Ribeye Steak Reverse Seared On The Weber Kettle After Dry Brining Overnight

[@davidbowles7047]

Ry, I did your reversed seared Ribeyes for our anniversary dinner and it was awesome! I also melted some crumbled blue cheese on top OMG!!!! Thanks for the wishes and the recipe.

[@CookingWithRy]

Blue cheese...you're making me drool :)

[@harrymore2330]

Cooked these yesterday here in the UK, first time reverse searing on the weber with a little oak smoke - it was a perfect cook! Thanks, Ry! Will be checking out some of your other cooks for sure.

[@CookingWithRy]

Oak is terrific for steaks :)

[@sipzter]

Hello Ry - Did this cook yesterday, Easter for my family of four. Didn't reverse sear as the meat didn't need it! Also, made Hasselback potatoes. Everyone loved it. You received credit at t he dinner table! Thank you.

[@CookingWithRy]

Awesome! Love some good Hasselbacks :)

[@hbjeff36]

Delicious! Ry, during this lockdown we have some downtime, maybe do a video on your grill/smoker maintenance and cleaning?

[@4MzBBQandGRILL]

That’s two fine looking hunks of beef! You and the kettle did an awesome job. Great video 👍🏻

[@318seanmarshall]

I followed this recipe for my father-in-law's birthday dinner with 2 inch thick ribeyes and it knocked down the house. That's right, it collapsed. People had never eaten steak that good. I had never cooked a steak that good. I am now my in-law's favorite in-law. Thanks Ry, you're the absolute best

[@CookingWithRy]

That’s fantastic!

[@Gibblens]

Have a kettle on order and these vids are getting me excited! Thanks for the tips!

[@brittsbackyardbbqngrill]

That roast made 2 very nice steaks. Great job on the slow cook. You could tell they were tender on that 1st cut. Great video Ry.

[@tnleeo]

Oh, you're mean! Beautiful steak, and that background music really shows how much fun it is to delight in the tranquility of cooking. I tend to move quick, but love the wait!

[@Fat_Rob]

I do it opposite, I sear first the go indirect, turns out pretty good . Maybe i'm just backwards. Nice video Ry !

[@danielarchibald3247]

I love medium rare steak, but mom won't eat anything she thinks is bloody(not well done). So I did something that even I liked. Cook a steak low and slow(225 degrees Fahrenheit)like a brisket. Then reverse sear it to medium well cold grate method. Came out pretty good. Low and slow renders the fat and connective tissue to make it tender. Then searing it gives the bark an extra punch. Works for doing medium rare also.

[@handcannon1388]

My wife is the same way. She also won't eat an entire large steak herself. One solution, and what I usually do, is to shoot for medium-rare on all of them - then I cut her whatever she wants and I nuke the damn thing in the microwave until it is just adequately gray enough for her to eat. No steaks have to die on the grill, and there isn't a bunch of overdone steak left over for me to have to eat. I tried some, and the taste isn't really effected, though tenderness and juiciness are - but no more than it would be if grilled straight through.

[@danielquezada3058]

I’ve been a lot more confident with my Weber kettle. Thanks to you Ry!

[@DavePruett]

Great minds think alike. I am doing exactly the same cook tomorrow. I have one 2.25 lb bone-in ribeye dry brining in the fridge as I write this. That's. plenty for my wife and I. I just hit it with some Killer Hogs Steak Seasoning. I'll use the same setup on the Weber Kettle. Today was pork butt day and it was great!

[@handcannon1388]

Mesquite is my favorite smoke wood to add when grilling steaks. Those that hate it are likely using way too much wood.

[@JuanGutierrez-vm3iz]

Great recipe to cook Rib Eye thanks and take care yourself and your family with this virus god bless you

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

Wise move on cutting the ribeye roast in half. Reverse sear works real well and obviously those steaks turned out perfect. A lot of times the best seasoning is the simple ones, salt and pepper works for a reason. Hope you’re doing well Ry!

