SRF Flat Iron Steak

WAHOO_EGGER_CVILLE

Snake River Farms does it again!  My wife asked for a nice steak dinner on the Big Green Egg for her 30th Birthday.  We had a Flat Iron steak waiting in the freezer and decided tonight was the night let it shine. 

For Christmas I received a Kick Ash Basket and a cast iron grill grate.  We decided tonight was the night to give everything a go, and man did it come together like a well oiled machine.

 I cooked this gorgeous cut of meat with the draft door completely open and no Daisy Wheel.  Once the Egg reached 650-700 I added the steaks.  I cooked for 1 min 15 seconds then turned 45 degrees for another 1 minute and 15 seconds (same side, attempted to produce diamond markings).  I then flipped the steak and followed the same steps for a total direct cooking time of 5 minutes. Once the cook was complete I pulled and let sit for 10 minutes uncovered.   My wife and I prefer a more rare-medium rare cook and this was spot on to our taste.  Snake River Farms cuts of meat are unbelievable but the Big Green Egg produces the best cooks I have ever tasted!

@YukonRon just salt for the cook and pepper after the cook.

@Grillmagic Thanks man.  I was able to purchase the Cyber Monday Special that included the flat iron, two ribeye fielts, and the ribeye cap.  Have not cooked the ribeye cap yet, that will be a special one!  The cuts of beef are incredible from SRF, the marbling and texture is second to none.  I can not afford to have these regularly, however for special occasions I will definitely make an exception.

I bet that Rib Eye Cap will set a new standard, I have had there Ribeyes as well and they were Great.

How much did that flat iron steak cost?

Raymont

@slovelad: Regular Price: $53/lb for SRF Black and $66/lb for SRF Gold. 

WAHOO_EGGER_CVILLE

@slovelad It was a special that consisted of a 1flat iron steak (gold grade), 2 ribeye filets (gold grade), and 1 Cap of Ribeye (gold grade)  for $299

slovelad

I know you guys love that stuff... But man... I just cannot get over that hump to spend that... I really want to though.. It s a mental block lol

When I win the Powerball this weekend I will only buy beef and pork from SRF. I will also have them ship everything fresh (not frozen) like when transporting human organs. It will of course be transported in a Yeti 250. The helicopter delivery will be able to land on my yacht. My only remaining worry is that off shore winds could effect my overnight brisket cooks. I don't want to be woken unnecessarily from my stateroom slumber every time the stoker/ciberIQ goes off.

@slovelad I was very hesitant about spending the money for the steaks, and honestly would not have done it if it wasn't on sale over 60% off.  I can not afford to have these steaks regularly but I had to give them shot.
