About 6 months ago the meat cutter at a local grocery saw me with 4 chuck roast in my cart .
He asked me if I ever had chuck eye steak . Nope . He says " like a Ribeye " . I'm thinking sure it is .
Well I broke down and tried them about 2 weeks ago . I'm hooked . Done them 3 times since . These things are so tender . The first ones I did , I didn't know what to expect . So I put them in the SV @ 132 for 4 hours . Then into a hot cast iron grill pan my kids got me for fathers day ( love that thing ) . This is how the first ones came out .
Out of the SV dried off and into a hot pan .
Just a little past how I like it , but really tender .
Second cook , I went on the weber indirect with some mesquite chunks . Then over the coals .
No cut pic of this . I was hungry and the smell was killing me . The smoke flavor on these was awesome . Made up for the lack of char .
Last night was the best . Straight on the HOT coals . So tender . Bearcarver told me they like to fall apart when grilling . He was right . Had to careful .
This is the way I like to do baked taters . Coat the spuds in olive oil , then kosher salt . Wrap in foil , then right in the coals . Scrub then off good first , because the skin is incredible .
Might as well throw the corn on too .
OK , corn and taters are done . Time for some steaks
Burn the grate off , move the sides . Throw the meat on .
No lid ! One time flip .
These were so good . Tender , juicy and the flavor is awesome .
Best out of the 3 cooks . The corn and taters come out great like that also .
So if you see chuck eye Steaks , give them a try .
Thanks for lookin .
