What did everyone cook today?

Jonathon - looks fantastic

The cap on that ribeye was seriously the best steak I’ve ever cooked. I am changing my reverse sear process to what I did last night. I have a pellet grill with the grill grates which make the surface of the grill grates around 100° hotter than the ambient temperature of the grill.
Old Process was 150° F until the internal temp of the meat was 115° or so. Then pull it, jack grill up and finish it off just a minute or two at most a side. Pull at 127 and let it rest/dwell

New process is 160° F just until the internal temp is 95° and then jack temp up to max and cook till 127° F and pull and let it rest dwell. Those few extra minutes a t high heat it takes to reach 127 from 95 REALLY made a big difference on the grill marks and maillard effect. So good!

Jonathon maybe flip your grates over for a more flattop affect and an all over sear.

Tex_77 So this could get controversial quickly but I don’t like ribeyes on a flattop!. I think it has a tendency to curl the meat like a Porkchop. Now, that could easily be solved with more trimming or some cuts in the fat but I don’t want to do that, I want the fat and my dogs would revolt if I stopped cooking it and giving it to them!

I am aware that not everyone is going to agree that Ribeyes do this but this is why I stopped using a cast iron pan to sear mine.

calldoctoday
Well dam… Ok… beat the censor. You’ve been busy!

[calldoctoday]

PapaSop Yeah, I saw that & realized it just as I hit submit before changing it up a bit & there it was, amazing!

[Jonathon]

calldoctoday I echo PapaSop my goodness man, have you been saving those pictures up or was the local college football team at your house this weekend?

[Jonathon]

Your pastrami looks delicious, as does everything but specifically that pastrami!

[calldoctoday]

Jonathon & PapaSop Well, I have been very busy & out on the road, so that is why I have not been able to keep up with a few photos. Then I got busy again last week trying to not loose a bunch of those Satsumas, Lemons, & Persimmons. Thank you, I would have to agree with both of you, everything was very good, but that Pastrami was something, man! Whew! that was good!
