Bone in NY Strip Oscar…

[Al Czervik]

While rooting around in our neighborhood grocery store recently, I stumbled across a 22oz bone in loin steak calling my name which ended up following me home. Got it seasoned up this morning and tucked away in the fridge for tonight’s dinner.



Once the day’s chores were done, I fired up half a load of recycled lump in the Oval.



After about 30 minutes, the dome was temping around 300 and embers were starting to drop into the basement. I put the steak on indirect with a chunk of red oak and let it smoke until IT was about 120.



After pulling the strip, wrapping in foil for a bit and stoking the coals, it went back on for the flippity floppity treatment for about another 5 minutes.



After about a ten minute rest, plated it up with asparagus, Dungeness crab and Béarnaise sauce.







When all the dust had settled, I’d ended up mowing down about half the plate and can honestly say I wasn’t mad at it, although at the same time did feel “comfortably” numb.

Thanks fer lookin…

Damn that looks all around good. I recently had supper at Dockside over at the resort. Same deal except fer that greenery ya have garnished yers with. I'm a stickler fer rare, medium rare is acceptable, anything over...ya get a burger. Pulled that one on my sister in law's temperamental bestie. The outcome was glorious, but I'm the very devil fer doing so.

Hard to not be comforted by that. It's the full meal deal.

Thanks, gang!!! Appreciate the kind words. Forgot to mention the strip was another yellow tag special too. As to the pictures, all the credit goes to the iPhone and daylight bulbs for the inside shots.

Just a heavy dose of Q-Salt… love that stuff!

I’ve eaten there a couple times… Last time was an anniversary lunch with my bride a few years back. I don’t remember what I had but know she was thrilled. I’m on the rare side of MR, but with you on anything over. Was able to swing my SIL away from well done soon after they got hitched, still thanks me to this day. He might make the cut…

I love steaks but for me they gotta be fresh outta the pan or off the grill . Reheating em just ends up with them over cooked
