    Just did a pair of USDA Prime boneless ribeyes in the Joe Jr. (Kick Ash basket and FOGO charcoal) EXACTLY the way you did it in this video, taking them off the sear plate at 114 degrees before the sear (because they were not wagyu and because you said 114 degrees). Perfect! Thanks so much.

    I have been tempted to tiptoe into the Kamado world, but didn’t want to go all in due to the cost…and my relatively small deck…which already has a natural gas grill, a Blackstone, and a great cooler that my son built for me. The Joe Jr. is a perfect way to do that without spending the cost of a full size kamado grill. Your videos have helped me decide on the Joe Jr. Thank you!

    Hey I really like your channel. Been watching a while! That said, I believe the dome thermometer does you no good when you are about to sear a piece of meat.
    You said it yourself; the cast iron is directly above a super hot blazing fire. It will have absorbed more than the dome would have, but not only that; you had your cast iron searing rack on the lower setting. The proximity of the meat to the fire is a real issue because you don’t have the opportunity to build a crust before you burn the meat.
    The result is a charred exterior due to a) flare ups (especially with Wagyu) and b) the proximity to the super hot blazing fire. May I ask why you didn’t opt for the higher setting to increase the distance? I learned this the hard way myself by doing exactly what you did just now with a tomahawk.
    It all depends on your preference, I personally don’t prefer the charred blackness of that type of sear. The Argentinians say that when searing the flames should never touch the meat due its adverse effects on the flavor and I tend to agree with them. These are not criticisms by the way, at best preference differences.
    If I may suggest: try using a big joe and reverse searing on a high temp but with the furthest possible distance from the actual flames themselves. Using a charcoal basket divider can be of use here. Check out Ballistic BBQ here on youtube and how he sears on a Sunterra Asado type grill. It looks heavenly and is also doable on a kamado with the right techniques.
    Again the interior of the steak looked great and I’m sure I would have enjoyed it, so please don’t take my comments as “hate” or anything like that. Thanks for the content!

      yes i used to use cast iron all the time when i started... but i had a hard time keeping the seasoning with high heat burning it off, some food acidity can peel it and weather encouraging rust but its better to use it all the time and keep adding seasoning (i.e. cook burgers and its good as new) than once in a blue moon where those issues don't take care of themselves

Plus if I had the money to spend I think I’d think I’d put it towards a spontaneous WAGYU ribeye that I bumped into in the grocery store, lmao. But I’m still curious, Is there any cook that you would insist should be done with cast iron?

    @emmgeevideo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have always viewed carryover differently than you explained. Once you’ve taken the meat off the high heat, that heat source is no longer relevant. What is the remaining heat source? It is the outside of the meat. You’re measuring INTERNAL temperature, which is ~114 degrees. What is the SURFACE temperature? I’ve never measured it but it would be fairly close to the heat of the chamber at the point at which you remove the meat. Some of the surface temperature will dissipate into the air but some will continue to heat the interior of the meat.

    Excellent video, and it looks fabulous! Love Wagyu! Have you used and/or compared the aftermarket grill grates on a KJ vs the sear plate? I bought the grill grates for my Big Joe III and it comes with a disclaimer not to exceed 650 deg dome temp on ceramic grill or risk damage. Upgrading from a Weber kettle, I never even considered too high of temp for the grill grates. With the Big Joe III I like being able to set divide and conquer for indirect on left, and then coals and lowest rack on the right for the reverse sear. However, I am a little timid in letting the temp shoot too high because of the temp limitation concern.

    Great video James, never tried Wagyu, much less real Wagyu (I doubt anywhere within a hundred miles of me even sells the fake stuff, much less the real stuff e.g. Kobe). These days, I prefer to get an all-over Maillard reaction instead of grill marks. I use a cold grate (so the meat is seared by the fire but not the grate), a cast iron griddle / skillet, one of those sous vide torches would probably work, etc, to get that flavor all over instead of just on grill marks.
    I remember you talking about the Diamond kosher salt in an older video, I want to say I remember you saying something about you liked it for dry brining because it didn't flavor the meat or something, is that correct?

