    I agree cast iron brown butter garlic and thyme,no such thing as too much basting.Never thought about tying it up,have to try that.I-still prefer pre sear as to reverse sear,have had better luck with moisture.Good looking steak though I prefer mine medium.🔥👍🍻

    Hey mate I bought Steak Shooter and applied it quite liberally to my ribs. Is it just me or is it quite salty ? I'll definitely be using half next time. Also.. do you not let your wood burn clean first ? I find my ribs are quite rancid if I put them in on with the wood like in this video 🤔 EDIT: Oh damn, are you the creator of the Steak Shooter range ? My local butcher has heaps of your products.. well done.

    Thanks mate, it's just been the rules for ages. I'm not actually sure of the reasoning behind it. I guess as they built the doneness chart with medium being a mid type level. Easy to score either side

    Awesome video man! What temp are you smoking at? Looked like 275. I usually run 225 but assuming the carry over temp increase might be a bit more at 275.
