Emma, your reverse sear ribeye sounds fantastic. I personally lean towards grilling sirloins. The balance of tenderness and robust flavor is just right. For seasoning, I enjoy a simple mix of salt, pepper, garlic, and smoked paprika. Letting the steak rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling helps even cooking. To achieve those grill marks, I start with high heat, searing each side for a few minutes, then lower the heat to complete cooking to preference. Any tips for enhancing smoked flavor or other taste boosters are welcome!

I prefer filet mignon while grilling for its tenderness. Sometimes, I enhance it with compound butter for a richer taste. My seasoning typically includes sea salt, fresh ground pepper, and thyme. A tip from my side: allow your steak to rest after grilling. I usually let it sit for about 10 minutes under foil before serving, allowing juices to redistribute, providing a juicy steak. For a smoky aroma, I use apple or cherry wood chips soaked for some time before placing them on the grill. These add a rich, smoky scent that complements the meat. Looking forward to more ideas!
