Title: Rib Eye Sandwiches W/Top Secret

Sep 05 2014

Last Saturday I got a package. I had called Tim and ordered two 6 oz. shakers of his Top Secret rub, one of MoRockin chicken and one of Savor All. I wanted to post “I got a package”, but then I thought this is Top Secret, I should not post until a test and then to only those with the need and the right to know, (LTBBQ members)!

I was anxious all week to try the new rub and finally did some flat iron rib eyes seasoned with the Top Secret well on both sides. I did them on the flat side of grill grates for sandwiches on toasted Italian bread.

Our sides were some Israeli Mac Couscous and sliced fresh tomatoes. The Couscous I did like Mac n cheese. I sliced about ¼ each red and green pepper then diced and a slice of diced Vidalia onion and a clove of garlic, all sautéed in olive oil. I cooked a cup of couscous in chicken broth then stirred in about a half cup of shredded Gouda, a half cup of shredded cheddar and the sautéed veggies.

The rib eye was one my butcher cut thin for me and one cut in half was enough for a sandwich for the wife and me. I did the seasoned rib eyes on my Weber gas grill on grill gates 3 to 4 min per side and getting the Italian bread on, sprayed with olive oil, about 2 minutes per side.

I served them with the mac couscous, I had tomato slices seasoned with Savor All, my wife said she was tomatoed out. I had a lot of tomatoes coming on all at once to use up. She had mustard and dill pickle on her sandwich; I had mustard and smoky horseradish sauce.

The Top Secret rub was great on the rib eye and loved the Savor All on the tomatoes. After I ate a couple bites of the couscous I added some Savor All to it too. I must say that was a Savory supper!!

Don,
You will have the same problem I am experiencing lately.  Top Secret has taken over as my go-to beef rub.  It is so good!!

I thought it really went well with the beef, I did do a slab of St. Louis cut Tyson ribs Thurs. night dry Memphis style with it. I liked it but the ribs were the worst I ever done and no seasoning works with bad meat. I decided not to post. I will try to use the leftovers in a Ragu over grits tonight and see how that goes. Don

The whole plate looks great, Don. The rib eye sandwich sounds delicious, but I really like the mac& cheese style couscous idea. Thanks!

Everything looks outstanding Don. I think you took Couscous to a new level. My old saying was there is no excuse for Couscous but this thread may have changed my opinion :)

Wow Don that is a great looking meal.  The sandwich looks like a home run and the couscous looks really great.  I would like to polish off a plate like that!!!
