    @setdahook - that is delivering the goods.  Great looking plate right there.

    @4TheGrillOfIt - Sweet cook outcome right there.  Congrats.
    Any insights you care to share regarding the process beyond the opening the wallet to SRF??   B)

    @lousubcap thanks! Just a reverse sear—light smoke indirect at 250F with a fist-size chunk of pecan.  Seared next to the coals using a spider and 13 inch grid on my large.  Briefly entertained your caveman method, but chickened out!  😝 it was a bit too large to pull it off, I think.

    @ryantt -great spreads and pics.  Mouth-watering right there!
    Hopefully Norah Grace was part of the deal or does she have too many other things going right now?

    @lousubcap, Sue actually cooked these without me.  I simply sat down and stuffed my face.   She’s still finding time to cook even with all of her activities.

    Glad to hear that the fire still burns and looks like she has really elevated her game these past several months.  Way to keep her engaged.

    @MasterC - great cook and result.  Nailed 'em.
    Let me offer a tip I learned many years ago-rotate the dome thermo target temp to the 12 o'clock position.  That way a casual glance will let you know the way the cook is tending.  
    Just be careful not to mess with the calibration hex nut during the process.  FWIW-

    @Buckwoody Egger - great plate and narrative.  Glad to see you back here.  Nailed that cook.

    @SciAggie - glad you have found your way back with your great cooks.  Looks delicious and even rolling in the diamond plate for the return!  Well played!

    If I didn't know any better I would say that was a very small paella pan by your standards.

    That looks great! I know my wife would probably kill that pan by herself. She loves caprese anything.

    That looks great.  I have only done reverse sear steaks on my broiler.  How did you cook this (level, time)?

    I just seared it in the broiler then popped it in the oven at 250F. It was too thick to cook 100% on the broiler before the crust over-darkened.

    I’ll have to try that.  Did you pull it from the oven at 140?
