Publix cuts these steakhouse ribeyes comically thick compared to their normal cut. If time and interest permit, I ask for a “his and hers” where one is 1.5” plus and the other is a generous 1”.









Around 500 temp. The thinner steaks were typical for the cross hatch and quick med rare to med. textbook results. The fat boy was a “covid free but no guarantee 84” after 10 min so it got butterflied. Instead of a real sharp big knife on a cutting board to butterfly on the fly like a pro with a dishwasher on standby, this was “a steak knife hack job without taking it off the grill and preserving my eyelashes.” It worked. Oh boy every bit was great.
