Doesn't this look/sound delicious!! Just saw it this afternoon on Serious Eats. I think it would work with other cuts of meat too. Kenji uses a Weber (hot side/cool side of the grid), but I'm thinking sear/roast on the egg.

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

    Those look F-in delicious.  I see they're tied with butcher string....wonder why they still have toothpicks in them?

    Proabably left because it was easier to hold them together while stringing them up.


    Also, the meat will shrink a little, so maybe extra insurance.

    Those sure do look damn inviting though!

    OK, read the article and answered my own question.    They're skewers.

    "Insert a skewer through each piece of twine. Without the skewer, the slices would buckle and collapse once they even start cooking. The skewer helps them keep their pretty shape until served, which means better presentation, more even cooking, and better filling-retention."

    That's what I was going to suggest.

    I will definitely be trying these at some point. Looks like a painstaking process but worth it!

    Anyone done these on an Egg? Sear/Roast or another method?

    @Carolina Q,  this recipe is yet another reason to have a jar of that Costco Muffaletta mix on hand. 

    Alton Brown's favorite chicken recipe is another.

    I seared and roasted on a raised grid. Raising was key, I think. Avoided flare ups from dripping oil, etc. 

    They were pretty good. Toughest part (by far) was butterflying the flank steak. Very hard to keep from running it too thin on either side. But quite forgiving once you’ve tied and skewered them.

    i know this is an old post but if you sear hard in a pan it sears the cheese in, then rest and roast with the trex method

    Flat Iron steak also works pretty good.
