Steaks on the kettle

[JDLones]

I said that I'd do steaks this weekend.  Here they are.

Getting the charcoal going


The steaks are on along with a couple of nailed potatoes.  My better half wanted filet.  I, of course, prefer a ribeye.   


I thought they turned out well. Mine tasted great.  It's amazing the difference a little smoke makes.


Thanks for looking.

You sure didn't skimp on the charcoal.  lol  Great lookin steaks!
Made steak & (sweet) taters on the grill last night!  (along with lobster tail, asparagus, and roasted red pepper)
Much like your household, I prefer a ribeye or NY strip while wifey loves her filet.
Those are pretty big taters, how did the nails work out?

[JDLones]

Yeah, I've got to get a feel for how much charcoal is needed for a cook.  Ha!!  The nails worked well. I put the potatoes on right after I dumped the coals and left them on for about 10 minutes after I pulled the steaks and they were done.  No complaints.

Good looking steaks.

I picked up the nails last fall. I like them. I cook mine using the "basement potatoes" method.. cooking them down with the coals nails and all. Steaks look great too!

[JDLones]

That's a good idea.  I may try that next time.  Thanks for the tip.

Nice job...can't go wrong with steak and potatoes!   how do you like the nails? Do they help to cook them evenly?
