On the way home from the Sunshine State Eggfest in Port Canaveral, I stopped by Wassi's Meat Market in Melbourne, FL. They had a fresh shipment of Prime Tomahawk Ribeyes. Each of these weighed in at a massive 57oz and were approx 3" thick. Four of these bad boys followed me home.
I started off roasting the ribeye on the XL, indirect at 250. The ribeye had been dry brined overnight, then seasoned with @MeatChurch Holy Cow rub and topped with fresh rosemary. This ribeye roasted until an internal temp of 118F, then seared in butter on a Lodge Cast Iron sear skillet atop the MIni Max. Final internal temp was 128F.
While the steak roasted, I roasted some potatoes tossed in salt, pepper, paprika and topped with fresh rosemary. These roasted for approx 45 minutes indirect at 400F.

I wish I could like the above post 10 billion times. This gets my vote for post of the century. Brother my hat is off to you. And if you ate the whole thing, you are now my hero. If I had it this would get the SGH Seal of Approval x 1000. This is without a doubt perfection personified. Take a bow sir.

I've been staring at these pictures for about 20 minutes now and only just regained enough motor function to type. Simply amazing cook! Unfortunately I can't hand out an SGH seal of approval, however this cook 100% has earned the very first......

@theyolksonyou Thank you! However i like to think I speak of behalf of John Oates on all matters BGE until his legal team advises me otherwise.
Once again...... Amazing cook @Big_Green_Craig -

Craig, I don't care what they cost. I would have paid it without batting an eye. Sometimes, the juice is worth the squeeze. Those steaks are a perfect example of such. I have never minded paying for quality. Never. Again, outstanding job brother.Big_Green_Craig said:

Oh I don't mind spending good money for quality. I'm just curious so I'm more prepared when I stumble across some meat like that.SGH said:

Success starts with the meat.

@SGH I couldn't agree more brother. When you see a piece of meat like that there is no way you can leave the store without it. Heck, if I didn't have enough cash on hand I'd probably trade the butcher my car for those steaks and walk home the happiest man in the world (plus then I could buy the new truck I've been eyeing)
