    Jonathon I’ll have to pass. I don’t trim fat off of ribeyes either. But his steak did look awesome. 😋

      Almost fail!

      Already had a ribeye in the fridge for tonight. Thought I’d try the seasoning part he did with letting it sit. Fired up the Weber. Set up for reverse sear. Didn’t take into account that the steak had almost reached room temp.

      After a couple of minutes indirect, checked temp, 129, argh. Did a quick minute direct heat each side. Ended up up 148. 😯🤔

      Although more done than I prefer the taste was great. Will have to adjust the cook time if I do this again. 60+ and still learning. No pics this time… Happened pretty fast.

      PapaSop I cooked another pair of porterhouse the other night and butchered it, no pink what so ever. Complete disappointment

        We both like rare steak but want the crisp fat and slight bark on the meat.
        The solution was to cook partially frozen on a screaming hot charcoal grill
        Works great for grocery meat counter steaks, about 3/4 to 1 inch thick

                  Jonesy I think it would be fun to go and sample all the foods at a competition and judge them and then be able to look at the judges sheets and see how you would compare to what they are looking at.

                      bocephus glen , I think the “real competitors” would be surprised if just regular old people (I don’t mean age) did the judging. For me, if a steak tasted great, thats more important then if the grill marks are straight.

                                        twilliams I agree, a little seasoning to enhance the flavor, but I want to taste a good steak.

                                          Here is what the SCA looks for from their site:

                                          Steaks are judged on Appearance, Doneness (Medium), Taste, Texture
                                          and Overall Impression. Tie breaker: Taste, Doneness, Texture, Appearance, and Overall
                                          Impression.
