We celebrated Mother's Day for my mother-in-law Saturday night. I cooked Drunk & Dirty beef tenderloin (from RichardFL) and Crash Hot potatoes. We also fed my daughter and stepdaughter w/ her husband and our grandson.

Lean Hereford Beef Tenderloin on sale ($9.99/lb) at Fresh Market grocery. Trimmed to about 5.5# and in the marinade for about 4 hours, flipping when I could remember to :ohmy: :

250* (dome) fire. Setup - adj. rig w/ pizza stone on lowest level and round drip pan on middle level. Put a large chunk of hickory in before the rig went in. Took about 1 1/2 - 2 hours to reach 120* temp. Then I removed the whole rig, put grid fire ring level and kicked the fire up to about 500*. Seared about 1 min on each of the 4 sides.

Tented while reducing reserved marinate for a sauce and finished the potatoes in the oven :(

First time for crashed potatoes. 2 cookie sheets, so did in oven. They needed a little more EVOO on top and a little longer to brown up, but had to rush since my daughter had to go babysit. ;) Added a little shredded cheddar at the end:
