kind??), even over using my sous vide/sear technique which is great...just not this great.

[@Brandon4EK]

I think is is also why I've generally preferred searing my steaks with a cast iron pan... never would have thought of this cold grate method, thanks for the tip.

[@Ebarbaccia]

If you dont have a cast iron pan I would suggest seasoning your steak first.. then wrapping it in aluminum and throwing it in the freezer. Then you can fry it on super high heat with very little oil in a good nonstick pan. Because its frozen in the middle you are able to get a really great sear on your steak. Preheat the oven to 325. Get a good sear on all sides of the steak, and then take that pan and put it directly in the oven uncovered for 15 minutes. After it comes out of the oven, put the cover of the pan on top and let it rest for another 20 minutes. I promise you it will be the tastiest most juciest steak youve had in a long time. It works best with thick cut steaks like a nice london broil, at least an inch to an inch and a half thick. Enjoy

[@myroccbox8877]

hey Ed B...why don't you make a KZbin video?...'cause frankly, almost no one is gonna see your comment and most who do won't care one bit 'cause it has pretty much nothing to do with method shown here by the ABC guys.

[@brandonelliott5345]

I feel like my steak is better than any restaurant in beef country( kcmo) and I season them throw them on a super hot fire probably 6-700 degrees. Depending on thickness you only need about 4-5 min a side and your done. I like a small chunk of wood with my coals for added flavor. Mine also get the whole side sear no grill marks.

[@johnnydelvisco5913]

What determines the level of cooking (rare, medium rare, medium well, etc.) is the temperature at the middle of the steak, not the color. Different brands and cuts of meat all have varying density and color and trying to determine how done a steak is using that method is very inaccurate.

I'm sure they're great, but if It's way too much fuss for a good steak. About 2 hours for a steak that would have been fine in a 7 min. fire. Fast and hot, is how steak is done. You made 3 small roasts.

[@lughildana]

I don't bother with it every time but in blind taste tests it wins every time.

[@odom2142]

I agree. I followed this method exactly as they said. It was a good result, but all the extra work made it maybe 5% better than usual. It came out a tad smokier than traditional searing, but again it wasn’t worth the extra time and steps.

[@skwerlee]

outstanding job guys. The cold grate sear technique is very interesting.

[@SnSGrills]

You should definitely give it a try. Works great!

[@ThePdxster]

This method works really well for thick cut steaks that have been marinated in a sugar heavy sauces like teriyaki. I used to burn the outside but with the reverse sear it comes out perfect.

[@speedsterwinston]

Great, 2.5 hours to cook a freaking steak. I'll pass and go direct.

[@BMWLDRider]

I agree. They over complicate a simple process.

[@saiga1200buck]

It's great for tubesteak

[@srt8turboawdjeep146]

lol

[@digitalnomads4277]

All good things take time. It's just a different approach, can't comment without actually trying the method.

[@Jcole3434]

Different ways of cooking depending on the circumstance.. if you just want a steak? Yeah.. you can cook it in less than 10 minutes and make it delicious.. if you got all the time in the world and want to try to make a better product? Why not?... just because a steak can be cooked in 10 minutes and be awesome doesn’t mean a 2.5 hour steak isn’t good...

[@jbitt1617]

The intro was maximum level cringe but the food looked maximum level good

[@gavinshriver246]

Excellent technique. Particularly the salting and searing parts. I think the searing method is particularly useful for sous vide steaks, where the searing method varies significantly. Thanks for the video ! I plan to try a few variations!!.

[@SinisterKnightz]

My mouth watered so much that I lost the ability to speak...spring has sprung and I've got to try this method. Much Thanks!

[@SnSGrills]

Thanks Randall! You really gotta try it. You'll love it!

[@isaacsoto8906]

This guy likes to play with his meat way too much! Reverse sear is if you want to smoke a steak and you want it to absorb some nice smoke flavor using wood. Once a steak is seared the smoke won't absorb into the meat anymore. This person is reverse searing with charcoal....

Excellent sear, looks delicious. I am going to give it a try in about three weeks when my family returns from vacations.

[@LugnutsToLasagna]

man those steaks look amazing! great job!

[@isaacsoto8906]

all that fuss and you cooked it medium dude.

[@SnSGrills]

Isaac Soto we know they look that way, but it was poor color saturation due to the lighting. If you watch this video you'll see what the color corrected steak looks like: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWLWnqWPZ82MZsk Try cooking a steak using this technique and let us know what you think! Only works if you have a sear zone like the Slow 'N Sears though.

[@techknowshaman]

The linked video is an advertisement for the slow and sear and shows no steak that has been cut. Please try again sir.

[@teal2913]

tech know shaman you should re watch the linked video because it literally shows the steak that has been cut clearly

[@grational]

Isaac, not only is the link provided with deeper color saturation to make the product they are "selling" more attractive but if if you would like to get a look at their handy craft, look at this carbonized cancer plate kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZprLn2ewo7SlmqM

[My opinion for what it's worth]...what a convoluted complicated,over technical process for grilling a steak, My goodness, The sea salt brine time is important. the room temp cook is important. The pat dry is important. The precook seasoning is important. The internal temp. is important [use a instant thermometer]. But a 50 minute reverse sear time is a little "OCD". Professional steak BBQ teams that I know of do not use this method. I'm sorry but cooking a great steak should be a lot quicker cook than this hour long process.

[@SnSGrills]

Dan this technique has been tried by MANY folks. Everyone that tries it loves it and many say it makes the best steak they ever made. The only nay-sayers, like yourself, are folks that haven't tried it. As far as steak competition... We're cooking for our families, not a judge. Competitions have specific rules about grill marks and doneness that give you an inferior result, but it makes those results consistent and thus easier to judge.

[@danjams]

Your right, Competitions have rules that don't accommodate your method . I suppose I will have to try your method to see if that extra hour of cook I can taste the difference. I'm skeptical if the prolonged reverse sear grill time is worth the effort to grill a steak. A good steak is a cut that most BBQ cooks depend on to cook [correctly using your prep guidelines] in a relatively short time while entertaining family and friends. I do use the "slow and sear" for all my low and slow cooks. It's the BOMB!

this isnt 'great steak method' its PERFECT steak method.....this isnt mass production in the least time possible. most people i know who are BBQ'ing at home would gladly wait 50 minutes and try this method.....your comment isnt 'worth' anything

[@jonathanwilliams1974]

Did I miss something? Where did you get 50 min?

[@sheryllenoble5981]

OMG! Thanks for sharing your beautiful recipe! The salt on steaks first surprised me as I always thought salt was a no-no....I can't wait to try your method!

You bet Sheryl. Let us know how it works out for you!

[@FLYBOY123456789]

Wow...of all the videos on how to cook a steak, this is by far the BEST. PERFECTLY done. And not burnt. Well done...love your technique. Gotta run...going to the butcher.
