A Cook Off For Kathryn….@Fxzdoc

[Allon]

Well, as long as it's for Kathryn...

I'm in!

As a matter of fact, I just prepared the Bronco for a nice 1.25lb. Ribeye.
Reverse sear over charcoal... Yes sir.

A little S & P, garlic and onion powders... Not too much...

Aim for 200° - 225°F smoke temperature to IT if 110° - 120°F. Then rest to reconfigure the Bronco for searing and crank up the BTU's.

Good eating tonight!

Sunday: Lagostino lobster tails\Shrimp scampi...
Seafood Scampi! Roasted bay scallops.
Sides: TBD

🔥🔥🔥

Oh gosh, Panhead John and fellow Pit friends, I'm awed and honored to have you all cooking steaks next weekend. I'm going to vicariously enjoy each and every one.

PJ must have known that every now and then I list my Major Meat Moments Over the Years for my family who just roll their lesser carnivore eyes.

One of my best MMMs was a huge cowboy ribeye in a cruise ship restaurant not long after we were first married. The thing filled the whole dinnerplate. I didn't eat anything else for that dinner except the olives in my martinis. My husband says he is still astounded that I ate that whole steak.

Are you going to be the judge of the photos? If so, I’m in. I don’t trust Panhead John - he deducts points for things like poor presentation, inadequate overall appearance and pungent taste: things totally unrelated to BBQ! What does pungent even mean?

[Panhead John]

tbob4 😂

[Allon]

"I can't believe she ate the whole thing..."

Old commercial on tv

[Panhead John]

Jerod Broussard mentioned earlier he’s gonna do a “surf and turf” next weekend. Some shrimp to cook, along with his steak. Well, I ain’t about to let that sumbitch show me up! …..Just got back from Costco. Here’s what I’ve got planned.

[smokenoob]

Wow, did your mom increase your allowance?

[texastweeter]

I could do prime fillet and catfish, lol

[Allon]

It's got legs...
It knows how to use them...
It's got legs...

[mrteddyprincess]

My arm has been twisted far enough. I'll cook the steak.

Brian

[Panhead John]

Alright then damnit! I’ll untwist your arm now. 😂

[wrgilb]

I'll be traveling, but I'll be there in thoughts and prayers for fzxdoc.

[RichieB]

Great idea, I'm all in.

[Panhead John]

Thanks Richie, knew we could count on you!

[bbqLuv]

To be outdone by ya' all, I pulled two strip steaks from the freezer.
"Have Steak will Traeger"

[Panhead John]

You’ve already pulled em from the freezer? You know it’s a week away right? 🤔

[bbqLuv]

They're for tonight, my Bad.
See I'm done before I start.

[Steve B]

Well. I just picked up myself a 38oz bone in ribeye for tonight. So I’m good right now.
BUT!!!! That’s now.
Next weekend Sounds like a great time to cook a steak. Especially if it’s for a good cause like honoring fzxdoc And I will make the perfect side as well. You guessed it. A steak. 🙌🙌

Hope your feeling well Kathryn.

[Panhead John]

Eating steak a week apart? Hell yeah.

[Bogy]

I can't think of a better side for a steak, than a steak! Like a fillet, as a side to a Cowboy Ribeye.

[Steve B]

Bogy Exactly what I have in mind.

[Texas Larry]

Oh, yeah! Wonderful idea. Somewhat handicapped on my moving around due to recent foot surgery, but I’m in.

[Panhead John]

Hope you get to feeling better soon Larry! Tell Renee I said hello.

[jfmorris]

If I get a chance to cook a steak next weekend, I'll be sure to dedicate it to Kathryn and her recovery. It will have to be one to the ribeyes already in the freezer, since they are bought and paid for... it will have to be Friday or Sunday, as I have a bonfire and potluck on Saturday. Actually, I am thinking I could take a steak and cook it on a stick over the bonfire!

[DaveD]

That would be epic!

[jfmorris]

Steve B and DaveD yeah it would be epic, except the bonfire and potluck is out in the countryside at a friend's 350 acre farm. I can't very well show up with steak just for myself... Well, I *COULD*, but shouldn't...

[DaveD]

Yeah, you're probably right Jim... but that image of "steak on a stake" is compelling!

[mrichie1229]

I'm with Brian aka mrteddyprincess. You don't have to twist my arm too hard for me to cook steak Panhead John.

[Panhead John]

Ok Richie, cause I was fixin to head to your house and twist your arm next! 🥸

[Allon]

Just a taste of what you'll be up against:




Tender and juicy. Little apple and cherry smoke ring...
Pink end to end.

Touchdown!

[DavidNorcross]

Put me in coach!

Damn, I am running out of wardrobe!

[Panhead John]

Thanks David! How about cooking it in your Snoopy pajamas?

[DavidNorcross]

Sorry John….I don’t wear pajamas

[Bogy]

I'm going to have to defrost some of my stockpile of tube steak.

[texastweeter]

I have a full prime tenderloin from creekstone that needs to be warmed up. Not my favorite, but is my wifes

[Panhead John]

Not your favorite? Need my address?

[texastweeter]

Panhead John Look into my eyes boy...this is God's country, we eat a Man's steak around here; Ribeyes with just salt and pepper. Just as God intended... lol

[Panhead John]

😂 Dude, we have got to meet one day before I die.