[@CookingWithRy]

You take care, my friend :)

The best way to enjoy a rib-eye when they are that big! Nice Ry

[@susananni]

Good morning. I just thought I would share what happened to me cause I did not follow your directions. I thought it would be easier if i seared the steaks for two minutes per side, then insert the thermometer , and then finish over indirect heat till it reached 125. The thermometer for some reason read way too high and the outside of the steak seamed almost greasy. Next time I will follow your directions to the letter! Love your show!

[@marcinluczak4755]

Hi Ry, great vid as always and no brown background. It looks so much better!!! Greetz from the Netherlands!

[@marcinluczak4755]

Btw, you still do not mention that the vents setting is a proper one for you but not necessarily for the watchers. As it depends on many factors, it would be good to say it. Thnx!

[@SPralphy7651]

They do look amazing Ry, thank you. I have grilled New York steaks using reverse sear method and they were also so amazing. I did not brine overnight though. Also on my steaks I use SPG and onion powder. I’ve never seen anyone do this on you tube but it is so so delicious. Love your channel BTW. 👍

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@bburke45]

Two questions: 1) why did you include pepper when salted for the brine; and 2) where did you get the grill grate?

[@CookingWithRy]

The pepper is just part of the seasoning that is going to be on their for the cook so I like getting it on there with the rest. That’s the Malory M1 Cast Iron Grate.

[@bburke45]

Thanks. I don’t usually season until after the brine so I was curious if there was a reason for doing it with the brine.

[@ChuckRiley]

Those grates look fantastic. Have you experienced any problems with rust? Thanks and be safe.

[@CookingWithRy]

No, but you do have to maintain them like any cast iron. Even if a spot of rust should develop some steel wool on the spot followed by a reseasoning should handle it just like a cast iron pan :)

[@jerrycontreras5550]

Wow great looking Steaks Ry. did you have the big opening on the vortex up?

[@CookingWithRy]

Yes, wide opening up :)

Is there a way to do steaks over direct heat without flare-ups? Open flames look like they’re charring the meat.

[@CookingWithRy]

You can increase the distance between the coals and the meat, such as when using a Santa Maria grill.

[@thomastommy1192]

Wow, I have never seen a two and half-pound steak. (That sucker looked good before you cooked it, lol). We usually buy a 3-pound chuck roast for the whole family.

Ry, did you cut the slot for your probe cord? If so, what did you end up doing it with? I was thinking about using a saw and cutting down until the cord hangs below the lip for the lid to shut. Thoughts?

I actually did a video on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJ-0pKOtm7h5fdk I used a Dremel and cut slots in the lip of the kettle and in the lip of the lid. If I was going to do it again I would not do the lid slot since it's not necessary :)

Did you let them come to room temp before cooking? Some do and some don’t.

[@CookingWithRy]

I didn't. I've tried both ways and I honestly can't tell the difference.

[@handcannon1388]

Actually, it takes quite a while to come up to room temperature. I split the difference and leave them out while I get the grill ready, which usually amounts to a half hour or so. It seems to work well, and is convenient.

[@Klink52]

Cooking With Ry I too have done it both ways. I have also heard that a more intense smoke ring comes from colder meat.

[@marcup1584]

Hey Ry, do you find that the grate temperature matters at all? Or as long as I have my steaks far away from the coals on the indirect side it's all the same? I see other people recommending keeping it below 250F, but it's really challenging unless you put very few coals, which makes searing an issue (have to add more coals later I guess?) Also, is the Vortex worth it for this method? Or would I be able to get similar results by just making a tight pile on my direct heat side?

[@CookingWithRy]

For this type of cook I don’t worry excessively about the grate level temp. And the vortex does make it easier but a pile of charcoal will work fine 😊

Love you rye but that’s not a sear... it’s just a little touch of fire. Before going direct prepare another chimney of screaming hot charcoals and sear it until it’s brown. You need a LOT of heat to sear properly, those few charcoals for indirect are just not enough Have a nice rest of the day

@@CookingWithRy I do the same thing you did, works for me. In fact, that was what I had for dinner yesterday and tonight. Adding more coals only for the sear has always seemed wasteful to me. I did envy your steaks; mine were around supermarket standard at 1" thick. You can still use the same method, but you just have to be more careful; since you can overshoot your temperature easier with a thinner steak.
