For outdoor cooking fans, nothing beats grilling a steak on a warm, sunny day. Steak lovers take their craft seriously, and want their equipment to be up to the task. 

Challenge accepted. 

Here’s how long it takes to cook four types of steak to medium rare on The Model G2 Electric Grill. For all your steaks, we recommend you use the food probes provided with your Model G2 combined with the Current® App and preset doneness temps to ensure cook accuracy.

How Long Do I Cook A Ribeye?

The ribeye is a mouthwatering piece of meat that’s famous for the rich flavor from its marbling. The ribeye tastes best when it’s seared hot and fast to develop a crust.

Preheat the Model G2 Electric Grill to a medium-high heat, around 500℉ (260℃). Cook three to five minutes per side, holding the steak on its side to ensure a good sear on the fat cap of the ribeye. It’s going to keep cooking after being removed (carryover cooking), so let your ribeye rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

How Long Do I Cook A Flank Steak?

The flank steak may be lean, but it’s packed with a bold and beefy taste and texture perfect for marinating, and serving as fajitas, carne asada, or stir-fries. You’re going to want to cook it hot and fast.

Preheat your Model G+ to 550℉ (287.8℃). When it’s hot and ready, cook your flank steak for two to four minutes per side. Let it stand for at least ten minutes, then slice against the grain when done for maximum tenderness.

How Long Do I Cook a New York or Kansas City Strip?

The strip steak is a steakhouse favorite and for good reason. With its rich marbling, beefy flavor, and tender juiciness, it’s a steak bite that can’t be beat. The strip steak can be boneless (New York Strip) or bone-in (Kansas City Strip), but either way, the cooking is the same. 

Preheat your Model G+ to a piping hot 525℉ (273.8℃). Depending on thickness of steak, sear for three to six minutes per side. If a large fat cap exists, hold it with tongs and sear on its side for an additional 30 to 60 seconds. Let it rest for about ten minutes, then serve.

How Long Do I Cook a Filet Mignon?

The filet mignon has a mild beefy flavor, but its buttery texture and tenderness are second to none. It’s best when lightly seasoned and cooked to no more than medium-rare to preserve its tenderness. 

With the Dual-Zone activated, preheat one side of the grill to 500ºF (260℃) and the other to 400ºF (204.4℃). Sear the filet for three to five minutes per side at 500ºF (260℃). Move filets to the lower temp end of the grill and cook both sides for an additional three to five minutes, depending on desired doneness and thickness of cut. Let rest for at least 10 minutes, then serve.
