FAQs
I recommend cooking your steaks over high heat. The griddle should be set to 500 degrees F or greater. This will give you an awesome sear on the outside. ~ 4 – 5 minutes per side for cooking. And be sure to rest the steaks after cooking to allow the juices to reabsorb into the steak.
If you’re looking for a medium finish, you should pull your steaks off the griddle once they reach 130 – 135 degrees F. While the steaks rest, the internal temperature will rise to 140 – 145 degrees F.
For a medium rare finish, pull the steaks off of the griddle once the internal temperature reaches 120 – 125 degrees F. When checking a steak’s internal temp, measure it in the thickest part of the steak.
You can be creative here. Any BBQ dry rub will work. You could marinate it as well or keep it simple and season with salt and pepper only.

Meat thermometer recommendations
Every home chef needs a reliable meat thermometer to cook food perfectly.
On Sip Bite Go, you’ll often see me using:
- Meater thermometer – a fancy wireless thermometer that connects to a phone app – gifted to me from a Traeger partnership.
- ThermoPro digital thermometer – which has a wire that connects the thermometer to a display box outside the oven/grill.
It’s like being psychic! The great thing about either of the thermometers above is that I don’t have to take the food out of the oven to know the temperature.
How to use ‘em… What I do is stick the digital thermometer in steak, pork, chicken, whatever… Then put the food in the oven, on the smoker, or grill.
While the meat cooks, it reads the temperature so I know exactly what temp meat is as it’s cooking. Without having to take it out and check. It’s really difficult to overcook food when you know exactly what temp it is inside!
