I’ve been seeing several people here are cooking their steaks cowboy style. Searing right on the coals. So I said to myself “Self. You gotta try this”
Well a 2-1/2” thick frenched ribeye dry brined for 24hrs. Seasoned with garlic powder and paprika.
Cooked indirect to an internal temp of 120*. Blew off the gray ash and into the fire.
Oh and I also made some smoked Mac n Cheese.
This turned out to be one of the best steaks I’ve ever made. Just incredible.

Looks awesome. I have only done this (also called Caveman style) with thinner cuts like skirt steak or flank. Those both turn out great. The inside cooks perfectly before the outside burns. Never tried it with a thicker cut.

Go indirect and then sear. The pics speak for themselves. It was that good.
