I'd say closer to 4-5 min. per side. Throw the steak on a very hot grill (pre-heat on high) to sear the outside, then turn down to medium high. That'll give you a good medium rare to medium steak.

4 Min 15 seconds works great for me for thick strips. Red inside. I get a kick out of my buddies who can tell when the steak is done by looking at the outside. How do they see what color the inside is?

If the steak is good enough salt and pepper is all that is needed.
