    It's a Honolulu Fish Company weekend.  Ordered 3 pounds of tuna (ultra) and 2 pounds of salmon.  Having some people over for the first time in a year basically. Looking forward to it very much.
    Hell yeah! I did the same thing. Did 2lbs of Ultra and 2lbs of Opah. Mom's in town for first time in year, so looking forward to delivery tomorrow. Enjoy brotha!
    I was looking at this again yesterday.
    I'm going to do the week after next when we have a shore house.  Excited already.  Look forward to pictures, guys!

    Yummmmm, pasta and lamb dishes.  They look amazing.

    Tonight I made salmon Wellington (aka en cruté), saffron rice with sautéed garlic and onions, and steamed asparagus.  For dessert I made puff pastries stuffed with braised apples in a brown sugar, bourbon, and roasted pecan sauce.  Served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a homemade butterscotch syrup drizzle.






    I think I just made a sticky in my pants looking at that dessert.

    First time cooking Sirloin in a cast iron skillet.  The family is very happy with the way it was cooked.

    Just the stove this time, four minutes a side and let it rest for about ten minutes.  I like the idea of using the oven.  So if I use the oven then it would probably be something like a 90 second sear and then what?

    I thought the taste of the steak was way better than cooking it on the grill; I m sure the melted butter helped lol.

    There are many ways to try to see what you like best 
    I like putting the skillet into the oven at start and set for 550.  
    Once it hits 550, put the skillet on the highest flame you have and hit the steaks at 30 seconds a side.
    When you flip, put back on a hot spot, not the same spot.
    Put back into 550 and turn it halfway through.
    Timing all depends on how thick the steaks are

    I don't go beyond 3 mins a side unless it is huge.  

    Take out, transfer to a plate, pop butter on them and put tent of foil over and let rest for ten

    Like I said, many ways to use that glorious device and I'm sure many here have different takes on it

    Yours looked awesome - just fun to try different ways.
    For doneness you will want to check until you find the time/temp you like, as always.

    Also. -. You need some real potholders or a heavy towel/folded to handle the iron after it is on there at 550.  Of you have to walk far you will pay for using shitty ones.  (Like the seasonal decorations my wife puts out.)

    Baby backs. Smoked 4.5 hours with Cherry wood.
    Masters Sunday treat.
    Finished them for the last half hour with a bourbon BBQ sauce.

    Wowzer.  I'm doing two racks today but in the oven.  They don't look special but they do taste very good.  Those look better, no doubt!!!
    What are you having with?
    Just finished the corn bread and will make a slaw and asparagus as well

    Slaw, corn on cob, baked beans (new recipe was a bit too sweet), and sweet potato.

    That corn bread looks the business.

    Awesome.
    Our corn comes in weeks from now but I cannot wait.  Some of the best corn I've ever had grows a mile away.
