1 1/2 inch T-Bones Reverse Seared

Picked up these T-Bones for Throwdown 28. Used a reverse sear on this cook. Sided with grilled corn and grilled beans. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Here we go.





















This was a fun cook. Thanks for looking!!
 
Salted T-Bone

When I first read that T-Bone is going to be our challenge, I got really excited. I absolutely love beef! So, when I thought of a way to prep it, I totally wanted to try a different way to tenderize it. I decided to heavily coated with kosher salt. OMG, what amazing result! This T-Bone was so juice and tender, and not salty at all. You need to give this a try. Also, with T-Bones being the star of this challenge, I wanted to showcase it by its self. I will probably do most of my steaks this way. I do have to admit that I was scared at first. Just try it out!!!

Ain't it beautiful


Trust me guys and gals, it was amazing!! It is not salty at all. Please, please, give it a try! LMK what you think
 
My wife went into Portland Friday, so I asked her to stop by one of our favorite butchers, Gartners, and grab some T-Bones.

She came back with these monsters - now, I'm not entirely sure if these are T-bones - They sort of looked Porterhouse-ish to me, but I'm going to roll with it. They are 1" & 3/4 Carlton Farms beef. I'm thinking these should work out nicely....

I made a sauce out of Weber's Art Of Grilling. We've done this reduction sauce many times before, and we absolutely love it. It's beef / wine / balsamic vinegar & vegetable thing. About 7 cups of liquid to start, and you wind up with about 1/2 a cup. It is packed with flavor.

The Northwest is absolutely frying this weekend - We got up to 103 yesterday, and there are red flag warnings for fire danger. I sort of felt compelled to keep a watch on old number 1 out there.

I seasoned these guys and let them rest for about an hour before putting them on.

Plated with some Pesto pasta (Garlic and Basil from the garden) and some corn - The corn is finally getting good around here - Still not local, but we are getting some tasty stuff
