Not sure where I heard it, but I was told when you reverse sear on a cast-iron, you should use as little oil as possible, you shouldn’t move the stake at all and ideally use a grill press.
Was not happy with the results I was getting so tried the approach in this video: https://youtu.be/\_TXzYVkSYuc?t=8m43s
Basically, I used a ton of avocado oil, and slowly moved the steak around for about a minute on each side.
Pretty happy with the outcome. And the texture/taste was incredible

You know damn well what we think, looks incredible!
Impressive, that much sear/crust and fat render for that level of doneness.
Oh dang… that looks goooood
That cow did not die in vain. Great cook on that beautiful slab.
I use a decent amount of oil and it makes for a mean sear and also better heat transfer to the fat for a better render, moving the oil around the pan every now and then for the sides. Looks really really good hot damn that is pretty much perfect, nothing burned, but standing on the wire. Reminds me of perfect crust on bread when the caramelization is so good it’s knocking on the door of burnt, but not so.
It looks good and you know it, show off!
That’s a great looking steak. Did you cook to a temp before searing? I like to use ghee in the pan.
I would consume every last bite, nicely done.
One of the best looking steaks I’ve seen on here. That said, I haven’t been on here for very long.
You single?
Looks fantastic
Looks like you staked a claim… to BEEF CITY!
Looks great! I move mine around too and it helps with getting a good crust.
Very nice. Looks pretty damn perfect to me. Now I want to make steak tonight…..
That’s more or less my method. Moving in circles and more frequent flipping is where it’s at.
I’m regretting using rotisserie for my similar cut last night when I could have got this nice result from pan frying
It looks fantastic to me
Now I’m hungry
I don’t get the point of using less oil for steak. The meat does not absorb oil. In fact, you end up with more oil in the pan in the end.
Maybe it’s for when searing at very high temperatures where oil will likely burn and splatter.
Anyway, nice looking steak!
This looks absolutely money bro ! 🔥
Looks great external and internal
I’m in love with it
Mmmm looks crusty
Yes, please! You deliver, right?
Oh, and could ya whip me up some Mac and Cheese too? 😁
I fucking love rib eye so much. The best crust hands down.
Absolutely beautiful sear
Bruh you know that was fire . Avo oil is my go to if I have no tallow. Nice shallow fry after the oven is choice. Nice work
Nice job. Nice crust. Nice doneness.

Very even.
Your steak looks like Australia. So, good job
