So if ever I am convicted of a capital offense and it results in a penalty of death, I want this post to be my instruction to the warden for my last meal request. I am sure that whatever offense I may commit in the future that results in the need to remove me from polite society will not leave me in the best position to bargain for a meal such as described below but alas, we have decided that the condemned are worthy of a last meal request, and this is mine. So be it.
I'm still using my DigiQ on the BGE, but now that I have a Traeger I have begun to itch for an updated version. Something that I can control and monitor via an app, remotely - like I can on the Traeger. I need to update this link to something that may be what I'm shopping for as a replacement but for now, I'm too lazy and it's hot outside.
Research:
Ingredients:
- A prime grade tomahawk steak.
- Salt
- Pepper
- Humility and regret (Did you hear that warden?)
Execution:
Just add salt and pepper to taste - be generous because it is a large cut. You really can't overdo it.
Use the reverse sear technique to get the center to about 125 with the BGE closed down enough to keep the egg temperature at around 350 - use the time to start some potatoes. Once the steak is at temp, pull it off.
Run the egg up to 600 degrees and put a hard sear on the beast.
Let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
Verdict:
Don't really want to address a verdict here.
Sensitive subject.
Also - Pretty proud that I made it all the way to the end without a single Elizabeth Warren joke.
