Ribeye Dinner

OldHickory · 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.

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

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!!

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.
