Started out with two small Rib Eyes (they need to be small as you will see later), some U10 Scallops, and seasonings – Course garlic salt, Homemade Garlic Powder, Alpine Pepper mix, Onion Powder, Ground Porcini mushroom, and Carne Crosta.

Here they are with salt, Pepper, and Garlic powder (we like garlic)

Onion powder and Porcini mushroom added and let it soak in awhile

While we wait – We Hydrate!

The Porcini and other seasonings are soaking in nicely

Prepare the Performer and a chimney with lump and maple wood chunks

Get the scallops on the side – just salt, Pepper, and Olive oil

Time to add the Carne Crosta

Rib Eyes on the hot grill with wood chunks flaming – add Cone Crosta to the top side

Add the chimney with hot coals and wood chunks to engulf the meat with heat and flames from both sides

This will not take long to cook

The meat is glowing red and the Carne Crosta is searing nicely

Remove the Chimney and check for doneness

Send the meat to rest and put the Scallops to the flames

The Carne Crosta did char up with the high heat

Cut it open to reveal the rare – Medium Rare Steak

Plated on fine China with Scallops and cucumber / Onion Salad

This was the first-time using Carne Crosta on top of the Porcini Mushroom and it did bring another layer of flavor. The dual heat trick was also a first and worked well – Kind of a novelty but fun.

Ended up with a great meal.

Thanks for Lookin.
 
That is one heck of a way to flame grill, worked out well. Nice job on quite a meal.

And the view in the distance from your bbq area ain't bad.
 
Really cool technique!

Two fires > one fire!

Reminds me of an infiernillo, a live fire Argentine-style way to cook, but smaller and more practical.
