This clown likes oak with red meat. I have to ask why your not reverse searing it? Seems that reverse sear has the better c.hance of soaking in some smoke?LBGE& SBGE———————————————•———————– Pennsylvania / poconos

I really like oak with beef, but for some reason with tenderloin I'm thinking cherry.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

I really like mesquite on beef, FWIW. Only meat I'll use it on.They/Them

Taste was phenomenal - melt in your mouth good. If you have the means, I highly recommend the recipe."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

Did you stick to the recipe pretty close? I want to do this soon. How did the herb spoon work?LBGE& SBGE———————————————•———————– Pennsylvania / poconos

Almost. I didn't sear it quite as long - just two minutes on each side. I also had a slightly bigger hunk of meat - about 7 lbs. So it took quite a bit longer to cook - about an hour total. The herb spoon works OK - it's kind of falling apart toward the end.grege345 said:Did you stick to the recipe pretty close? I want to do this soon. How did the herb spoon work?

That looks perfect, nicely done.APL's board dressing technique is flawless. Don't be afraid to run all of the pieces through it before serving. I usually skip the herb brush step, due to cost, availabilty, and a little laziness.
Some whine about the extra steps in his recipes, but he has so many techniques that change the way you serve any protein.

Nicely done!! You can't go wrong with an APL recipe if you have the time, patience & stamina. You hit it out of the park.

I tried the herb brush for the first time the other night (I usually skip it for the same reasons), but I think it made a difference. I won't do it every time, but if I'm showing off or cooking for a group, I think it's worth the effort.

Whole thing probably takes a couple of hours start to finish, and probably can be done inside of an hour with a small enough tenderloin."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

That looks amazing! I cant wait to try one of APL's board dressing . . .Columbus, OH

Making this tomorrow for Mothers day. I can't decide if I should sear first, then let the egg cool and roast after that, or do a reverse sear. I was surprised when APL said to use two zone cooking, I thought he was an egg guy!How did you set up your cook?Simi Valley, California

I did mine by searing on cast iron on the spider then cooking it the rest of the way on the top level of the adjustable rig. His recipe is awesome

I seared it first then dropped the PS in - seemed to work just fine. Probably the best thing I've cooked so far on the Egg. Good luck!SoCal_Griller said:Making this tomorrow for Mothers day.

I have the AR so will probably go with searing on the spider first. So I was thinking of bringing the egg up to 500 for the sear, then pull and drop the temp to 350 for the finish.Simi Valley, California

I don't have an AR ( next purchase!) myself but my concern would be the time it might take to cool down the Egg to 350 after it gets that hot. What's nice about the PS is that it's a decent sized heat sink.SoCal_Griller said:I have the AR so will probably go with searing on the spider first.
