Dry-aged Steak, Fine Wine, and Fries

With apologies to those of you in colder climates, it is a gorgeous 58 degrees out right now in South Florida so I wanted to be outside as much as possible.  Convinced wife that we should have steaks (OK, didn't take much convincing).

Decided on a 24 oz dry-aged Flannery porterhouse for me and a 10 oz dry-aged rib cap medallion for her. Seasoned with Morton & Bassett's Italian Seasoning and coarse Fleur de Sel.

Wine is a 2004 Saxum James Berry Vineyard Bone Rock

Fries will be Restaurant Depot seasoned fries made in the Cajun Fryer.

Steaks will be reverse seared at 350 indirect using PS woo-CI and the BGE CI grid.

Wine has mellowed considerably from its younger days, but still drinking fine.

More photos later.

    I always enjoy seeing things I'm jealous of.
    That looks like it going to be delicious.

    That's funny.  Most of us are jealous of the food and wine.  Being in Chicago, @blind99 is jealous of the weather.

    @Foghorn you'd better believe it. I like winter and all but right now it's 2 degrees outside.  Only thing I'm looking foreword to outside today is firing up the egg.

    Now I have a vision of you standing around your egg like a homeless man hovering over a trash can fire.

    I don't know anything about wine but those steaks look killer!
