• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Has any one done steak on a PBC? Mine is my only charcoal cooker and I would like to figure out how to get that taste with a steak.
 
Mine are New York Strips. Did you put the lid on or leave it off. I followed the link to your post and The Tomahawks look super. I have two thick one and one thin one ( my wife likes hers we'll done) my son and I are more civilized. How long until you got that medium rare?
I haven't worked up the courage to go caveman yet.
 
Thanks!

For the thicker cut steaks I hang them, close the lid and pull when IT hits at the doneness level I desire. For thinner cut steaks I place in on the grate with so lid on and sometimes lid off. Lid on sort of replicates a reverse sear approach and lid off is like direct sear. Either way they come out lovely!
 
For your thin cuts use a grate directly over the charcoal basket, out in the open. Don't even bother using the drum, it'll be in the way.
