Rib Eyes – On the bone:
The week before Meatopia, work was really busy and I was quite tired. I needed a simple cook and when I spotted two large Rib Eyes on the bone in the freezer the decision was made!
The Meat:
2x Rib Eyes on the bone: 1x Dexter / 1x Sussex Red – each one was about £22 from the black label range and around 600g.
Look how thick they are!
The Cook:
I fired up the Kamado Joe Big Joe and kept it around 150°C – deflector plates in and steaks cooked slowly and indirectly. It took about half an hour for them to hit 48°C then I left them to rest whilst I cranked up the temperature. The steaks had been generously salted before they went in and I had a chunk of Oak in to add some smoke flavour to the meat.
A couple of minutes per side of direct, blazing fire!
Oh yes!
Time to Eat:
The moment of truth….nice and pink!
SUMMARY:
These steaks were incredible, I think they went straight into my top 5 they were so good 🙂
Nice to have a simple cook for once too!
