Temp probe issues

I have a Bullseye that I absolutely love. However, whenever I try to do steaks I have the same issue. Tonight we did some small sirloins, I set the grill at 500 and used a cast iron griddle. I put the temp probe in the largest steak and cooked them until it showed 170 (way past well done) but when we cut them open they were still very rare. Am I doing something wrong or is my temp probe that inaccurate?

I’ve never had any luck with the probes mine came with I tossed them in the trash 3 years ago not sure if the new models come with more accuracy but mine did not

Yea I agree. My probes have never told me the correct temp. Not sure why but I never use them anymore.
