Pete. What is that black oval thing in the pictures?

Uh, whatever are you talking about? Uh, I don't know what you are talking about! Ha ha ha.

Nice lookin' spread Pete.

Heading to the VA Aug 5th.  
Will plan a stop on the return home for some Chicken George and a visit.  Need to pick up some MC to try, maybe some Lane, and another Smokeware Cap. 

Thanks Brandon. The MC stuff was really fresh and vibrant. I'm looking forward to trying more of the offerings. The combo with the Lanes Ancho was quite nice. Look forward to seeing you if I'm around.

You wanted to test drive the new rubs, so you combined them?  Meal looks fantastic, but how do you know how they are individually?

Did that on the advice of others here. I did taste them both prior to applying to the meat. I do have a decent pallet and ability to project what will go well with what. The combo was good and by tasting them individually ahead of time, I have a pretty good sense of each individually. I was a bit reluctant to use the Holy Cow, because it appeared to be more a BBQ rub than a steak rub, but the combo was pretty good.

Nicely done sir... Your plate looks so good !!!

Thank you sir. It was hot enough outside I prolly could have just set the steaks on the side table and they would've cooked just fine. 

Thanks @bluebird66

Amazing!  Reverse sear or just direct the whole time? 

Yeah, nothing special, just direct sear over CI grate with some turns for presentation marks. If you like them more done, I just throw them in foil to rest for a while and they will keep cooking. I go by feel almost always. 

thanks @GoooDawgs.

Looks good.  I got some of that Lane's in the exchange, haven't tried it yet, but I see it going on some lamb blade chops this week.

Sounds good. I think I'll try it on some pork tenderloin. Thanks for the kind words.

I think it would be best if I moved south, the winters here suck!

But but but, Pete...you can't shovel sunshine! How would you ever stay in shape? 

Ron, I'm willing to take my chances. My shape keeps getting rounder all the time anyway.
