No questions on my end, although we're on a Trailblazer, we get great sears with our grill plates, and typically use an internal grill temp of 450. We're still new at this, and we may still experiment with some other temps, but we really do appreciate the flexibility and capability that comes with the use of the grill plates.

How did you do it?
Didja take the steaks off and then crank up the heat or cook the whole time on the grates?

I used the reverse sear technique. Cooked them low and slow off the grates, then put the grates on and cranked it up. When hot, I put the steaks on for maybe 4 minutes per side (rotating 90 degrees at the 2 minute mark)

Looks like the grates gave a lot of extra heat
