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.
Nice sear marks on those steaks! Nothing quite like a cold smoked ribeye ;D
Good looking steaks, I bet with some ice blocks in cabinet you could get that temp down to 90
Nice..very nice..picture should be in a cooking magazine...
Holy crap,,,,,,,,,,,,,, that looks GREAT!
I could eat both of them there plates of grub. ;D
Nice job, the steak looks perfect and I could eat taters with every meal.
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!!
I have not been able to perfect a steak like the looks of that, awesome Job and excellent dinner!!!!!
Incredible plated photo! Love the pewter platter.
Nicely done!
Now that is a killer looking meal to say the least!
You made me hungry and I just finished dinner!
Great looking meal!

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.
