Place the steak on the Traeger grill and set a timer for 2 minutes.

After 2 minutes, twist the steak for better grill marks and close the lid, setting another timer for 2 minutes.

Flip the steak after a total of 4 minutes and repeat the process for the Weber steak.

After another 2 minutes, check the internal temperature of both steaks, aiming for 122-123 degrees.

Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and pour the juices from the platter over them.
