    Now that's my kind of meal right there. Meat and meat cooked on the rare. It doesn't get any better than that. This easily earns the SGH seal of approval my friend. Excellent job!! =D>

    Choice. For $11/lb, couldn't resist the temptation of experimenting, and grilling a bone-in Ribeye Filet. 

    This does happen to be Certified Black Angus, though. Supplier hooked us up last week. ;)

    Hi, evie!

    At this point, I don't remember the temp or time.

    I fall in the camp of cooking with high heat. Therefor, I would guess at least 500~550.

    If I remember correctly cook time was around 8 minutes. I may be off a little bit. I checked temp after 6 minutes with my Thermapen. Needed a few more minutes, and I was done.

    The Rib Cap cooked a little longer, as you want all the fat to render in the Spinalis (medium to medium well). At least 12 minutes for the rib cap.


    Probably not much help, I'm sorry. :/

    Brother I have to say that I prefer "spinalis dorsi" on the south side of rare. It is incredible to me this way. Spinalis cervicas as well. I'm a little partial to rare beef. To each his own. But again yours looks par excellent my friend. Hope that you enjoy it.

    I have had the Spinalis raw, once. I do not like the texture of a rare "cap". I attempted to serve this cap rareish, and disliked the texture, and cooked to medium/medium well. The fat rendered completely and tasted phenomenal.

    I will be experimenting with the cap much more often now.

    I cooked this cap in a rolled pin wheel. Unrolled, and sliced thin.

    How do you cook them?

    I cook them flat and very hot and fast to develope a good sear on the outside but leaving the inside rare.

    I will definitely be trying again. Next time, I will cook it flat. Pinwheel idea was something different. Maybe that's why I cooked it to medium/medium-well. I suppose if it were flat, I'd cook it like I normally would, a steak.. 

    That'll be for another day. :)

    Going to try and pick up some dry-aged Wagyu Spinalis. =P~

    That looks awesome!  How do you develop so much char on the surface? 


    And I didn't know know you could buy the ribeye cap as a cut of meat alone.  It's my favorite part of the ribeye.  Mind blown...
