Prime cook

[Darryl - swazies]

Had a prime NY strip roast about 3 pounds I picked up recently. Gave it a quick 1 hour freeze just so I could cut into some nice steaks.
I had 4 nice size steaks cut from it. Tonight’s indirect cook is going to be carne crosta strip either in steak tacos or burrito bowl dinner. Guacamole and Pico de Gallo is made. So either fried veggies in shells or rice in bowls.
Still need to decide but the toppings are done and just enjoying a few beverages first. This cut of beef looks stellar.
Final pics after dinner. It’s going to be a good one, this steak is pretty thick, looking for a finished nice 130 degree red steak.

I think that is the best look New York Strip I have ever seen, looking forward to this one.

All rubbed up, on the indirect now.

Steak turned out juicy and rich for sure.....dinner may have been better in taco shell style but the meat was fabulous.
This prime cut is rich and delicious.

Thanks, it was so rich I could only eat about 6 ounces of it. I am way to used to lower cuts of beef that when I start cramming all that fat down the hole it gets rich fast for me.
3 more just like it in the freezer, will make taco's next time for sure.
Thanks for looking!

When I did my first prime steak last week, my kids keep grabbing pieces (because it was so good) and I was worried I wasn't going to get enough, but in the end I did not eat near as much as I thought I would, and I think you are right it was mostly because it was much richer than the choice cuts I usually cook.
