Again, bulk for like 5. Its a cheap cut but very tender if you do the final cut across. and probably the best beef flavor out of all of them. It got popular and stores like to charge a premium now.

I've not done one yet, saw the cut at the store but like 20 bucks a lb
Beef is expensive here , rib eye is getting on to $40/kg , fillet $50, where as a whole butterflied and seasoned chicken cost me $10. Pork is 1/2 the price of beef , and the Blue cod sells for close to $70/kg ..........yeah , it hurts to sit down after a lap round the supermarket .
I usually buy the rib eye as a whole steak from wholesaler and cut it myself .....mostly into 2" steaks , Quick sizzle on the bbq to sear both sides and the slow cook untill 55deg C inside .
My cooking skills are not in your league Joe but Im more "meat and potatoes " than gourmet . I like posh food but after spending 80 bucks at a restaurant for dinner Im going thru the drive thru for a Wopper to satisfy my hunger . Gourmet food is like candy to me ....nice enough but you couldnt live on it .

I eat more venison than beef … venison is low in freezer, but the season will be starting soon …

Remember it's the internet, right camera angle and a couple herbs on top I can make a turd look good.


I do a lot of meat and potatoes stuff but as I age and the internet is full of ideas, I'm having fun learning and being semi retired give me the time.

The char siu pizza is a keeper.

No marinara, replaced with hoisin. Then red pepper flakes, cheese, very finely diced bacon, diced ham, char sui slices. 10 min cook. Did two of them. Second one got pineapple and red onion. So essentially this was a take on a Hawaiian using Chinese style pork and Korean bean paste....

Might do tomato next time.

There's a place by me that does a brown sugar glazed buffalo prosciutto with bacon and fresh mozzarella in a similar manner. Very tasty. Looks awesome.

Man o man found a chuck roast at 4.99 lb and I love it when I can find one with this kind of marbling. The drops go into the make burger bag in the freezer and these went to my belly. This is my favorite steak at any price.

This morning breakfast. Fridge dump. Bacon, broccoli, cheddar, tomatoes, cilantro and sour cream on toasted rye of course with tomato from the garden. Should have added thyme.

So when wife does travel, and said travel is to India, her departing and welcome home meal is always steak, for obvious reasons.


This was 2" thick. Dry brine two days. Reverse seared over coals. Leftovers were for French dip so she gets good beefy meals her last two days. $18 a fning lb....
