Idaho winter steaks

[Pigfarmin101]

Smoked some reverse sear steaks today. Sirloin and ribeye (not happy with my butchers cuts, too thin). Stuck inside since idaho threw some snow at us. Smoker was at 200, threw an spg mix on em

Smoked till about 110-115 degrees internal

Pulled, cranked to 450 degrees, threw em in the flame for 45 seconds a side

Rested and ate.

Idaho lunch at its finest! Too bad we didn’t have potatos

As close to perfect as you can ask for. When the beef looks that darn good you dont need a potato.

I didn’t know that! I don’t even know if I’ve seen a potato farm, and I’ve lived here my whole life haha. Knife brand is aikido. Love them so far, little spendy but still super sharp after a couple months of good use

Just some FYI, Agri the parent company of RR ranch and SRF wagyu beef was founded in eastern Idaho. The SRF wagyu bull program is center in the nampa/caldwell area. Agri beef won beef producer of the century a little bit ago…..

There are spuds and beef all around….if you know were to look

Oh and memory chips, computer parts, solar components and semi conductors are Idahos top exports….. beef and spuds and down the list a ways…..

Idaho is also a big friggen deal for barley and hops too :)

#1 and #2 respectfully.

Yeah snake river farms is a big producer around here. Also I may look for beef, but potatoes are lower on my list for sure. Maybe I lack a great way to add smoke flavor to them

I'll often bake a few potatoes on the smoker while I'm cooking the protein. Just throw them on a rack and leave 'em alone for a few hours. They pick up a subtle smokiness that is just wonderful

I'm a native of southern Idaho (we didn't grow potatoes on the family farm, though), working to move back to northern Idaho in the spring.

Those steaks look mighty good from where I'm sitting.

Point for sure

Boise and Moscow are def the two greatest places in Idaho.

Just going to say eastern Idaho is a terrible place to live....No one should ever move there.... LOL

 

[fendersrule]

100%. Eastern idaho is the worst. Driving there is completely draining since there's hundreds of miles of nothing!

And no offense to anyone from Pocatello, but it felt icky and I was glad to get out of there during a brief stop.
