MEAT!
« Reply #-1 on: March 04, 2012, 09:01:01 AM »
I can't abide small steaks but that's what the butcher at the store I frequently prowl loves.  He specializes in the see-thru kind served in tea rooms.  But, he screwed up last week and cut a couple of real ones.  Here are my two 24 oz. ribeyes undergoing a reverse sear smoke bath in the ol' Traeger:



After they smoked for an hour I marinated them in cheap red wine, Worchestershire, and olive oil with a sprinkle of Montreal Steak.  About two hours later I fired the Memphis up to 550 using mesquite pellets.  About six minutes per side got 'em to medium-rare:



An Emerill style baked potato and some salad were finished up while they rested.  Every now and then ya just gotta have some MEAT ;D

It'll run on up to 650 but I've learned from experience that 550 does the same job while burning fewer precious pellets.  Got a whole state full of hardwood trees and furniture factories here in NC but have to pay dearly to ship in pellets from the wilds of Arkansas and Wisconsin  :o

That's my favorite way to grill, indirect smoke for awhile & finish on high.

You weren't kidding when you told me the "butcher" made a mistake (or should that be "misteak") and cut some real steaks.  Some trainee probably wrapped them and put them out for sale before the "butcher" could make steakem's out of the ribeyes.  It might be worth your time to go back and thank whoever did that.  Maybe they will make the same "misteak" again.
