Hi all, after how we always get sidetracked talking about food somewhere here on this site, I decided to start a thread devoted to food, of any type, as long as it is delicious. So as the GM would always say some thing about steaks, here's my entry Dedicated to the GM, a gourmet of meats 20 oz ribeye steak, first heavy smoked for about 1-2 hours (cold smoke), then grilled over high heat to medium rare. Topped off with melted butter. Buttered cut corn on the side Washed down with some good iced tea sliced pineapple for dessert
I really have nothing to add as steak is the bomb and you prepared it to the perfect, medium rare. Never tried the smoke on a steak though, may have to look into it.

I would take chocolate cream pie for dessert. Also, have some melted chocolate to dip a few pieces of steak in. (Yeah...I'm a chocoholic.....and I refuse to beat my addiction!!)
A rack of boneless ribs. After marinating for 48 hours, smoked over mesquite and a low flame for several hours. Basted in BBQ honey sauce. Mixed veggies on the side (with pleanty of butter). Buttered homemade mashed potatoes. Fresh cesar salad. Several glasses of sun brewed iced tea. Several slices of chocolate cream pie, topped with chocolate whipped cream for desert.
Just looking at that makes me want to go to Walmart and buy some steak. lol. Yep and cook it right now!!!! OH the smoke flavor is GREAT ferguj1!! You have to try that sometime. I'll say one thing, knowing where iluvend hails from (cali) and his "working" background he is a refreshing "lover of good meat" in the crowd of health gurus in the land of "fruits and nuts". LOL. ....gm
Smoked chicken marinate with 1:1 Lawrys seasoned salt, regular table salt for 12-14 hours (1 rounded tsp per pound of bird) Slow smoke for 9-10 hours home made bbq sauce catsup, sugar,some vinegar to taste, hot sauce. Bring to a boil, and set aside (oh that combo of tangy and sweet and hot ) Brush on chicken at last hour of smoking Enjoy
Mashed potatoes with some sour cream in them, dark turkey, perfectly cooked, corn, raspberry sauce, orange jell-o with real orange slices in it, stuffing...... Man, October (November for you Americans) cannot come fast enough.
Surf and turf 20 oz ribeye (medium rare) grilled over open flame lobster tail 2x10 oz (broiled or steamed to perfection)
Two skinless, boneless chicken breasts soaked in a bowl of beer for one hour, cooked slowy over charcoal. Two ears of corn on the cob with real butter, A fresh ceasar salad with extra croutons and lots of freshly grated mozzarella cheese. Last but not least, 2 ice cold Molson Canadian beer to wash it all down with.
One big ole T-bone steak marinaded overnight in beer, terriyaki marinade, Lawry's seasoned salt (the only acceptable kind, IMHO) and Montreal Steak Seasoning. Grilled on an open flame for seven minutes a side. (rare, but not bleeding) Mashed potatoes with an artery clogging amount of REAL butter. And fried okra on the side. Washed down with a couple of Blue Moon's.
Oi!! I know you.... I'm betting my next smokers worth the "wee lil mon" can do it!@!!!!! Heck I know I can do it.... hehehee. ;P .....gm
#1 McDonalds combo with no onions and extra pickles...Orange drink (not soda pop, orange drink #6 Taco BEll Combo with soft shells and pinto's and cheese! LOLOLOLOL!!! Seriously though, this is my first real experiment growing a VEGETABLE garden, its that time of year my habenero peppers have been ready for a few weeks and my cayenne peppers are turning from green to red so they are nearly ready. I will dry them, crush them, and use them as a pepper rub for ribs and chicken or anything that needs a little zing! I also planted some purple bell peppers and they are very sweet, have tossed them with ground beef in various tomato sauces for pizza/spaghetti. It just seems to taste better knowing I grew it myself.
Good grief guys, I just ate and I still am soaking my keyboard. I am up in the air though which is fixing my steak, iluvendo or 7thsinger, maybe both!
ferguj, we both are, so get an appetite and come on over ! In the mean time broiled lobster tail Green onion and ginger crab Chinese baked (bbq) pork Scallops in a chili black bean sauce (chinese) And........................ Carne asada
Cardinal Iluvendo, don't forget that you must have homemade tortillas for carne asada. None of that store bought crap!!
