Hmmmm can you tell who's is who's. Cook pics tomorrow

Can anyone tell which steak is my wife's???

I just got home from the butcher with a nice little prime filet mignon 8oz. For me. Yeah right. And a 30oz bone in ribeye also prime. Both are about 2" thick. Now dry brining in the fridge for tomorrow's nights cook.
I plan on a sous vide bath @ 129* for 2hrs for the ribeye and 1-1/2hrs for the filet.
The filet will than get butterflied and seared. That's how she likes it. And of course the ribeye will also get a nice sear.
Cook pics will come tomorrow night.

I would so rather roll with a Select ribeye than a Prime filet....unless I got three strips of bacon with it.

[Steve B]

I'm not sure about select but definitely choice.
For me a filet is "ok" but the texture and flavor of a ribeye. There is NO comparison.
But as you said bacon wrap that sucker and we might be in business.

+1 on what Jerod said.

[EdF]

You weren't too coy about tipping us the answer. But I knew as soon as the question was raised!

[Steve B]

I guess I don't have a poker face. Huh.

[fuzzydaddy]

Both look beautiful. Any chance she'll have "a bite or 2" of yours?

[Steve B]

Probably not. In fact I will almost definitely finish hers.

This looks great to me! Dang they both look perfect. I am the ribeye guy on the grill. I ALWAYS reserve the filet for the lava rock. I serve it raw to the table on a 500 degree searing lava rock, you eat and cook each bite. It changed the way I think about filet! Can't wait for the pics brother!

Second that request for pics. I would love more info on that.

[Steve B]

Thanks brother.
I really love how you serve your filet. Would really enjoy sitting down with you and experiencing that.
I actually love eating steak tartare. It's one of my guilty pleasures. Funny it's a way to keep the wife away. It disgusts her.

[ecowper]

I recently had filet on a searing rock ... it's pretty amazing. Gonna have to do it at home, now

[kmhfive]

No doubt my wife's choice matches your wife's. Even to the point of doneness.

[lonnie mac]

I don't want to jack your great thread brotha! I cant wait to see some pics of this cook! But here is a sneak peak. I only break out the lava rocks once a year, usually for Christmas for me and the Moonbeam. Sometimes out of the blue.

[kmhfive]

That looks amazing! Where do you get the portable heat source?

[Steve B]

No worries man. Looks like you're bout to one hell of a nice meal. Beautiful brother
