Title: Rib eye steaks
Post by: Quarlow on November 06, 2009, 11:17:33 AM
I thought I saw some bacon wrapped rib eyes. What would be the best way to do them.

I don't recall seeing them wrapped in bacon, but.....

I would:

Apply an hour of cold smoke (Hickory or Mesquite for me).

Wrap in plastic wrap overnight.

Grill the next day.

The wrap and rest allows the smoke flavor to penetrate the meat and distrubute evenly.

I must be thinking of something else wrapped in bacon. It's my nephews B'day tomorrow and he wants me to smoke/cook his rib eyes. So you would just smoke them and then cook the next day. Sounds good. I saw the ones you did, I'll go check that post closer.

Smoke - I like oak or mesquite on beef.  I have my chuck roast in now going for 0:40 mesquite and 1:40 oak.

The slow smoke, wrap and grill idea sounds good to me.  The rib eyes are pretty fatty to start with.  I wouldn't think you'd need any bacon, especially if they're going on the grill.
