Just loved this. Celebrating midsummers eve with this wonderful peace of meat. Mountain cow, 14 weeks of dry aging. Going slow until 125, then a little rest while assembling the salad (lettuce, rocket, burrata, sundried tomatoes, basil, olive oil, vinegar, Parmesan, s&p). Forgot to buy asparagus, so I charred some scallions instead (asparagus would have been better). 
Welded the meat. Sat down. Enjoyed. 

Have a a nice weekend, everyone!

    That is a great looking steak.

    Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
    "Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

    Thanks for the kind words! Tomorrow I’ll grill some Iberico meat (Secreto Iberico). Is that common in the US?

    Fine job. Looks delicious.

    Those pictures deserve to be featured in an issue of "Food & Wine" magazine, including the cover page!

    Where did you source 14 week dry aged mountain cow?  I know it's not accessible to us over here in the US, but I was just curious.  Is that easily sourced for you?  The marbling appears perfect!

    And, your lettuce is better than our lettuce.

    And, no, secreto iberico is not common over here.  I'm trying to understand the cut with an internet search.  Can you explain it?  Then, I'll have to start working on sourcing that.

    Not easy to find good meat where I live, but there is this one store where the meat is local and taken WELL care of. Great store but not the one you fill your freezer from...

    I actually haven’t tried the iberico myself yet, but it is Spanish originally. I live in Sweden and it has become quite a thing here. I was going to try this recipe today (you can read a little about it as well in the link): https://hankstruebbq.com/secreto-iberico/
    Well, I thawed the meat only to find it had gone rancid (still pissed about this...) so I fell back to pork tenderloin. Tasted fantastic, though! 
    I hope you can find some! It would be fun to hear your thoughts on it!  :)
