    caveman searing thingy

    At Menards, $99, $88 with mail-in rebate... at that price, had to try it. Just went and pick one up, stopped at Costco and got some prime NY strip, then total wine and more to get a nice Bordeaux, should be in for a good dinner...

    Tomahak steak

    My version of reverse searing. Tomahak ribeye salted generously and put on rack in the fridge for 8 hrs. Then, in the smoker @ 225f with maybe 1oz of wood until internal temp of 125f. Seared on a tuscan grill in the wood fired oven (about 950/1000f) for about 30 seconds on each side. Tented...

Smoked at 200f for around 4hrs, took it out at 140f, wrapped it and let it rest until oven ready at 500f (about 30 mins) reverse sear it for 7 minutes.... man, that stuff was...

    Sous vide smoked brisket experiment

    To continue on Tmaneater thread, I will do a side by side taste test. Costco has some Prime whole packer @ $2.99/lb. I got a 14lbs one. I also bought a 3lbs Choice flat. The big one will be cooked the traditional way (in the SI) and the small one will get the sous vide treatment like they do it...

So, this morning took the one we took out yesterday from the freezer and did the 3-2-1 thingy as...

First try was a regular reversed sear like you do with a rib eye. The result was fantastic, really tender and, like my son commented, a...
