The Rub Co. Flat Iron Steak

Well, the first sample got lost by the USPS but Ryan was real quick to mail out another when it wasn't even his fault, and he also threw in a sample of his BBQ rub. Thanks Ryan!

Started out with marinating a flat iron, 1.6 lbs, in Paul Newman's Own Italian Dressing for a couple days (Didn't mean to go this long but the heat index was just too much Monday). Brought it out and rubbed it generously with the Original blend. Initial taste of this rub gave me the impression of an excellent mix of savory with just the right amount of heat. While the steak was getting to room temp I marinated some baby bellas and a couple largish squash quartered lengthwise. Redhot made a wonderful blue cheese sauce for the steak. She got a recipe off the net but of course modded it quite a bit. Lit a chimney of K Comp with a chunk of hickory and commensed to grilling.












Onto the Smokey Joe

Sliced



Plated



Sauced




Reeeeeeealy sauced



Bottom line? This is an excellent rub for beef and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it and also sample some other of Ryan's rubs. In fact...






















I did just that.:becky::thumb::thumb: Thanks Ryan! Good Stuff Indeed!



Thanks for looking!

I'm getting the same thing now. No problem when I posted.

Drat. Looks like there's a Photobucket problem. Can't log in there - get an error message, and none of my recent posts will load the pics either. Hopefully this get's fixed.

OK! Photobucket's fixed.

Is this like a double boiler?

I've never seen this technique before, but judging from the pics, it sure seems to work.
