Blades & Beef

Sous vide bone in ribeye seared in a carbon steel pan and edges done with a blowtorch. Prosciutto wrapped asparagus and mushroom risotto. Bradford chef and steak knives are awesome!

Beautiful! I’ll bet those slice like nobody’s business with that AEB-L you took to 63RC combined with those sweet flat grinds

Thanks. Yeah they will I've made us a set in the past too. Helps to start with relatively thin stock too. These are ground from .070.
 
Cooked the rest of that inch and a half thick ribeye, this time cooked it with a commercial dry rub instead of the homemade coffee rub (my homemade coffee rub was MUCH better), cut it with a homemade clip point in D2 and washed it down with our favorite Cab (Handcraft) which is the only California wine my wife and I will drink. (much less sulfites that other California wines)

Who says you can't polish D2? :D

Didn’t know what else to do with a rump roast so I tossed it on the smoker for 7 hours.

Meat and potatoes finished with some awesome Jacobsen’s whiskey sea salt flakes.

Went to a friends house for dinner a few weeks back and he had made a rump roast. I was fearing the worst (I don't have many molars left) but you could cut that thing with a fork, and the flavour was phenomenal. Turns out he used a "sous vide" then finished cooking it in the oven. I really must pick one of those things up.
 
Couple ribeyes of our own grassfed beef:

Neighbors came over with a couple of New Yorks (also our grassfed beef)
