Searing bone in Rib eye in the BGE

[porknpuha]

Does anyone have good success on searing a rare/medium rare rib eye in the BGE?

I have some pics good flavor cooked to liking but sear is light at best.

Was cooking with direct heat charcoal @ 400

I would be happy with that.   Beautiful looking steak.

Thank you c farmer,

Don't get me wrong I'm happy and this one tasted great. Just looking for a little advice to go over the top and get a harder sear without having to place a 2 inch steak.

I don't have a egg, maybe someone that does will see this.

I have a Kamado.

I heat it way up.

Sears it in no time.

I like a thin bark. So a proper sear to me is important.

700? Way up.

700? Way up.

I toss it when it is about 600.

It's all timing because I keep the top down.

It doesn't take long at all.
