What's for dinner tonight? Dinner ideas?

What about using a pizza steel, vs a pizza stone…

Yeah, I think it would stick to pizza steel very well. I would almost bet that would turn into disaster..

I like to use the Lodge cast iron griddle:

Lodge Double Play 16.75 in. Black Cast Iron Reversible Stovetop Griddle LDP3 - The Home Depot

The Lodge two burner reversible griddle features a smooth side for making grilled cheese sandwiches as well as eggs and pancakes. The ribbed side is perfect for grilling foods such as steak, fish, chicken

I use this for all my searing. Haven't felt the need to get Grill Grates yet.

I have one of those and love it. I find myself searing in cast iron all the time and haven’t touched the grill grates in a while.

I use GrillGrates for my salmon cooking. Personally not keen on infusing fish oil into my pizza stone, but that's me.

Good call!

Ribeye tonight..
Smoking with hickory at 165, until 110 IT then on the Weber sear station..

My thought on pizza steel was that it would not adsorb the oil, then you could use Traeger or stainless steel cleaner to get the oil off afterwards…

I agree, but it would stick badly.

Ribeye all done

Ditto on the butcher paper. Another advantage of doing it this way is that when you're done, peeling the paper off takes the skin with it.

Yup! Skin sticks to the paper and makes it very easy to serve the fish. And just toss the paper in the trash when done so no need to clean baked on fish off a pan!

Turkey breast. Mixed it in with some other stuff to make bowls similar to those at Chipotle.

Sadly, I'm on the road this week. Stopped at an Outback steak house where I have had decent luck (as long as you lower your expectations), but tonight was the worst steak I have ever had.

I ordered the 15 oz. Ribeye medium rare and I have never before had to hack & saw to get a piece of beef free of gristle and silver skin before. I save the results for the manager and told them this was the worst cut of beef I have ever had at an Outback or any other steak house.

He offered me to redo another one which was nice & proper, but I declined. He ended up comping half the price of the dinner and thanked me for point it out.

I just wonder if this is due to the beef issues today. I mean, it was a pretty poor ribeye with all that connective tissue that had to be hacked through and set aside.

I can actually see a big strip of silver skin in that…Not good

 

[Slimpicker]

It's almost as if it wasn't a ribeye

 

[RemE]

Sadly, it looks like what mom used to make, rest her dear soul. That's what I grew up with! Till I was old enough to grill my own.

Bought a bottle of raging river rub, if if gets here in time, I will try it on Saturday…

Bottle came in this Afternoon, will give it a try on Saturday....
