Been reading this cookbook by Adam Perry Lang. He has what I would call an ACTIVE method of grilling - not inconsistent with reverse sear, but more moving the meat around. He also calls for a 10-30 minute resting of the meat before searing. Using his recommended brush made of fresh thyme, scallion, rosemary, etc. to brush on baste. Thought I'd give it a try with a 4.5 pound standing rib roast (cut into two steaks).

Great looking cook. I have done his tri-tip (which i wasn't the biggest fan of) and his fleur de sel short ribs (which are awesome) what did you think about his flavor profiles for the standing rib roast?

What did you like and didn't like about it?
 
When I have time, I like to do APL recipes - a fair amount of work, but great results!

Looks like you got it good with the delicious grub and the awesome help! :thumb:
 
Thanks, guys! I couldn't (wouldn't) do it without my helpers. One's a good cook, and the other just loves to watch, listen to music and enjoy some fresh air!

aawa, I used the basic baste - butter, evo, garlic, soy, worcestershire, onion, and a little ketchup & mustard. It worked perfectly, as it didn't overwhelm the beef taste. I think it's a fun way to cook, but you do have to ride the grill for an hour or so. Lots of turning and basting, which gave the meat an even carmelization. APL uses an extra rack raised off the grill by bricks. I didn't do that this time - just got it up to 100* on the empty side of the grill and occasionally held it over the hot fire.

I'd do it again.
 
Looks delicious Uncle JJ! Your helpers are real cuties too. :-D
 
I need to check his books out. I saw him cook at the Royal and he did two very thick ribeyes like what you have there. It was very interesting how he cooked them and intriguing also.
