Smoked at 225 degrees (smoker grate temp) to internal 120 degrees and then seared over the coals to 125 internal.
Slathered with EVOO, then a coating of coarse salt and black pepper and then a second coat of Montreal steak seasoning.

Apple chunk and cherry wood chips for smoke, meat placed opposite coals.

Once the ribeye hit 115 internal pulled it and bunched up the coals and opened all the vent to get them glowing orange.

Seared over hot coals brought internal temp to 125 and then pulled them to rest for 10 minutes.

The perfect rare steak.

Looks awesome. About how long did it take to get to 115? (This isn't for me, I'm asking for a friend :p)

It was definitely under two hours and more than one. Not very long but I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention to the time like I normally do. Went by the maverick probe temp not time.
 
That looks tasty! I plan to do a reverse sear this weekend...but will sear on my blackstone griddle. I've never done it before. Will go with a chunk of pecan and a chunk of cherry.
 
I did this earlier on in the year and they were outstanding! Can't wait to do it again. Yours look real tasty!
