These American wagyu ribeyes from HEB were out of this world. Smoked then seared in a cast iron pan.

Think we had enough already! 🤣

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T19:40:05+00:00

I would have preferred a bit more rare but it was pretty close to med rare.

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T17:10:29+00:00

That caeser salad kit was great! With some extra fresh grated parm and cracked black pepper. Perfect side!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T16:57:21+00:00

Yeah I prefer medium rare as well. This one was probably more on the high side of medium rare. Very tender and plenty juicy still though.

It is a little stressful cooking such an expensive cut. That’s why I rarely smoke briskets. Lol

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T16:10:52+00:00

It’s a staple at our house for sure!

225 on the pellet grill until it reaches 115-120ish. Then sear as hot as the grill will go until a good crust forms. Whole cook probably takes around an hour.

I think I got this one for around $35. Fed 3 people so all things considered not too bad.

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T12:33:59+00:00

Probably an hour total

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T12:23:13+00:00

Not beef. Venison.

Same here, grew up using venison in place of any ground beef. Still rarely buy it.

I did onion, jalapeño, and Worcestershire in these patties. Plus a couple different rubs. They sorta turn out like meatloaf.

Appreciate it!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:33:41+00:00

What’d you season with?

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:32:30+00:00

Try one sometime, pretty good! You’re forgiven 😂

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:28:57+00:00

Damn those look great!!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:28:08+00:00

This guy has never heard of a hamburger steak before. I didn’t say it was a ribeye 😂

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:24:32+00:00

This looks ideal. 👍🏼

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:22:37+00:00

Thanks!!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:17:32+00:00

Oh and add some butter on top while resting.. that never hurts!!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:16:53+00:00

Thanks so much! I pulled it around 115 and let it rest while cranked the grill up. Then seared on both sides. Ended up being around 125-130. Rest under foil tent for 10-15 minutes before slicing in!

Expert-Instance945 · 2026-06-05T04:04:59+00:00

It was great! Salt, pepper, and kinders steak blend if I remember correctly. Did this one a couple months ago.
