Grilling

I'd hate to admit that I'd make a trip for food - but I'm a food whore... :banana:

This is for @RobPLSCA - you'll see in a minute...

This was last night, and why I promptly fell into a Food Coma afterwards... Found a HUGE rib eye at the meat counter, asked the guy to weigh that slab. It was 2.38lbs. I told him to wrap it up.

I did the heavy-salt treatment on it, with LaRue Dillo Dust. Bring it up to room temp, then hit it with the salt for 1hr 20 minutes per side. Sits with the salt for 1:20, flip it, salt it, let it sit for another 1:20. About 20 minutes before it was finished on the second side, I went with the Dillo Dust to finish it out. The Dillo Dust side goes down first on the flame, then Dillo Dust the up-side as soon as it goes on.

Brought the grill up to 475 and let it settle. When the slap went on,the temp dipped to 400, but came back up to 425. Because of how thick this slap was, I let it go for 6:30 per side and pulled it - that kept it a little over Rare, but under Medium Rare.

Now, this thing was a slab. I pulled out the tape on it to check it - the tape says it was 1.5" thick:

I didn't trust that tape measure for an accurate measurement, so I broke out the digital Vernier caliper to see what was up...   I KNEW THAT TAPE WAS OFF!!!   It was 1.4475" thick!!!...

Here's how big this bruiser was...

First side done and turned, just need another 6 minutes 30 seconds now, and some rest time...

Here's the other side...

This slab of beast came out fantastic...

I got through half of it, and had to store the rest. I was so damn tired eating that thing.... Instant Food Coma!

Here was last weekend on the grill - forgot to post this one up... Another rib eye, lobster tail, giant scallops, all on the grill...

Greens are what you cut with a lawnmower and let rot to enrich the soil so you can raise more pigs, cows and goats for eattin'!, , , , , and make more earthworms for fishing.

I gotta be truthful, I do eat some rabbit food salad every once in a while, after all I have been married to the same Christian woman for almost 54 years and raised 4 children with her. I eat her salad, providing I also get some baked potatoe fixed all the way, she makes it outta home grown tomatoes, onions and some whatever kind of greens we have with plenty of cured ham and boiled eggs. A lot of vinegar and a little olive oil, or homemade dressing helps , she tells me I need it every once in a while to keep my bowels regular. OKAY I may be just a wee bit female cat-whipped but don't let her know that.

damned grammer police female cat I meant Pussey....whipped

Picked these up from a local butcher the other day holy poop they were good

chicken breast with cheese and said veggie on the inside wrapped in a healthy amount of bacon

Dear Sweet Little Baby Jesus, this has been on my mind since I saw it last night... I had to fix that problem... :laffs:

Found some fat chicken breasts tonight, cut them two sides to make a pocket, hit them with garlic powder and salt only on the inside. Layed down the Provolone, inserted Asparagus, folded them back together... . Hit the top side with Dillo Dust and let them sit for 30 minutes like that. Had to use two toothpicks per to keep these fat things together.

Threw down the Dillo Dust side first, then hit the top side, let them go for 7mins per side at 400-ish. Here's the first turn:

Final product is perfection, and pretty damn yummy!...

Thank you, Neil!!! :hail:

I have three more chicken breasts for this weekend, and they'll get the bacon wrap. I've been hungry since last night when I saw this, and I couldn't waste any more time with these things by wrapping them with bacon... :laffs:

I can understand that feeling. I just might do this for lunch this weekend. My wife’s coworker and her husband are coming up to see the property and I’m supposed to cook something. That right there looks awesome.

I didn't want to take the time tonight, but... this weekend, you'll have the time. Split the breasts and hit the inside area with the salt first, and let them sit for at least 45 minutes. That salt will break down the meat and make them more tender. After that 45 minutes, then hit them with the garlic powder, lay in the provolone and asparagus, fold, toothpick, etc... :thumbup:

....wrap with bacon. You missed a step. Thanks. I’ll run that by the wife and see what she thinks.

Think I did 425° 20 min each side, the bacon crisped up niceand kept the chicken moist

edgecrusher · June 14, 2019

This is cruel and unusual. It’s not fair to be hungry all the time

DNP · June 14, 2019

You should eat more. You’ve gotta be on a 7000 cal diet anyways to keep up with the workouts. Might as well have some chicken and asparagus when you get home.

shits I got duped and had pork ribs handed to me but I like them and they grill pretty easy! lots of meat and fat on these might have to adjust cook time for big rack.
