Decided to put my reverse sear skills to work last night....
- Rubbed Garlic and salt into both sides of meat and put on wire cooling rack. - Let steak rest on counter for hour and half - Bake for about 25 minutes on indirect heat of about 225 - Goal is internal temp of about 110 degrees - Pull from Grill and permit to rest while heat is cranked up to about 500 degrees - Sear both sides for 60 seconds - Pull and enjoy

Looks delicious! I'm puzzled by the term "reverse sear" though.

I highly recommend it.
Here's a good video on it. I use grill vs oven/pan, same concept though.

Reverse sear means you sear the meat after cooking to your desired temp rather than the traditional sear first then cook. This is how I usually do it. I smoke at 250 first then sear at the end to get the nice caramelization and char flavor. There is ample evidence to show that searing first does not lock in juices as popularly believed.
That is one nice looking rib eye Ronin. Excellent choice on spices and technique! I did a couple of flank steaks last night for fajitas. Marinated in Mojo and smoked at 250 for about 45 minutes then sear on a open wood fire to finish. Turned out perfect.

Reverse seared (as I do for almost all steaks) a couple of Porterhouses on the Big Green Egg last night too. Came out spectacular as well. No pics this here but trust me ~ reverse sear works!
A couple of tips > always turn it on the side and sear through some fat and ALWAYS show us a pic of the steak after cutting through it.

I reverse sear all steaks on the Weber. Here is a photo of a couple of them finishing up last week.

This is how a lot of steak houses get perfectly done steaks for you. They bring it up to temperature in a sous vide generally to rare, and can leave it there all day. Then when ordered, they'll throw it under the salamander for long enough to sear and bring it up to the ordered temperature.
