Title: Ribeye Dinner
Post by: OldHickory on July 12, 2011, 04:02:15 PM
The wife and I thought it was time for some ribeye steaks and of course a cold smoke with Hickory first.

This is one of the steaks before seasoning or smoke.  They are about 1# 7oz each. .

I put the steaks in my BDS4 and used the SG only with a large pan of ice in the bottom.  It was right out of the refer and into the Bradley for 45 min of smoke.  The ambient T was 90* and the Mav said 110* in the Cab at the end of the smoke.  I did a light spray of OO on both sides and a good dusting of garlic salt and coarse black pepper.  It was then straight on to the HOT PGG for 2' 35" each side.

This was a little treat for us during the smoke.  My beef jerky with some homemade wine ( A 2006 Merlot ) .....Wonderful.

These are on the plate right off the grill.

Both are rare, the way we like them, and of course mine is the one with more butter.

Good looking steaks, I bet with some ice blocks in cabinet you could get that temp down to 90

I would pay big money for a steak done like that while I'm on the road. But it just won't happen :(

Now I have to make it home to have anything close.

Very very nice!!

Outstanding.  Cold smoke on steaks before grilling is the best IMHO.  I like to let them sit over night in the fridge.  The smoke is nice and mellow at that point.

Like others, your meal sure is pretty.
