Grilling two steaks to different temperatures?
I'm cooking steaks on a gas grill. How can I do that if my spouse likes her steak less well done than mine?
Should I put them both on the grill at the same time, but take hers off first? I don't want to do that, because then hers will be cold by the time mine is ready.
Or should I put mine on the grill first, then take them off at the same time? I heard I should cook the steaks at high temperatures with the lid open for a few minutes in order to sear them, then lower the temperature and close the lid to cook them the rest of the way. How can I start her steak by searing it if I don't start cooking her steak until my steak is already done searing? Should I wait to sear my steak until it's already been grilling for a few minutes?

Remember, for a more tender steak / it should rest, off the fire, covered for about 5 minutes before eating.
Put your steak on the grill before you put hers on the grill so they are removed atthe same time.
I like my steak cooked medium-rare. My sister likes hers cooked medium. When she grilled our steaks, she put them on the grill at the same time. To prevent mine from getting over cooked to "medium", she took my steak off of the grill and placed it on top of her steak while hers cooked for a short while longer. I have never seen that done before, but, it WORKED !

You take the rarer one off of the grill first or you could also add it to the grill while the more well done one is cooking so they both get done at he same time.

Put them on at the same time. Take hers off first. She doesnt need to wait for your steak to be done to eat hers.

I had the same "problem" with the way my husband liked his steak. He liked his well done and I like mine medium rare.
I would put our steaks on at the same time except I would cook mine from almost frozen while his were fully thawed. (I know hundreds are cringing at the fact I put a steak on the gill that was cold, it takes a long time for a piece of meat to get to room temperature and leaving a piece of meat out for an hour does not do much to change the temperature of the meat)
If I did not have a frozen steak I would put his on first probably a good 10 minutes before I put mine on. Much easier to put one on first so they are done at the same time rather than put them on at the same time and try to keep one warm while the other finishes.

Since you want them to come at the same time, put yours on first. Just remember to let them Rest for the same amount of time too.

How about putting hers on after yours... and taking them off at the same time.

Do the obvious thing - put yours on first.
I sorta think it's gonna be to complicated for you to manage!

Put on both steaks to sear them. Take hers off while yours continues to cook. Then put hers back on a couple minutes later.
or
Put yours on to sear then in a couple minutes put hers on to sear and put yours on top of hers. After hers is seared, but them side by side
