Ribeyes and veggies = "the look"

I got that look of appreciation and a bit of awe from the wife last night...

The egg has elevated my grilling game, no doubt!

Did HEB prime ribeyes and some veggies. Used my half moon grill from CGS for the first time, and decided it'd be easiest to put the sliced veggies on a pizza pan that has holes in it so the smoky goodness would permeate those rascals. The spacing on that top grid is pretty wide. I had some Durkee Citrus Grill rub sitting around that I used on the veggies, and sea salt, pepper, and a bit of Cow Lick on the steaks:

It was pretty easy to grab the veggies and turn them over about halfway through. Towards the end I pulled the lesser done steak and then put the veggies in a cast iron skillet on the lower level, with a bit of canola oil added to keep them from sticking. No picture of that, sorry. Here's the plated shot, just everyday plates since we had no guests:

I added parmesan to the veggies after I brought them in. They were really good, next time I'll probably use butter towards the end instead of canola. They had a bunch of smoke flavor, almost too much but we didn't think so. The steaks were tender and juicy as always, just amazing flavor. Did KISS on the taters, just the HEB pre-made stuff but they work well. I got a bit distracted with the new process and got one of the steaks a bit overdone on one side, but we'll enjoy some sammiches with the leftovers:
