    So great to see a post from you, Joan!  Bruce and I were just speaking of y'all yesterday and saying it's been too long since we've seen y'all.  Big hugs to you and Lloyd!

    Like your style, Joan. Steak looks delicious!

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    That looks mighty fine!

    I've had burgers from heartbrand ground beef before and was pretty impressed. I'll bet that steak didn't disappoint.

    caliking, the steaks don't disappoint.  Neither does the tri tip, roasts or the bone marrow.  Heartbrand has become my beef of choice.

    Now that is getting it done.  Money shot for the win.  Congrats.
    Too late this PM to check your source but I am one who gives any solid meat purveyor a go at least once.  Thanks for the heads-up.

    Those look as good as any SV or reverse sear I've ever seen -- great job!

    For thick steaks, I'm sticking with reverse sear because I've taken to using some smoke during the low-and-slow part, and I definitely can taste it in the finished steak, and I LOVE it.  Maybe if I had a lot of smoke in an 8-minute cook with frequent flips it would taste the same, but I'm guessing that more minutes in smoke = more smoke flavor.

    Anyway, your steaks look GREAT!

    I second this for steaks - Chicago black and blue or Pittsburgh rare.  Roast and toast the outside until done! (Med-rare).  SV or reverse sear for guaranteed results, but nothing beats a good burn done right. It's like 'eye of the tiger' time.  Great!

    Great looking steak. Where do you get Heartbrand? Is it local or do you have to order it?

    Thanks everyone.  
    For those who don't live in either the SATex area or DFW area here is the Website:https://heartbrandbeef.com.  
    Those in SATex can purchase the beef at Bolner meat market.  
    The DFW area at Deep Cuts in Dallas (Coit at Beltline (NW shopping center).  Beef is $$$ but worth every dime.

    For those local , another benefit to being in CT.  Their shipping starts at $25
    and this from their web site:
    "All packages, except gift certificates, are delivered within 1-3 days from the time of shipping. Customer will be charged a minimum fee of $25 per meat order or 25% of the order for orders over $100.00. HeartBrand® Beef ships to all physical addresses in the continental United States. We cannot ship to PO Boxes. All orders are shipped with ‘No Signature Required’."  FWIW-

    So good to see another post from you, Joan!  I need to take a little drive and get me some Heartbrand!  I have tried most of the methods on the forum, and "flip often" always turns out great.  It is found in in a lot of the APL recipes..
