First time making NY strip

My first time making a NY strip steak. I mostly made it for my boyfriend and he likes it cooked this way. I basted it with green onion and garlic which I never done before. The only thing I want to make sure I remember for next time is to render the fat fully, I always somehow forget and try to rush and do it at the end! I found the fatty part is way tougher on the NY strip. With that being said I enjoyed the ribeye more that I made the other week but NY strip isn’t bad.
