The ABSOLUTE Perfect Steak!

Unknown

I just finished cooking and eating the best steak I have ever tasted, including Ruth's Chris, which up to now had always been my favorite. Started out with 1" ribeyes. Used just a little Adolf's meat tenderizer, rubbed them in olive oil, and then added a generous (and I do mean generous) coating of Cowlick Steak Rub. Nothing else, it's that simple. Heated the egg to 650 and seared on both sides for 2 minutes. Closed down the vents and cooked for another 2 minutes per side. Came out medium with just a touch of pink. Perfect for Peggy and me.[p]I will never cook another steak without Cowlick...thanks Nature Boy for a wonderful job! [p]Now, to the freezer for a big bowl of Blue Bell Moo-Lennium. [p]You know, it just don't get no better than this![p]Van

Hugh Jass,
Thanks man. Glad you enjoyed. Mike gets all the credit here. Cow Lick is one of QFan's concoctions that first got the pig spinnin, and he did a real nice job. It is our second most popular rub. For some reason we didn't use Cow Lick on our brisket in Danville, and we paid for it with the taste scores! Back to what works i guess. Much appreciate the kind words, Hugh!

Hugh Jass,[p]Did a few filets tonight (sorry no pics). The egg does great steaks and yeah, they are better than any steak joint. The only thing that is lacking is someone to bring me coffee and show me some fancy, over-priced desert item.[p]Smokey

Nature Boy,
Hey Chris, It's Kim Shaffer. I was just curious which of your rubs is the most popular? As you know, I receintly ordered an 8 pack of spices from you and last weekend I cooked 8 big slabs of ribs using 4 different types of spices. I used 1 of yours and 3 other well known spices. When they were done I kept them separate and gave each of the 4 different spices a number. We had some neighbors stop by to see what the source of that wonderful smoky smell was. After everyone tried all 4 flavors, I did a survey. All but one person picked number 4. The one person that did not pick number 4 said that he could not decide between 4 and 2 (which was a hot and spicy rub). Number 4 was your Dizzy Dust! I was wondering if this was your best seller?[p]Thanks,
Kim

Thanks for sharing the results of your experiment, Kim. Sure did turn out the way I was hoping![p]Raging River is our most popular rub this year.
Cheers!
Chris

Pitbull,hey Kim! I am wondering how you keep the ribs numbered/or organized so you know which spice is on what item? Everytime I try this I get 'em all mixed up....Sounds like you have been busy with the egg?
