Wife has been complaining....
« on: May 29, 2013, 08:15:32 PM »
That I haven't made her steak in a really long time as I've been smoking too much 'bulk' stuff on the WSM. 
Huh,,, challenge accepted.  And on a Wed night - she didn't even see it coming.  lol
.
Fired up the newer Performer with a ring of RO Lump.  I've been using my expanded steel charcoal ring as is, but very recently wired it to a charcoal grate for an 18" to help retain the smaller bits of lump from dropping into the ash can.
.

.
Spuds in the 12" CI skillet to get the party started
.

.
As long as I was outside.....  I used the Genesis for the 10.25" CI skillet full of sprouts, fungi, & onion.
.

.
Spuds are 'bout done, so a few 'maters jumped in the pool.
.

.
Couple-a T-bones gettin' happy with EVOO, salt, & peppa
.

.
Yeah, that'll be warm enough...  And this is where my action shots stop as I tossed in a handful of apple chips, replaced the cooking grate, and put the meat to the grill.  It all happens in a matter of seconds, but so does the flare up of apple chips.  I try to get the lid on ASAP and no time for photos.
.

.
Genesis did her job and these guys are done.
.

.
After resting about 10 minutes, I cut the filet off of one.
.

.
Wifey & I share one - her the filet and I the bone/strip.  This pile of yum is all mine. 
.

.
Wifey is happy and THAT is all that matters.  lol

That looks pretty good. Beef is on the menu here as well. I'll be heading out for some groceries in a few minutes and will be checking to see if sprouts are still in sale. (Not in the sale flyer... but red peppers are! And I just finished the last of the previous batch of roasted red pepper dip last week. :D )

Good use of cast iron as well. It is well suited to the grill.
kettles, smokers...

That is a fine looking meal there! Thanks for sharing.  :D

I am wondering what the diameter of the basket is that you fabricated?
I happen to have some of that stuff kicking around, and I need a project.  ??? 8)
