Was between Steak or Prime rib for Christmas to go with the 17# ham I picked up and found a good price on 3 big tomahawks and decided to go with them (would have loved to have it all in 1 big piece but...). Cross-hatched the ham and put my sweet/spicy pork rub on it for a little extra something something. Smoked the ham at around 275* for a couple hrs solo then got the tomahawks ready with a simple SPOG and dropped then temp to 250* to line them up for a nice reverse sear. About 80-90 min on the recteq and then onto the komodo at around 500* for the hard sear finished them around 135-140, then went up probably another 5* each during the rest.
Had a few side dishes: mac and cheese (blue box for the kids), authentic(ish) Carbonara, balsamic glazed green beans with bacon, sauteed broccoli, cheesy potatoes, mashed potatoes, & Parkerhouse rolls... I know it's a lot
Some spinach artichoke dip & smoked cream cheese wiht my sweet/spicy pork rub again for an appetizer which turned out really good and was gone in minutes, next time, I'll know to double the cream cheese app.
Sliced up the steaks and finished the pasta and dinner was served! The steaks, ham and the carbonera got hammered... not much left over for brunch the next day, guess that's a good thing
!
Merry Christmas all and Happy Smoking New Years!
