Ribeyes on the Big Green Egg
Options
Cranked Up the Big Green Egg by opening bottom vent wide open and remove your metal top to enable full draft thru your BGE.[p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/CrankUp_BGE.JPG>[p]
We are looking for a Temp over 750 degrees to sear our steaks. This can take up to 20 minutes depending on your method of starting up your lump charcoal. Today I used 1" fire starters which will take longer compared to a torch.[p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/BGE_Sear_Temp.JPG>[p]
Once we have gotten our desired temp for searing make sure to burp the lid before opening fully and start dropping your steaks on the grate. I'm looking for a good 90 second sear on each side![p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/Searing_1st_Side.JPG>[p]

Once I've finished my searing phase, I want to shutdown the BGE by closing all vents completely. This will bring the temp down to our desired temp of 400 degrees in about 15-20 minutes.[p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/Shutdown_BGE_cooldown.JPG>[p]

I prepare my Corn and French Bread with some butter and garlic salt. Once the temp drops to my desired 400 degrees I start cooking my steaks and Corn. Since these steaks are about 1" - 1.5" thick I usually cook these around 4 minutes per side for a nice medium-rare cook.[p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/Prep_Corn_Bread.JPG>[p]

At this point I pulled the steaks and cover and place French Bread on. After a few minutes I pull the corn and French Bread and prepare to eat. [p]<img src=http://home.cfl.rr.com/rebhan/Pull_Steaks_add_Bread.JPG>[p]

Here is my Plated Entree which consists of my Ribeye Steak covered with marinated wine mushrooms and Garlic Blue Cheese Butter, Corn on the Cobb, Ceasar Salad and buttered French Bread. This was served with my favorite cabernet wine of Casillero del diablo from Chile.<img src=http://www.conchaytorousa.com/images/casillerocab_btl04.gif>[p]

OrlandoTopDawg,[p]Great Pictoral...I may have to do some steaks this weekend. They are so easy and good. I noticed your "TopDawg" handle and your cool beer glass. I have to say this...GEAUX TIGERS!!!! You know who that is! HaHa! I love the SEC and the Tigers. The Bulldogs have a great program and a classy coach. I live in Texas and I officiate high school and college football. I officiated a game with Matt Stafford when he was at Highland Park High School. His opposition that day was Jevan Sneed from Stephenville who went to Texas but has transferred to Ole Miss now. They both put on a show. [p]Have a great weekend!

Ref1515,[p]Hey, Thanks for chiming in. I truly believe it will comedown once again to the Dawgs and Tigers in Atlanta come December.[p]BTW, LSU is my 2nd favorite SEC school, fwiw. It came down to Georgia and LSU when I was being recruited to play ball.[p]Go Dawgs!!!
