Reverse Seared Chuck Eye

[Jason]

I did a reverse sear on these, using small red oak splits. Kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper, with a light coating of EVOO.

These are about 1lb each and close to 2" thick.



CI Skillet potatoes and a mushroom too.



My dinner!
I simmered the fresh green beans in chicken broth, sliced onion and bacon bits, till tender.



Once the steak hit 125* internal, I pulled them off, while I got the wood burned down a bit. The steaks got about 2 minutes on each side, flipping and rotating a few times. I have done this cook several times and really enjoy the flavor that the wood adds to it. The Chuck Eye isn't as visually appealing as a Rib Eye, but is just as tasty and tender to me!

Thanks guys!

The steaks ended in the 145* range. Very tasty and half the cost of a comparable rib eye.

Very nice. I love chuckeyes, but I never see them around here

[Jason]

They are usually available at all of the Von's around here. That is the only place I have ever seen them.

You need to try them  !!  I have not found any 2" thick though. If I do they are definitely coming home with me !

Damn, that looks great!
I can never seem to get the reverse sear just right, you got me rethink things though

If I see the butcher when I'm shopping, I'll stop and ask them questions about getting stuff that isn't in the cases. Most of them are willing to talk and might hook you up with your request.

Thanks! I cooked these like mini tri-tips and cut them the same too.
