My butcher, who always has great steaks, has what he calls "cowboy" steaks. They are about 3" thick.

How would one go about cooking those?
Thanks
Harry

    I like anything with "cowboy" in the name. :laugh:

    Are these rib chops with the full length bone attached? At any rate, I would go with a simple seasoning of sea salt, black pepper and a pinch of cayenne, then cook over a medium fire until the internal passes 100°. Then remove the steak, and tent it with foil.....meanwhile, ramp up the cooker to about 500+°, then do an end sear until the internal reaches 125° for medium rare.

    Yep, cowboy steak is bone-in ribeye. LOVE EM! One of my favorite cuts... That's my favorite pork chop cut too, rib chops.

    Use thirdeye's method or TREX.

    Get pictures! :)

    YUM!!
