Sam's Club Cowboy

[Jim Lampe]

saw these advertised at Sams for $7.98 lb last week, so i swung by to check 'em out...
...and to buy one.

about 2½" thick and weighs 2.94 pounds.
seasoned it with Oakridge BBQ Santa Maria Rub
on the 18" lil' brownie out of the rain... It's first time being used here...

it's getting darker and darker every night...

seared each side for 4 to 5 minutes then off the heat til it reached a comfortable temp...

it took about 25 minutes to temp to 130ºF
so i took it off to rest....

...sorry, i have zero plated shots.
The rib eye was/is big enough to feed 4, we'll polish off the rest of it tonight.

Thank you for stoppin' by!

Great steak Jim, seeing more and more of those monsters on here. Guess I'll have to try one, although Barb and I would eat off of that for a week.
Got the same problem here getting dark earlier than I like to cook in, before you know it the snow will be flyin

Outstanding steak Jim. Yes it is getting darker earlier, but its nice.

 

[Dustin Dorsey]

Awesome steak!

That looks great Jim! I was in our North Seattle Sam's club on Monday and saw the same steaks, only here they were twice the price at almost 15 bucks a lb!

ya know, maybe the sale ended Sunday....? not sure.
I bought this one last Saturday, the 3rd.

No matter the price it looks wonderful. Saw some of those at Costco last week also. Bet it tasted great. What was the USDA grade on that, didn't see it on the label. Could that have been the reason for the price difference?

Oh geez...brain fart here. I must've looked at the total price when I was looking at the steak and thought it was price per lb, duh.

Great price on a gorgeous piece of meat Jim. Looks absolutely delicious!

 

[JimK]

...and to buy one.

Only one? For shame!

Great looking steak. I've been noticing the darkness as well. And I'm not happy about it. Who do we call?

Flintstone Style Grilling!
Go Big or Go Home! Looks superb.
Steak 'n' Eggs tonight?

That steak is massive. Looks like you have a beautiful cooking area.

 

[Steve Whiting]

I picked up an almost identical one at Sams Club last weekend. Cooked it Reverse Sear. Came out great!

 

[Chris Hosston]

Very nice. I wish I could get those in Kansas.

That looks amazing Jim. That must be an 18 you cooked on? Fills the grill
