    As long as you hit the finish-line temp the cow doesn't care how you get there.  Trust the force and the thermopen.  Give it a go-
    Cap, I can't get the Thermapen down in that fire.  My caveman cooks are by time and feel.  Just like you feel a steak on the grill, I do the same with my tongs.  Pretty reliable.

    Awesome cook!

    More importantly, what do you do with the trimmed part? Grind it up for burgers?

    Best question of the night.  Three uses.  1.  Culled for lard.  2.  Ground into venison and 3. Used to grease a skillet.

    Prime ribeyes are the best. Caveman just rocks. Great results, delicious across the board.

    A caveman has been on my guy's night checklist. Have you ever reverse seared caveman Brent?  Most of my crew likes warm but rare. Wild game makes that a tough sell but may fair better with less fat on open flame. 
    I would do a modified T-Rex.  Caveman first then indirect to temp. You won't get the caveman crust doing that part second.

    @bgebrent -  glad you are proficient with the tongs.  I have some really good fire fighter gloves so as long as remember to wear 'em I'm good.  But you are right, approaching the lava burn w/o them is not gonna happen-at least more than once =)

    Great looking steaks. I've been on a low and slow bbq quest lately.
    I've got to get some steaks soon.

    Throw primes into the fire and don't look back!  About 6 minutes flipping every 2 and get the best steaks ever.

    Never done ribeyes. Thick Porterhouse, another story. A great way to prepare. Once you take the initial plunge, you are good to go forward as another piece of amo in the arisanal.
