...is something that's difficult to find around me and I've only had it a couple of times, but it's been awhile. The only place that does have it occasionally is Food Lion and it's around $11/lb. which I think is too expensive.
Anyway, I was in Food Lion and looking through the meat case when I spotted 2 about 3 lbs. each that were reduced so I grabbed them. My plan was to smoke and reverse sear one so here we go...
The victim...
Minimal trimming and seasoned up with Kinder's Master Salt...
Onto a kettle to smoke with some pecan...
At about 115℉, moved over the flame for the sear. Didn't get much sear because the temp jumped up quick...
Pulled at 125℉ to rest...
Fresh squash is everywhere now so I made some pan fried squash and onions, a huge favorite of my wife. Really simple, just slice a large onion and 2 squash into ¼" thick slices. Heavy drizzle of EVOO in a pan and place them in. Medium heat and don't stir them much if you want them to brown. When tender and browned to your liking, season with salt and pepper to taste...
Made a bowl of mashed potatoes...
Sliced the steak...
Served with home grown sliced tomatoes, time to eat...
Love the flavor and I'm really envious of you folks that can get these all the time and at a much better price than me...
