Secret To The Perfect Steak? | 1500ºF Seared Tomahawk Ribeye | Ballistic BBQ

Two tomahawk ribeyes seared to perfection at 1500ºF on the Blazing Bull Grill! blazingbullgrills.com/ These steaks weighed 3.25 pounds each, so I gave them 2 minutes of 1500ºF searing on each side, then finished them off in the drip-tray, along with a little butter and fresh herbs. The result was one of the juiciest steaks I have ever had! Amazing flavor and the crust couldn't have been any better! During my testing, I also cooked up a homemade pizza, and a swordfish steak, which I feature towards the end of the video.

I just got the Dry Ager DX 1000. It is AMAZING! I was looking at getting the Otto Wilde grill, but may get this instead. Something awesome about dry aging your own cuts, and searing them on a unit capable of putting out top steak house heat. Because of the controlled environment of the Dry Ager, my dry aged cuts lose only 18% of their weight.

[@BallisticBBQ]

Great combo! 1500º of muscle and home-aged beef!

[@wayneburns4065]

Hey Greg, great job! Just curious, what meat thermometers were you using?

[@jackie7819]

Greg, I had my doubts early on in the cook, but at about 6:40 I saw you were on the right track! I eat tons of steak, in the winter I like doing French style in a screaming hot cast iron pan, and in the summer on my Weber kettle with the GrillGrates. BTW an intersting discovery I recently found is that the soy sauce sold at Asian supermarkets has far more depth of flavor and umami and much less salt, a good one is called "La Bo De" soy sauce. I used it to marinade a London Broil recently that I tenderized first with a jacard and the flavor was amazing. I marinated in a 50/50 mix of Worcheshire and soy sauce. The authentic Asian market soy sauces are worlds different than generic "Americanized" Kikoman and store brand soy suaces. And they aren't much more expensive than the generic brands. I wish you were my neighbor we'd have some great cooks!

[@BabyBackManiac]

That was a fantastic review Greg. That was smart using grate as a diffuser. As you know, I have the Beefer. 1500 degrees is awesome, but I wish I had some of the features yours has. The extra width, the adjustable height, and grates that won’t fall out make it a lot more practical.

[@BallisticBBQ]

Thank you Justin. I'm going to have some fun with this little (but big) grill.

[@stevendykes1006]

Curious on where you get these steaks and average pricing for one of them. I gotta try this cook sometime on my Weber 22" charcoal!

[@daripperful]

Definitely did it the best from all the others who used this blazing bull. He put the meat exactly where it needed to be as far as the height to sear and finish cooking.

[@elfcane]

[@user-cg6uc8sy3g]

WOW, just wow. Those steaks looked absolutely amazing. You can see the juice from them when you were cutting them. That grill though kind of scares me, just thinking about that accident cause you were paying attention while using. How much heat radiates from the outside of it? It looks amazing, and I would love to have one. Keep up the great vids, can't wait too see more now the I am subbed finally. Stay safe, healthy and keep them coming. Thank you.

[@BallisticBBQ]

Actually, the heat coming out of the front isn't too crazy. One of the UL tests this unit had to pass was having a terrycloth towel laying on the top, towards the opening. The unit only passes if the towel does not catch fire.

[@quint7394]

im gonna try this with my masterbuilt grav grill. 700+ deg any thoughts?

Thanks for the review on that cooker. I can see how 1500 degrees would be nice to have. But that's a lot of steps and moving parts to clean. Not sure it's gonna replace a simple reverse sear. However, it's an awesome cooker and it was fun watching your video.

Good god man, how can you stand there talking about that steak so long without diving in? You have amazing self control 😉

[@raychang8648]

Great video, Greg, but what did you do with the bones? Are they porous or can you actually dig the marrow out? You could mix that with a little olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, other seasonings, and Worchestershire sauce to make a garden salad dressing. You could boil those bones for a very long time and keep adding water as it boils down. Finally, add veggies and meat or fish and make a soup. Then, you could cut the bones into 3-4 inch sections to be used as "straws" for the soup. I see those bones and my head is just a flurry of recipes. Great video, Greg!!! Keep up the good videos! Much love from Taiwan, buddy!

[@BallisticBBQ]

Great ideas. I hit the meat that was still on the bone with a little savory sauce, and my son tore into them like a caveman!

[@MrPanthers23]

Man. I keep telling myself I get that type of sear on my weber kettle with SNS. I cant make myself believe ot though.

[@jessesilverssr7198]

OMG I gained 5lbs just looking at those tomahawks lol. My granddaughter told me that is too much for me to eat. I gave her $20 bucks and told her to leave me alone and not to tell her mom my daughter. BUT IT WAS OH SO GOOD.

[@timtullio1210]

I prefer a bit more char on the outside, but I'm sure that could have been easily accomplished. The inside looked great. I have a Napoleon grill with a IR under burner and I cook everything I can on the IR part. It's the only way to sear and cook meat.
