And I'm glad you shared it, since it's the antithesis of my fillet mignon methods. I use the technique recommended by Jeff Smith, where you heat a cast iron skillet for ten minutes on very high heat, marinate your steak in olive oil, garlic, pepper, etc, then go with the sear method for roughly 4-5 minutes on each side, then letting the steak rest a few minutes once removed from the heat. This results in a VERY juicy medium rare steak that is nicely carmelized without the black bits of a true "Pittsburgh Rare." Interesting technique!