      @SmokingDadBBQ  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes exactly... diamond kosher is my dry brine salt, it helps with tenderness and unlocking/enhancing the natural flavours of the protein without adding a distinct salt flavour. The smoked salt is larger / more course and I use in soups and chilli etc. where you want some smoke / salt flavour as well as days like this where I didn't have time to salt brine and I am trying to make up for some lost time. The final is the Fleur De Sel finishing salt which helps things really pop on the tongue when you eat it. I never want to over salt as you can't go back... if you're just a touch under you can get the balance right with finishing salts

    • @SmokingDadBBQ

      I would do the soapstone in the classic as its more versatile for many great cooks

    you mentioned two words that right now I can't stand lol. Dry Brine. I literally just did an experiment video on dry brining and thought it was the most over rated thing ever. I lightly covered top and bottom sides in salt, put in on a cooling tray, in the fridge overnight, and cooked the next day. That steak was so salty it ruined in. I almost always buy dry aged beef... maybe it's just what I'm used to, but don't you find dry brined beef salty? Do you rinse it?

    • @SmokingDadBBQ
      @SmokingDadBBQ  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I didn’t catch in your video but I suspect you used table salt and not diamond kosher crystal salt (mild / less salty salt) for the dry brine. my first experience was awful and it took years to try again... we ruined some dry aged NY strip steaks for New Year’s Eve. they were so salty a deer wouldn’t even want them... but we used the wrong salt. I was skeptics to try again but trust me when I say, the salt matters. also if you dry brine, don’t add more salt unless you feel it needs some finishing salt after tasting. it looked like you added your pepper and Pinot noir salt to both ahead of the cook which would further increase the salt content ... the rubs I make have no salt because I often dry brine ahead of time

      Smoking Dad BBQ well good to know I’m not alone! 😁 I can’t remember if I used Pink Salt or Morton’s Kosher. I’m pretty sure I used Morton’s. Trying to use the last of it. I switched to Diamond because it’s way better on home made pasta. Usually use it on steak now as well.
      Make a good point about salting again before the cook. Looks like I need to give it another shot. Thanks for the tips!!

      Smoking Dad BBQ LOL pretty positive I didn’t do that. I don’t know why it popped in my head. I haven’t used that on steak in years but since it popped in my head I second guessed myself. I think it was thinking about grinding up the salt when I put it on the grill. Needed my morning coffee to get the brain kick started hah

    Great job as well. I appreciate you calling out the times... when I started, I always was worried when the smoking part of reverse sear only took 15-20 mins -- I kept thinking it was low and slow and that seemed fast. Calling out the durations is good for people to realize elapsed time. Good on ya. Now, the result... sweet baby Yoda! Mouthwatering.... never had wagu but will need to find and try -- I feel like it might hit the pocketbook hard from things I've seen. You only need one kidney to live right?

    Hey James: I bought a KoJotisserie. It worked for less than ten hours and then the cheap motor burned out, could smell the smoke. Tried several ways to contact K-jo customer service. Email does not work, no phone number to call, so the warranty is useless. For what they charge for accessories, they can easily afford to hire some folks in India or China or even the USA to answer calls about product problems. Before you buy a K-Jo or any accessory, make sure you contact them for warranty information. If you cannot reach them, then you might want to shop elsewhere!

    • @SmokingDadBBQ

      Hey Ron, sorry to hear you've had a frustrating experience. Looks like you wrote the same comment in several videos so I will just answer this one.
      The KJ site has a support section which shows you how to get in contact for a warranty claim. There is not a warranty email or phone, its a web forum located here - www.kamadojoe.com/pages/contact
      Alternatively you can work through an authorized local retailer if thats where you purchased
