Cut up some red potatoes for dinner. Wanted to do something different with them, so first off put 16 pats of butter in the cast iron skillet.
Then I topped each with a half spoon of minced garlic and sprinkled with Penzeys Forward. I then sliced up a Vidalia sweet onion and added it
to the skillet. I then dusted them with Penzeys Mural of Flavor.

Put onto the grill with a few chunks of oak wood.

Chuck Eyes were salted and then hit with Penzeys Chicago Steak Seasoning.

Potatoes off the grill. Need to pay a bit more attention when cooking them, the onions got a tad overdone.

Steaks onto the grill, direct for about 1½ minute per side, then indirect for about 5 minutes.

I have to agree heartily with my wife that these were the best steaks we have ever eaten. I did something a bit different with these as
I salted them and let them get to almost room temperature and then put the Chicago Steak Seasoning on them. By the time they hit the grill
they were at room temperature. I believe now what I have read about steaks being tenderer if they are at room temperature before putting
them on the grill. I really like the Penzeys Chicago Steak Seasoning. Will definitely be getting a larger bottle the next time I am at
Penzeys in Jacksonville. The potatoes came out fantastic, even with the burnt onions. The flavor of the garlic and the seasonings mixed well together.
Got to give a big thanks to Jim Lampe for turning me onto to Chuck Eye Steaks!

Thanks for looking and letting me be long winded again!
 
Chuck eyes were on sale this week at Winn Dixie, so we picked up a couple pounds of them. Based on what's in the package, and what I see in the pictures, they may even be *real* Chuck eyes, and not mislabeled Chuck steaks. So I'm pretty excited to cook them up.
 
My thought was that i will only respond to a few posts couse i missed so many. You just changed that. AWESOME!
 
Mike, Hinesville isn't that far away....A simple invite would be nice!

Also, I can't find any chuck eye steaks either, but what I can get from my local commissary is a chuck eye roast. I then cut off how many steaks I want and then cook the roast. Next one I buy will be all steaks cut up.
