Hello GT. We are loving the thick cuts of NYS steaks from Costco last few months. Heavy 12-24 hour salt in fridge makes for a tender juicy steak. Glad you liked. Have a Goodern

Hello Thomas. That sounds like a romantic dinner on the Chesapeake Bay for sure. Those Tomahawk Pork Chops should be delish. You will like the spin grate in operation and because it is Stainless Steel. Have a great week.

What's up brother. Thanks for watching m. That steak was awesome. Have a great week.

Hello Matthew. I'm glad to hear you and your bride are still going strong and best friends. The way it is supposed to be. Those wagyu beef ribs had to be great. We are really liking the thick cut NYS steaks from Costco. Nice and tender. I'm glad to hear you have done the mods on the wsm. I love how they make the wsm into a super versatile cooker. Can't beat it for the investment.

Phil N Florence - thanks! We’re retired Army (34 years) so our marriage was strengthened by the challenges! That said, I wonder if you might consider doing a head to head comparison between your Weber grill and WSM with grill set up. I’m curious to see if there are any benefits to having a dedicated kettle. My hunch is that the WSM grill set up is close enough for a backyard enthusiasts like Grace and I. Thanks again for your channel. Much appreciated.

@@matthewwysocki5019 Thanks for the background info, and thanks for your service in the Army. Challenges can yield strength in so many ways. Kettle & WSM Grill comparison. Well, when I started down this mod road on the wsm, I did many grilling type cooks on it which I videoed, using a kettle grill setup. Charcoal on the new middle grate 5 inches below the meat grate. Some using the slow n sear, offset cook, direct cook, as well as the vortex accessory. The wsm performed well. It will do the job as a stand alone for smoking and grilling. There is a slight difference in the temps in the cooker due to the cook chamber and how much cu in. of heated space you are dealing with. In spite of that, it will still get the job done. Since grilling is usually cooking directly over charcoal e.g. burgers, dogs, steaks, chicken, that is no problem with using the grilling mod on the wsm. It works just like a kettle. I give high ratings to the porcelain coated grill grate using for the charcoal grate. The heat from lit charcoal will not damage it at all. So, to answer your request, I've really already done that in back videos. Maybe not side by side kettle vs wsm, but the same type cooks on each one. But, it would make a good video, so I'll keep that in mind going forward. Thanks-Phil

Thanks Phil for the detailed explanation. Much appreciated. Many blessings for all things good!

That was some tender meat. The NYS steaks from Costco are very good steaks. 12-24 hrs in heavy salt really does the trick.

I'm glad to hear that you and the wife are still in love and best friends. The way it is supposed to be. Most people think I'm kidding when I said never fuss and fight, but me and Jif don't. Real love overrides that pettiness. That's what apologizing and forgiveness is for. So easy and so fast. After 30 & 40 yrs, you should know when to just be quiet and stop digging. Even toss out the shovel. LOL Thanks Craig

Phil N Florence Thanks Phil! You are correct, it is easy. We only are on our 18th year, but I still feel pretty lucky!

Hello Steve. yea steak is something everyone likes a certain doneness. Funny, for many years I wanted it well done, then later on began liking medium for a long time. When we began this channel 3 yrs ago, the more I cooked steak plus watching others I began using the themometer and finally began trying it medium rare. I found out if you have quality meat, and have a great sear on top, a medium reare can be delicious. You get the best of both worlds. I had never had a prime cut of meat until now either, and found out it does matter. I've learned to like lots of things I didn't grow up eating. Thanks for watching and the comments.

Yeah Baby!!

Haha, yea restaurants have a hard time matching a good backyard pitmaster. LOL Have a great week Joe

haha, yea that bellows air came from the deep. Works though, just don't singe your beard and eyebrows. Thanks for watching John

Yes we are still in love and best friends after all these years. Those NYS steaks from Costco are really good. We are liking them better than the ribeyes from SAMS lately. The 12-24 hr heavy salt brine really helps tender them up. That homemade bellows works good. Just watch the beard and eyebrows. lol Have a great week Charley

Thanks Tommy. These steaks were terrific. The 12 hr salt brine helps tender them up.
