It’s not about thaw time, considering each protein is different thickness. Your determination is when the temperature is achieved, then as you know the protein can be left at the temp for hours until you are ready to remove.

I rarely cook from solid frozen, but remove a few hours ahead. If dropped in solid frozen, a home unit would probably take 1-2 hours to come to temp. I would also drop in frozen when you start the device, that way the water will slowly warm the frozen steak
