More fun with beef over the weekend!
1.2kg ribeye on a skilled with Wagyu beef fat. The crust on this was next level!

Gorgeous @scarfmace ! I like the cast iron. Hard to beat the temperature transfer of physical contact. I use a cast iron plancha in the bottom of my Oval, placed on the racks intended for heat deflectors, to get it close to the coals and rippin' hot.
-
Thx @mclaincausey, I love cast iron aswell! Only downside is that it's quite heavy so in my home kitchen I work with carbon steel mostly, Carbon steel should hold up fine in the bbq aswell but require just a little more TLC and I can't always be bothered

Y'all like pork? What about big ole butts? With homemade riff on a Columbia gold or a mid-south ketchup-based sauce and homemade slaw.

I like big butts and I cant deny–--!
-
Great looking combo, I can almost taste it

@LewisStonehouse I tried the reverse sear you suggested today and made some amazing ribeyes. By far the best steak I have ever had at home. I made some clarified butter to brown them in. I am going to get some wagyu beef for my mom's birthday meal so this was good practice.
I didn't have a meat thermometer that goes to 115 buy my infared worked and I cooked them for 25 minutes @275° until the surface temperature on the steak was 160°
I didn't get the proper Maillard reaction so I know I have to get the pan way hotter next time.
-
Ah glad to hear it @flithy
Hard to get the mad temps on a pan but no doubt you still get a better cook. I'll get something special sorted when yas over for the partay

Did my first brisket. Really turned out great, and I have some ideas to try next time. The point was really about as good as it gets, but the flat never hit the temperature I wanted but still came out a tad drier than I'd have preferred. Still a huge win and I am excited about it.
-
@mclaincausey bravo on that, most people's (mine included) first brisket completely sucks but that looks pretty great
-
looks great!
-
Looks really good. Congratulations! I’ve only done brisket flats as I don’t have enough room to do the point as well. Towards the end of the cook I’ll spray the brisket with a mixture of apple juice and water. Seems to help with the dryness. Also put some water and bourbon in my drip pan.I’m guessing you got your brisket from a butcher. Do you know if it was choice or prime. Doesn’t look like you wrapped/used the Texas crutch either. I’ve found that to help with the dryness as well.

The big ol slabs of meat in this thread look incredible…my wife being Vegan has put a serious damper on my at-home meat prep for the last few years
