Fathers day and I decided that tomahawk steaks were on the menu. It was raining, the bridge exits were closed, we had some cancellations.
These are Costco versions and pretty thick.
Smoked on cherry at 180° on the recteq.
Should be enough meat for 5 people.
Ho many of each flavor do you have to order to get them to ship to you? So they mix or do you just get one flavor?
I have to go to two different places to get hickory and cherry in one, apple, oak, and pecan in the other. To get the mesquite blend I have to drive for an hour and a half to get...
I used some traeger pellets in a mailbox mod and after a short period of time dark liquid would seep through the air inlet holes in the bottom. I switched to lumberjack and the problem went away.
I have read in other places that traeger adds flavor to their pellets.
Terrific looking meatloaf and potatoes. I will definitely have to give this a go. I may forget the cheese on top and go for the bacon weave as @gmc2003 suggested.
Awesome as usual!
What we eventually did was smoke them to 115° IT and covered loosely with A. foil to get them to stop cooking. They sat for about 2 hours and then I grilled them to 130° IT.
Most of the people had never had smoked meat before, and they were cooked how I like them, everyone was pleased. The...
I have thought about getting a small portable smoker but could never justify it. Now I know why people get them. I thought they would be good for tailgating, but we never do that.
It turns out the party was at BIL house so on the way there, with wife holding the meat in her lap, she asked why...
The steaks are an after thought, the salmon is the main course. Someone else is cooking it. The person who owns the grill doesn't even know how to use it. It is for guest chef. Salmon is cooked in it often.
I have been asked to smoke these steaks for a party on Sunday.
The situation is complicated and I'm not positive I know how to handle it. After I agreed to do it and after I bought them I was told that the steaks were to be seared after a salmon is cooked on the grill.
At the party there...
I really like the mesquite blend, which I can't get without driving an hour. If the store doesn't start carrying them, I'm going to go and buy a bunch of bags of each and store them. I figure if I have 10 bags, I can make it through the shorter season here in the puget sound.
