An appropriate night for hot tubbing

Steaks that is. Is anyone else sick of this cold spell? Yes, I live in Florida. And, yes, I'm a wuss when it comes to cold weather, but this 2-week cold snap is reaching the point of absurdity! This never happens here. Go AWAY winter, you're seriously getting on my nerves!
OK, I feel better now. I have braved the cold a few times over the past 2 weeks and Egged some good food. Wanted to do steaks tonite. My preference after testing several different methods (T-rex, hot tub, sear/ dwell, etc.) has always been T-Rex. However, I felt the hot tub method would be appropiate on this frigid Florida evening. Just had to fire up the Egg, go inside, make a salad, etc., then back out for a couple of minutes sear on each side.
Definitely worth freezing my butt off!
A big bone-in Strip for me, smaller boneless ribeye for wife, both 1.5" thick. Hot tubbed @ ~105 for about an hour.

Global warming in West Central FL. Enough!

Dome temp was buried past 750*. HOT!


Hit the spot

Looks great; I feel for all you folks freezing down there; I hope it warms up soon for you. On my front, it is indeed worse-than-freezing, but of course we're used to it. :( This is my first winter with my eggs; I was unable to convince my husband prior to the snow flying that I needed an enclosed, heated (we at least enclosed!), ventilated egg-shack, so I really haven't been cooking as much as I would like because it's just too freakin cold to have much fun...Oh well, maybe next year I'll have my shack. On the bright side, we have a ton of snow, and snowmobiling is the best it's been in years!

Looks good

I am with you on this JB. I am SICK of the cold weather!
We are not equipped to handle this much cold. I don't know how the people up north do this all winter long.
This was Sunday night at my house:
I was under a covered area, but I walked out into the street and it was 28 degrees!
FaithHappily egging on my original large BGE since 1996... now the owner of 5 eggs. Call me crazy, everyone else does!
3 Large, 1 Small, 1 well-used Mini -
