    Jason,[p]Please turn off your cap lock. You are basically yelling in forums when you type everything in all caps. Use all caps for a single word for emphasis.

    [ul][li]Here is the T-rex recipe. [/ul]
  • JASON ,
    welcome. . . first, don't TALK IN ALL CAPS. ..in forum language, that is YELLING. ...[p]now, for t-rex steaks... its a popular cooking method for thick steaks (at least 1 1/2 inches thick). ..basically, you sear them at high temps - at least 750 degrees.....then pull them from you egg, let them rest for 20 minutes while you get your egg back to 400 degrees, then put them back in the egg for a few minutes per side to 'dwell' until done. .. for the complete detailed description go the naked whiz's site, under the recipe section and read the entire t-rex story. ...[p]here is a link to a recent post of mine with 3 inch thick steaks. ..

    <p />Dos Huevos, I prefer to slobber......open to more interpretation....[p]116_1666.jpg[p]Anyway, here are a couples steaks I did last week with the cast iron pan, blackening method. Just like TREX but use a super hot pan. Slobbering good stuff. T

    JASON ,[p]They are only the best thing since beer, sliced bread, the internet and sex.
    Gotta start with a good piece of steak, though. Don't scrimp.[p]Woody54

  • JASON,[p]Others have explained it but let me tell you why I like the method so much. Precise control! You sear the steak at high temperature but finish it off at a much lower temperature (I like about 350F) which allows you to moniter the internal temperature with a Polder (or other temp probe) without frying the probe leads. I'll monitor the internal temperature as it slowly rises to about 127F and then yank it off the grill. It's done to a beautiful moist medium rare, no more overcooked steaks, they come out perfect every time.

    JASON ,[p]Here is a movie I did on T-Rex steaks. Some of my terminology is not correct, but the process is accurate and may help you. You will need QuickTime Player to view.
