I found a screaming deal at Costco the week before Christmas. They had the Prime Grade Whole Top Loin on sale for $8.49 lb. Then there was an additional $25 rebate at the register - Out-the-door price was $7.09 lb for Prime Top Loin (NY Strip).
I cut nine 16oz steaks and vacuum sealed them (OK I grilled one and split it with my bride for lunch) and into the freezer. The remaining HUNK (almost 7 pounds) was smoked on Christmas Day. I smoked it on my pellet grill and used my new Amaz'n tube smoker for added smoke. I took it off when the IT hit 134 degrees and let it rest for 20 mins tented in foil. I then took it out to the Weber and seared it on all sides.
This was the first time smoking a Whole Top Loin and we really enjoyed it.

A sample of the steaks I cut (these were about 1.5 inches thick and weighed out right at 16 oz)
