Cherry smoked reverse seared cote de boeuf … interesting

I’ve cooked cote do boeuf over alder, oak and hickory but not cherry. After a delicious cherry smoked duck I wondered what this aromatic would give to cote de boeuf. Only one way to find out. I smoked a rib over cherry wood at 225F until IT 125F then at 550F for a couple of mins each side. 








Verdict - good. Very good. It needed an appropriate wine to compliment the cherry, we had Meerlust Rubicon which has a little sweet fruit to work well with the cherry. So did Bread and Butter Cabernet Sauvignon. 

Thanks for looking.

    That looks incredible!!! I’ve been cooking steaks reverse sear here lately and my teenage daughter doesn’t like it cause she likes to drink the “steak juice” off the plate and there’s no juice with reverse sear, ha!

    Never a doubt.  Way to bring it home.  Photo 3 tells the story. $$ shot for the win.
    If I only had one smoke wood to use it would be cherry.  Fantastic cook, as are they all.

    @paqman’s poutine sauce would have gone perfectly on this one. 🙂

    That is a beautiful cook. Cherry is a favorite of mine, too.
    Happily egging on my original large BGE since 1996... now the owner of 5 eggs. Call me crazy, everyone else does!

    Be EVER thankful that your teenage daughter even likes anything you egg! I personally know two guys whose snow flake daughters got so bitchy that their mother threatened divorce unless he gets rid of his egg!m

    Reads like a win-win coming up: keep the egg and get rid of SWMBO.  No brainer decision! B)
