BIG FAT COWBOY RIBEYE.... and some dainty scallops

JB

After a long, rain-delayed day on the links, I needed a steak, and lots of it. Had a 2" ribeye cut for me. My wife is cutting down on red meat (I, however, will not be participating :P) so scallops for her. The scallops were not great quality or size, but turned out great, she loved 'em.

Big fat bone-in ribeye


Everything prepped and ready


Hottest fire I've ever had, perfect sear


Cooled the Egg to 400 during the T-rex rest, threw the scallops on


Pat a butta on the steak, my wife was already eating scallops while I was taking pictures...


Great Sunday dinner!

Holy crap, that is one big hunk of meat. Hope you enjoyed it.

JB

Oh yeah baby! Can't get 'em much better...

I brought it in for the rest and showed my wife, "yeah, look great honey" she said. She doesn't speak Egg...

JB

That hunk of beef looks incredible. I'm waiting on a small CI grate to use with the spider, but did a few boneless ribeyes tonight and was able to convert one of my daughter's friends into a true carnivore. Apparently, her mother likes her meat burnt, err "well done". I felt a burst of true carnivorous joy when she commented mid-meal, "I think I like this medium-rare thing."

Too cool. I hope her mother doesn't wind up hating me.

What was the dome temp during the sear? Those grill marks are spectacular.

Boomer- I picked up the large CI grate last week at a BGE dealer in Tampa. I highly recommend it for searing.

Porterhouse- dome temp was pegged at 750 but I would estimate it was significantly hotter than that once the steak hit the grate. Seared a total of 90 seconds on each side, rotating 90 degrees after 45 seconds to get the criss-cross. After a 20 min rest, cooked 5 mins on each side @ 400F, pulled at an avg temp of 125, rested 5 mins. Was a good mid-rare, leaning toward rare in the thickest part.
