Delmonico Style Boneless Ribeyes

NPHuskerFL

I decided to try something besides my normal S&P or APL  style steak. Went with a drizzle of canola and liberally applied Garden's Steak Blend rub. 

Brought the pit up to 700℉.


The first 3 went on direct on the CI grid. One at medium and the other two medium well. 


Mine got the caveman treatment. 


Plated.

Great cook! I cannot wait to egg again. I'm about to do it one armed. Where did you get the steaks?

hapster

Nailed it...

How did the caveman turn out? Great pic of the meat on the coals

Jeremiah

Nice. 

caliking

Nice!!!

How long each side for your caveman steak?

DMW

No beach in sight, very nice!

@MaC122 I was in a pinch and Publix had em on sale. 
@hapster Thanks!  Could've went about 30 seconds longer but , I like mine rare to a lite medium rare. I was happy with the flavor and the crust was right where I wanted it. Had the pit around 750℉ on the caveman. Finished off rolling onto the sides to crisp up the side fat. 
@SGH Thanks Scottie. 
@tarheelmatt LoL. Thanks Matthew.

Great looking cook, as usual.

NPHuskerFL

@caliking Thanks!  I went about 3 minutes per side and 30 seconds on each side end etc to meld and crisp the fat. 
@BigGreenCraig Thanks Craig. 
@blind99 Thanks man. 
@DMW  Thanks Dwayne. Not till the weekend.  I'll give you fair warning. 
@Jeremiah Thanks brotha!

Nice looking steaks Husker!

I have a question for you - I see that you typically have your cooking grid installed with the bars going side-to-side rather than front-to-back. I see others do this sometimes as well. Is there some benefit to this? I guess I usually go front-to-back so the spatula doesn't catch the bars. Just wondering...

Maybe that's the secret to all of your amazing cooks lately! I'm willing to try it if that's the case. 

NPHuskerFL

@minniemoh Thank You.   & Nope I see no benefit from the way I do it. I've done it like this from day one. I'm sorta OCD like that. In fact when our Son was egging he put it in all cockeyed and I think I went nutty.  
I guess I just like the way it looks on camera (sad to say but, that's my only reason I can come up with). Funny I've never really thought about this until you asked.

Whatever works for you Blake. I just thought maybe I was missing something. 

I think being an Egghead makes us all A LOT more OCD than most. My wife thinks I've gone nuts too. We made a nice meal for her family last night and I made the mistake of saying she was "the best kitchen assistant I could ever have..." Apparently she doesn't like the title.

@minniemoh that seems pretty PC. We call that KB (Kitchen B i t c h). And it's not at all derogatory. It's a term of endearment in my home and we each wear it proudly.  

minniemoh

We have too many nice knives nearby for me to pull that one out.

Great cook Blake, also loved the fishing pics.  Just a little jealous here.

NPHuskerFL

@Legume thanks. Don't be jelly. We caught around 15 and nice size but... they were all Blues.

From my experience, you have to commit to it before you're standing there holding the steak and looking down in to the coals or it's never going to happen.

Thanks @Mattman3969 @thegooddocta @nlovold  & @rolltidesmoker The table was a Pizza Hut prep table and we modified and customized for our egg table.

Awesome job Blake! 

cook861

Nice looking meal  i like the idea of cave man but the idea of putting my hand near  700 drgee heat is scary ( i know get welder gloves)

NPHuskerFL

@cook861 Thanks.  I used my gloves but I also just use the long reach tongs. I guess I didn't think about the high heat aspect of it. 

nolaegghead

Did cave men have gloves and tongs?  Keep authentic Blake!  Use a stick, spear or rib bone....

Nice look steaks, love the cave man!
