SV SRF Ribeye Filet w/balsamic and red wine sauce on bed of mixed greens salad

tarheelmatt

Playing around more with the SV.  Thought I'd give two SRF ribeye filets a go.  

Went 129° for around 90 minutes.  Little salt and pepper, butter, into the bag, and into the pot.  I meant to pick up some rosemary and thyme at the grocery store, but I forgot.  Still tasted pretty good.  

Here's the story....

1 - The lineup




2 - Ready for the hot tub



3 - Taking a bath




4 - Getting personal here




5 - Hanging out, getting ready for the CI skillet to get hot in the medium Egg.  Butter and garlic is for spoon goodness after first flip.  



6 - Sauce is coming right along (and making a freaking mess on the top I just cleaned). 



7 - Looking mighty fine




8 - I couldn't decide on which on I liked, so I posted both.  



9 -  They're done..




10 - Made some herbed scalloped potatoes to go along with the steak






11 - I like the way this dish came together.  Simple mixed greens (arugula, chard, spinach salad with simple vinaigrette)





  

Thanks for taking a look!

Nice cook there, indeed. Hope it was as enjoyable as it looked.

Everything looks outstanding brother Tar. But those potatoes put it over the top. On a good day, I can eat a whole pan of scalloped potatoes. Great job all the way around.

He left the taters off his plate, so I'm guessing he just stole my usual move of eating with a giant spoon straight outta the pan.

Hahah... Well, I could have done that. Had them on the side.

You pull some mighty fine grub buddy yourself.  Don't cut yourself short.

Yeah, he's my hero, however I'm certain I've been doing this type of staging/photography before him.

I think Matt's been holding that pic back, waiting to drop the mic.

The sliced picture just didn't do it for me. I take them, but usually don't like them. I see others sliced pictures and they look way better. 

Biggreenpharmacist

Not many pics on here look better than that one.

You're giving @BigGreenCraig a run for the money!

Oh, I had that in hand buddy!  Just not a dirty one like @THEBuckeye likes!  

piney said:

Thanks @piney.  Did you make @bgebrent behave?  He was probably so disappointed that I wasn't there, he probably was over by a tree in the fetal position, with a rose clinched between his teeth, and half naked.

Pretty sure we all think his photography skills are pretty good.  He's clearly on a learning curve so lets everybody keep pumping
