My bride wanted steak tonight and suggested filet mignon, I saw this as an opportunity
to try Steamy Kitchen's "How to Turn Cheap “Choice” Steak into Gucci “Prime” Steak."
This along with the Greg Rempe "Reverse Sear."
I started with two 10 oz. rib eyes. I really wanted 1"+ steaks, but these 3/4" were the best I could do.

Coated them with Kosher salt for 15 minutes.

After the 15 minutes I rinsed them and patted them very dry.
Threw them on the OTG at 250° until I got a internal of 100°, only took
about 15 minutes. Tented them with foil and opened up the OTG and got
it up to 400° and put the steaks back on for about 3 minutes per side.

And here with green beans and a baked potato. I can not honestly say I noticed a huge
difference with the salting, but my bride said it was great. I was a little worried when I
told her I had gotten rib eyes rather than the fillets I could tell she was disappointed
and thought I may be sleeping in the doghouse.

My conclusion is ... Steamy Kitchen process was to make Choice into Prime, not
rib eye into fillets so I can't say I was being totally fair. I do think I would
do it again, if my bride is happy I'm happy.
