I've been messing with mine for a while and have learned 1) make sure to dry meat very well before searing in cast iron 2) no need to rest meat afterwards and 3) while you CAN cook for extended periods of time, longer is not always better. Texture is affected after a certain point.
I'm with some of the above posters. In MY opinion, no butter/oil in the bag. Save that for the cast iron...
"Intuitively, you may think that adding a flavorful fat, like butter or olive oil, will in turn help create a more flavorful steak. In fact, it turns out that this achieves the opposite goal: It dilutes flavor. Fat-soluble flavor compounds dissolve in the melted butter or oil and end up going down the drain later. Similarly, flavors extracted from aromatics end up diluted. For best results, place your seasoned steak in a bag with no added fats."
Lots of good info regarding differing cook times, temps, etc of steak, complete with side-by-side comparisons.

I usually don't put any butter or anything in the bag either. I have found that if doing steaks or venison, I like to take the juice that is left over inside the bag and add to some mushrooms with a little red wine and butter in a pan on the stove and cook down. Adds some really good flavor.
