Interesting, never would have tried that. If you did it again, would
you eat it "as is" or would you toss it on a hot grill for some sear?

Forget where I saw it, but tried an oven method once. Put the steak in
a 200 degree oven until it gets to about 100 degrees and finish on the
grill. OK, but not worth repeating.
