TRex,[p]I was thinking along the lines of platters of food under the egg all topped with a box, taking the place of presents.

Nice card. How did you stuff the Hot Pepper Cheese? Roll the sausage out and add? I like the sausage and pepper cheese idea.

Rick's Tropical Delight,
Did you win the BGE photo contest? If not....you should have submitted it.[p]Kim

I wish I had taken a picture of mine last week. We made a home version of the McRib. It included mild sausage pressed into long patties. We used DP Swamp venom, turbindao and mary's cherry rub to season. I smoked them at 275 until done and then finished direct with blue's hog red sauce. The bun was done with sauce and a little mary's rub sprinkled on.[p]There is a good reason there are no pictures. They were gone, fast![p]Gene

TRex,
What would be the internal temp on that steak?
Thanks

HungryMan,[p]Funny you should ask - this was one of the few times that I actually checked the internal temperature rather than going by touch, just because I was curious. [p]I removed it at 121 internal and let rest under foil for 5 minutes - so probably something close to 125.[p]Cook time went like this: Rest steak at room temp for 1 hour. Sear at 650 for 90 seconds per side (I was in a hurry, didn't wait for the higher sear temps), rest on counter for 20 minutes (not under foil), back on Egg for about 6.5 minutes per side at 400. Remove and let rest (now under foil) for 5 minutes. This was cooked on the Mini. The roast period was longer than usual because of the lower searing temps.[p]Hope this helps,[p]TRex

TRex,[p]great looking steak! for some reason, even though i do exactly what you jsut described, my steaks (usually a 1 to 1.5 inch thick NY strip) don't ever come out as red on the inside, even though the thermapen reads about 120 when i pull it. i really want my steak red in the middle, a little bit rarer than medium rare, and a little bit more done than rare. but it never turns out that way. instead, it's always a bit more done than i like, and hence, more tough...[p]maybe it's b/c i don't rest it long enough before eating it. i usually scarf it down about a minute or two after it's finished.[p]any tips? i've been making T-Rex steaks for a couple of years now...but still can't perfect it, i guess.

TRex,
I have been using your method for a while. I usually guess. I need to invest in a thermopen. The one time I have guests, I will over cook it. Sometimes I reverse it and other times I do the whole cook at 400. It all tastes good.
Thanks

KaiserJorge,[p]First of all, try a thicker steak. 1.5" is the thinnest I would cook using my method - I usually buy closer to 2". 1" is too thin for using this method. Buy a 2" thick steak next time and I guarantee you'll get better results.[p]Besides thickness, are you allowing the steak to come up to near room temp before searing? That's one of the biggest mistakes a lot of folks make.[p]The final rest before serving is important - it allows the juices to stay in the meat, instead of running out onto the plate when you cut into the steak, leaving the steak less juicy.[p]If none of this works for you, maybe your thermapen is slightly off - try pulling at 115 instead of 120.[p]Hope this helps![p]TRex

Lawn Ranger,[p]Those pictures make me wish that I never left Texas.

TRex,[p]as always...great advice! thanks!!![p]for one-inch steaks (which seems to be all i can get around here), what would you recommend temp wise? 400, 500, 600??? i'm looking for a great char on the outside, and lots of pink/red in the middle...

KaiserJorge,[p]For 1" steaks, I do roughly this:
