Today I made our traditional christmas ribeyes. But this year they were extra special!
They were cooked on the MAK!

Burning wine soaked oak the MAK was set to 450º


I started off by putting in some twice baked potatoes. These were made with onion, cheddar cheese, salt and pepper.

While the potatoes were heating up to a golden brown I got the asparagus ready to go in. I drizzled them with some Garlic EVOO I just got from BP and some ground sea salt.
Big Poppa that Gradassi is good stuff! We all loved it!

It's time for some meat!

The steaks were reverse seared using grill grates. Everyone wanted theirs cooked differently from med rare to burnt. Burnt? :confused: It's christmas so I even burnt one for the MIL ;) I put hers on 15 minutes before the others. Mine was sprinkled with double secret steak rub and two others got a light sprinkle of garlic seasoning. One was even naked and plain. The wifes family have never had smoked ribeyes before tonight..they're huge fans now!

All I can say is..OH MY GOODNESS!
The MAK does such a great job cooking everything I throw at it! The steaks were moist and tender. Even the one I had to over cook was very well done but not dried out.
The twice baked had the crispy outside we all love so much and with a a little salted butter it was delicious. The Asparagus came out nice and tender with a very light garlic taste. YUM!

Well you gotta have holiday dessert right?? :p

Tonight I made smoked angel food cake and strawberry kabobs. There is something about smoked/grilled angel food cake that I just can't get enough of. It's soooo good!
I cooked these on the grill grates as well to get that char on them.
