This past weekend I was cooking steaks for me and the wife. I had a ribeye filet and she had a filet mignon - both were pretty close in thickness. I wanted mine cooked to 130, but she's preggo, so she has to go to a minimum of 145. I brought the kettle up to a steady 250. I popped hers on first, waited for it to come up 15 degrees, then tossed mine on. My steak quickly caught and blew past hers. Mine reached temp about 15 minutes before hers. I pulled mine, wrapped it in foil, and threw it on top of the lid of the grill to keep it warm, but it ended up cooking way more than I had anticipated.
Does anyone have any tips/suggestions for aligning completion times when cooking multiple pieces of meats to different temperatures? Struggling with a 15 degree temp differential makes the thought of cooking for myself as well as those who like well done steak a little intimidating (I swear those friends have other redeeming qualities )!
