Tonight's menu: Porterhouse!

[ptrthgr8]

Tonight's dinner will be 3.18 pounds of Porterhouse goodness and baked Russet potatoes. Seasonings for the steak includes kosher salt, a pepper blend, and a light application of a mesquite rub.

Steaks properly seasoned and ready to go, along with the lineup of the evening's beverages of choice:

Steaks will be charcoal and wood fired - mesquite and hickory, as usual. Baked potatoes will have butter, kosher salt, and black pepper.

I've not decided which cigar to have after dinner (too many to choose from, definitely a good problem to have) though I'm leaning towards a Montecristo Grand Edmundo. Or maybe a PSP2. Or maybe both.

Cheers,

now that sounds great! I'm working on a great beef stew myself though with the 7 week old kid I dont think I'll have much time for 2 cigars post meal. Enjoy!

Some more photos of this evening's meatscape!

Porterhouse on the grill. Snowy outside, but the warmth and smokey goodness from the grill put a smile on my face:

Plated and ready to eat!

Dinner was outstanding. Decided first after dinner smoke will be a Monte GE courtesy Sven and company.

I'm hoping this GE is better than the one I smoked last week. Got the three box deal from the Czar and the first one I smoked was a complete **** - uneven burn, tunneled, kept going out. It happens from time to time with these handmade smokes, but I hope it was an exception.

What the...? You can't even write "t.u.r.d" without the forum software censoring you? Wow. How uptight! LOL

How did you enjoy the Bottle of Pio Greg? My favorite Barolo!

Lovely looking steak cooked perfectly. It is satiafying grilling in all weather

[ptrthgr8]

Didn't actually get around to cracking the Pio open. After a few beers while prepping dinner I ended up switching to rum during the mean - sorta skipped the wine entirely - and then moved to the scotch after dinner with the cigar. I'm actually pretty disappointed in those Monte GE so far... I'm now 0 for 2 on these suckers. Yet another dog of a cigar with unever burn and tunneling. I think I may just toss all three boxes into the back of the cabinet and forget about them for several years. Maybe that will make them worth smoking.

Cheers,
