Ribeyes were on sale, got a nice one close to 2 inches thick.

Plan is salt and pepper, sit at room temp for half hour.

Oven at 275, cook until internal temp 120 or so?

Pull from oven, wrap in foil, sit for 15 min.

Get cast iron screaming hot.

Both sides of steak for a minute or so.

Sound good?

That's just too big. But if you have the time put the oven as low as it will go. At 200 you are probably looking at a few hours.

275 isn't a reverse sear to me. It will cook and brown ant that temp.

No need to wrap in foil. Just let sit out for 15 minutes.

250-275 is perfect and put the steak on a grill grate. If you have a convection oven use this setting as it will dry out the outside of the steak and enhance the sear.

you guys focus too much on the time. It's all about temp and using your thermometer.

Do 225 degrees until the meat reaches 120. let rest until carryover temp stops climbing. then sear the outside.

it's not that hard.

Place the steak on a rack so it's not touching the cast iron when you're doing the low temp part

Looks about right. The only thing I'd change (as someone else pointed out) is:

Don't wrap in foil. You want the carryover cooking to dissipate, not prolong. Wrapping in foil will effect this and further cook your meat.

Take it out the oven, let it rest while you get the cast iron super hot and then sear. I like to throw butter and garlic into the cast iron for the sear. It gets dark brown and adds a nice flavor to the steak. Others may disagree with this I'm sure, but I like it plenty
