CookingMama's post with the Potatoes inspired the vegetal part of my meal! I found a store that discounts it's meat significantly on the expiration date. I bought this Ribeye apprx 2 weeks ago and let it age in the fridge.
Tonight I pulled it out, washed it, dried it off, and and lightly salted both sides. I let it sit for close to an hour.
To save some time, I put holes in the potatoes, and microwaved them for 4 min to speed up the cook time. I quartered the potatoes, seasoned them in salt, fresh ground pepper, fresh crushed garlic, & fresh ground Rosemary.
They were done in about 20mins.
I borrowed this technique from Meathead at amazingribs. I filled my chimney with a row of blue bag Kingsford, and alternating rows of mesquite lump.
I placed a small grate over the chimney and began searing my steak. I finished cooking in about 8 mins. The steak was cooked medium well. The next time I'll probably shoot for 5 to 6 minutes. (Med rare)
Here is a finished pic of my plate.
p.s. There were some more coals left so I threw on two center cut porkchops!
