Sounds good to meI have an 18" and 22" WSM, both are great smokers.
State Park on the east end is beautiful. We camped at the park numerous times, before buying a house on the island.
Next time you're on the island let me know. We can meetup at Paddy's for oysters and beer.
Cheers
I did a pretty good rant "against" reverse searing somewhere on this forum. Luckily the rant wasn't too controversial and other forum members were understanding.... I'm probably batting 0.300 or less with Rev sear and close to 1.000 with other steak grilling methods. I think Rev Sear is the right thing for REALLY thick steaks, but most of the time I'm in that 1 to 1.25" range where it's better to just keep flippin' or sear and move over to a indirect 300 to 350 F temp zone.Hey, John
I do use the vortex along with a cast iron center insert. Makes for some great tasting steaks. I do like searing then finishing off on the side. Not sure about all the rave about reverse searing. I was taught that searing locked in the juices, then you can bring up to desired doneness. Also, I use the MEATER+ to get it just right.
