I grabbed a couple chuck eyes the other day - cooked one tonight along with a twice-baked potato. I think the first time I tried a twice baked potato was last night, this cooked baker was leftover from it. I rubbed EVOO & salt on them last night, and last nights 2bP was was definitely crispier.

I fired up the gasser with peach chips in the moe's smokin pouch, let it warm up (2 front burners) on high for 10 minutes.

Put on the steak for 3.5 minutes timer (4 min reality) each side & then off (8 min cook for the chuck eyes).

I was seeing how many beers I could drink before I ate

I have another CES in the fridge, and a nice fat ribeye in the freezer so I'll get to play around with this a bit, but can't think of much I'd like to change.
 
Yah, nice job on those steaks. I did a couple NY STrips tonight on my Genny 1000 and wound up doing them MW when I really wanted MR. I am used to doing them on the Q100 and keep forgetting the difference in temps between the two grills. They were still great steaks, just not that nice pink center.
 
I'm not sure Clint, but I think your snow melted some....... about 1/2 inch! That meal is pure goodness too. Twice baked potatoes are one of my favorites.

Clint where do you place the smokin' pouch on your gasser?

Thanks!

over the 2 front burners that go east-west (or left-right), the third burner in the back under the warming rack, if I use it above the low setting the grill will catch fire (build-up that I can't see from wings/bacon/etc).

If you have an amaze-in maze or a cold smoke tube, you can use that too.

I just lift the grate out when it's cold (also have a hay hook type tool I keep out there so I can easily move the grates when hot) and set the pouch right on the flavorizer bars, always on the left side (just how i do it).

Nice way to add some smoke flavor with the ease of a gas grill.
 
I've been loving these twice-baked potatoes, I made 6 halves last night - 3 large bakers, baked for >45 minutes @ 425F, rubbed with a little sea salt & EVOO. I let them cool for a while while, and when I was about ready to make them I put ~3 Tbsp butter, probably 4 Tbsp sour cream, a bunch of sea salt, pepper, 3-4 chopped chives, a splash of worchestershire, ~1 tsp or so horseradish, and I was going to add buttermilk but just added a little sour cream to get it looking creamy....then I added a bunch more salt (to taste), then colby jack cheese mixed in, not a lot this time. I put them in a 12" cast iron pan, dropped the temp to 350, and let them go for another 35 or so minutes.

They seem to be a decent travel food, I love potatoes, and plan on trying a few more variations, plus it gave me some ideas on roasting veggies........ also got a rack for my jelly roll pan that makes me want to try something new with my home fries/mod.

Thanks, I have a Genesis 1000 LX so this will work out fine.

I've had this saved for quite a while, wanting to try these. Tonight was the night! They were a very well-received alternative to our normal potato routine. Thanks!

Glad you liked them! I made up a batch last Sunday too :)

I try to make extras.........they travel well.
 
These yummy TBP's are on the menu again tonight along with a Kettle-rotisserie turkey breast :). Come on, dinner time.

From my log: "I made these May 2018. They were awesome. Troy went crazy."
