Weber Pork Steaks & 1st HB potatoes

[Bob Correll]

Two large pork steaks with a combined weight of 2.8 lbs.
Rubbed with WEBER Classic Rub.

My first attempt at hasselback potatoes.
WEBER Steak & Chop Seasoning sprinkled between slices, and on top of the bacon.

A basket full of K-blue with a chunk of peach wood to start.
The steaks and spuds were put on the WEBER Performer using WEBER tongs.

Locked in at 300.

Crisped up the bacon and put pieces of it between the potato slices.

Fresh grated Asiago on 2, a Mex cheese mix on the other 2.
WEBER Original bbq sauce on the steaks.

Plattered up. no plated shots

The bourbon, pork steaks, and corn were all excellent.
But the HB's were not done enough, even after over 2.5 hours on the grill.
Next time I'll par-cook, or cast iron 'em over direct heat.

WEBER's Original sauce is pretty good, not too sweet, not much if any heat.
It has molasses and no corn syrup in it.

Thanks for the visit!

Great looking meal Bob. I take it that you like Weber products

I too had the problem of getting my hasselbeck potatos cooked through. The pork steaks look delicious. Great photos.

 

[Don Cash]

Bet that was a fun cook. Sure looks great!
I've never gotten HBs to cook all the way either.

 

[Mike Coffman]

Fantabulous cook and photos Bob!

 

[Mark Skeet]

Bob - as usual, great pork steaks. With all the Weber products you used I suspect that a royalty check is on its way.

 

[John Solak]

Very nice looking cook Bob!!

 

[Greg in Utah]

Looks good to me and I'm a sucker for blue kettles

 

[Jon Des.]

I don't care if the Hasselbacks were still raw in the middle, I'd eat them!

[Morgan C.]

[Wolgast]

Looks fantastic! Cant belive the HB`s dident get done in that time. I baked some really big hwole ones and they got done in 2h. Dident really temp the grill though

 

[Bob Correll]

Thanks everyone!

Daniel,
Just had lunch, nuked one of the leftover HB spuds for about 3 minutes, and the sucker was still crunchy.
I suspect defective potatoes

Yours looks GREAT!
I've found that Hassels work best in the oven

sorry, butt true. (375º 4anHour)
What's in that fancy rocks glass photoONE?

Great lookin' pork steaks Bob!

I have found that pre-cooking HB taters in the microwave for 3-4 mins per potato really helps speed them up. Not sure, but I think using some sort of oil ( I use EVOO & butter with fresh gaaahlic and parmesan cheese) may help too.

That just looks great.
