Anyone ever use Tasmanian pepper berry on their steaks?

i agree it looks good there. That was after five min rest but I served a few minutes later and all the pink left.

Looks good to me.

I'd be worried about the pepper burning with that much heat. Maybe put it on before the last flip, or after searing?

That, or in a board sauce. I'd also try it in one of my standby pork rubs.

I’ve noticed it posts my photos out of order sometimes. Sorry.

The peppercorns once crushed up give off a floral taste with a slight kick at the end. Interesting taste but I either didn’t use enough or the seat burned it off as I suspected it might and someone above mentioned. I think it’d be really good when used in a rub in place of regular pepper. I have to do a bit more experimenting.
On the cook side, I tried my first reverse sear. While I got a great sear the meat was over cooked after resting for my liking. I moved it from indirect to direct at 115 so I’m not sure where I went wrong. Next time I’ll move it over at 105.

That looks like something the deer leave behind.....

They look like Tasmanian Devil berries. Probably go good with peas. 🙄 sorry.

Never heard of it until now.

Please show us the pepper in raw for and how you used it. Chucnky, fine etc..

That's what intrigued me to want to try them. I was just thinking it may be better in a rub than a sear. Think I'll give it a try tonight though

Never heard of them, so I looked them up. Here's a description:

'Tasmania's native ‘pepper’ is also sometimes referred to as Mountain Pepper. These black berries are a succulent, hot berry with a crunchy seed cluster at their center. When eaten alone, the berries have a sweet taste at the beginning, followed by short-lasting intense heat. We think they are an interesting alternative to conventional black pepper although you should use a light hand—they are 10 times as hot!!'

As HawkerXP said, let us know how it turns out.
