I cooked my first 2.5# cowboy ribeye steak today, using an overnight dry brine and reverse sear as you demonstrated. My God, it was the best steak I’ve ever cooked; I am 75 years old and have been cooking heavily since I was 8. I don’t have a Green Egg but my 22 inch Weber with indirect coals and cast iron grill worked beautifully. THANK YOU!

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing - and keep up the great grilling on that Weber!

I'm extremley happy to be part of those subs that have been able to see your amazing growth!! Congrats Al and blessings are yet to come your way!!

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Thanks Milton!!! I'm actually getting ready to make a community post about it!

[@corygreene4280]

wow! that is the cleanest cooking surface i've ever seen!

[@SDSBBQs]

Quick Cure... LOL I can tell you that you are one of the only people I watch that I genuinely want to cook the things you are showing off. Thanks and sorry I can't seem to sit down and watch your videos more in real time. You upload on Sundays? and I watch more YT Mon-Fri mainly. Damn this one was good... drool

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Dry Brine! LOL! Thanks so much for the kind words, Dash. I hope you know how honored I am to be in your circle. I tried uploading on Friday and it didn’t work so I’m back to 11am ET on Saturday. And I don’t care when you watch I just appreciate so much that you do!

[@SDSBBQs]

@@BehindTheFoodTV yeah I miss SO many videos from the weekend 😢 I need post notifications... I'll be fixing that in a few! Man I am a fan so it's me who is glad to be in YOUR circle!

[@SDSBBQs]

Funny I had notifications on... I changed to get all notifications

I can imagine Tom and Jerry's gonna be cutting those pieces. 🧡💙 Happy Pre Father's day Al.

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Haha thanks Nelson! Great to "see" you again - thanks for all of the support!

I just ordered four, 2" Cowboys for our anniversary dinner this week, but I asked that they *not* be trimmed. I'll make tallow with the fat, and I LOVE the meat next to that bone! reverse searing on the grill, not smoking. :D

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Happy Anniversary! With four 2” Cowboys it sounds like the kids get to eat well too! Some day think about using 2 grills - smoke on the PBC and sear on the big guy! Thanks for watching and for all of the support Andrea!

[@AndreaShink]

@@BehindTheFoodTV we do use two, for some things, like chicken. We prefer our steaks grilled, not smoked. Yes, the girls also get one because... why share a Cowboy??!

[@matthawaii]

Seems like it wasn't in the butter long enough to make a difference...did you baste more than you showed?

[@tlc2011jlc]

We have an offset, and a Kettle Jo. Love em both. Just scored a brand new Big Green Egg for 2 hundred, because the buyer returned it. It does have 2 pieces broken inside fire box , about 1/4 of fire ring. Any recommendations on repair or should I just cook and don't worry about it?

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Congrats on the new egg! If the firebox is not in one piece I’d look to replace it if you can. Repairing ceramic is usually futile. A crack shouldn’t be an issue though.

[@tlc2011jlc]

@@BehindTheFoodTV thank you

[@kevincobb4346]

What size cast iron skillet did you use for the XL or do you have s link for it?

[@brocwavra8813]

Can you please explain how closed the vents were when doing it at 250 degrees

[@2Wheels_NYC]

Damn good looking steak! I just did a 2 inch thick NY strip in the same method, one of the best steaks I've eaten recently!

[@richiepickett9416]

I love my XL Big Green Egg and i have that same table but damn take care of your table lol. I keep mine garaged and i hit it with some Murphy’s oil often 🥩 great cook tho!

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Hi Richie! I'm on table number 3 now :-)

[@frankcuschieri7064]

Enjoy you videos Al.. Was that one 250g block of butter used? I need to try this..

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Thanks, Frank! Over here they sell it as an 8oz (227g) block - and you’re right I used the whole thing :-). Appreciate you watching sir! -Al

[@arrogant5150]

New to the channel. Wondering where you got that huge cast iron pan. Steak looks amazing by the way

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Welcome! Is your name in any way related to the IBM 5150, or am I just dating myself? lol. Easy answer to your question - you can get it here: emv4.me/Skillet17

[@arrogant5150]

@@BehindTheFoodTV Thanks for the link to the pan. Appreciate it. 5150 is CA slang but is pretty much a medical hold for the crazy

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

@@arrogant5150 that's awesome!

[@HOBrian2003]

Love the videos Al! Happy Fathers Day!

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Thanks Brian - and the same to you!

[@Medieval_Arpad_cooks]

Al, make yourself a mix of black, long, white pepper and cubebs. about even proportions

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Of all of my friends (can I call you a friend?), you are literally one one of two who would bring up piper cubeba casually in a sentence :-). The other one is a food blogger called "The Food Dictator" (remember that goat leg recipe of insanity?). I'm definitely going to try this. I'm thinking both ground into a rub, and also crushed and tossed into the searing butter. Thanks, Arpad!

[@Medieval_Arpad_cooks]

@@BehindTheFoodTV make sure to use a good black and white pepper like sarawak or kampot. And of course piper longum :) I have this in my pepper grinder on the table.

[@sergeolchowec905]

No need to fry your stake in butter. Yak . Natural meat just needs salt& fire .

[@recipesunclassified8040]

Love it. Wish I was there to eat it with you.

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

I wish you were here too! Some day my friend!

[@9929kingfish]

That steak looks amazing and your litter girl is a ham. She must take after her mother. haha. I would have spooned some of that garlic/herb butter over that steak. I don't like to waste good butter.

It’s hard being a 9 year-old!

[@MrMorganca]

Yee Haw! May I chew on the bone?

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

Yee Haw indeed! You're a great dad and tomorrow is Father's Day - so the bone is all yours!

[@jacqueshughes3085]

Did I just lick my computer screen??? Damn, sorry!!

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

lol I hate when that happens! 😂

[@IIrandhandleII]

Took excess fat off why?

[@BehindTheFoodTV]

For those not on the carnivore diet, that fat just gets in the way of seasonings and ends up getting discarded as it doesn't render.
