Hey guys. I grilled my first ever steak a couple days ago and would like some advice/critique. I didn't sear it, mostly out of confusion about whether I was supposed to do it before cooking or after and I didn't want to screw it up. I've been following this thread for a month or so and have already learned a ton but I want to get better.
Soo when should I sear the steak? For how long? If I sear it before, do I let it rest before I put it on the grill? I just want a simple method for now.
My process for this steak:
I took the steaks out of the fridge, salted it, put it on a rack, and let it sit for an hour before cooking. I got the grill very hot and grilled it for 1:15, rotate 45 degrees, another 1:15, flip, 1:15, rotate, 1:15.
Forgot to take before pics but here they are after.

Some of the fat on the bottom of the steak added a lot of flavor and was delicious, but some of it didn't really cook and was chewy. Any advice for this?
Ok, thats it. All critiques are welcome
Thanks!
