Big ribeye!

michaelmilitello · August 31, 2018, 05:49:29 PM

Tried something new tonight. I had a 24 oz bone in ribeye saved in the freezer since the Fourth of July. Our Meijer had them on sale with fancy Frenched bones. I was waiting for a good occasion to cook it.

I was interested by some videos comparing the pit barrel cooker to the WSM, so I decided after watching a Kosmo Q video with a pbc to cook my steak on the WSM without the water pan.

A half chimney of royal oak lump with a half chimney of lit to lump gave me 350 at the grate. The steak took about an hour. No wood for smoke. Just beef fat dripping.

Steak was rubbed with my homemade bbq rub. Pulled at 127 f. Possibly the best steak I've ever eaten.

Did you sear it? That looks amazing!

Any time you cook a steak like that is a special occasion in my opinion...

And you did it justice...

Awesome cook. Can't wait to try that. How often did you flip?

No. The direct heat, albeit 2 feet, had good texture. Not quite the same as high heat. I would not do this with a thin steak.

I went to dinner for work 2 weeks ago. The other company was paying I got a 8oz filet mignon for 50.00 and it didn't look that good! Next time I'll bring them to you and you cook it. 3 of us with drinks, soup, salad, and appetizers almoust 300.00 with tip. I'll take a backyard bbq anytime over that!
