Nothing smoking today...I already smoked the 13 lb. brisket I'm taking to a family gathering tomorrow.  Today I have a couple of fat ribeyes that I'm gonna grill on the Weber Kettle for dinner.

Actually my folks wanted steaks for the 4th. I've never done a reverse sear before but that's what I'm going to do. My folks all like their steaks done a little more than MR but not med. I was going to do them on my kettle at about 225-250* to an it of 125* and then sear them to about 135* and rest for about 15 minutes.

Does anyone disagree with this and what should I do different? Thanks in advance. Joe

I thought MR stopped at 145-150 range medium is at 155-160.  Depends on the thickness sometimes.  Not sure about the reverse sear part. 
 
This weekend I am going to be smoking a 38 pound whole alligator. I have done some research and found one place telling me 17hrs at 230. Another said 5 hrs at 250. Those r both pretty different times. Anyone ever smoked a gator before??? Open to any ideas!!!

My steaks, (2 rib eyes and 4 porterhouse) were great. Good color, good texture and awesome flavor. The only thing that could be better is that they were a little done. They were only 1-1/2" thick and once they were at 125*, they shot through the sear to about 137* very quickly.

But, I promise that this will not be the last time for me to do a reverse sear. Joe
 
I had a couple bags of rib tips in the freezer so yesterday, I made Peach Bourbon Glazed Rib Tips Sandwich (for me) and I shared my rib tips with my neighbors.  I didn't feel like burning up on my patio cooking on the grill.  So I oven roasted my rib tips. they were fork tender and delish - just melted in my mouth!  Here's what I shared with my neighbors.


Here's my Peach Bourbon Glazed Rib Tips Sandwich



I hope everyone had a safe and Happy 4th of July!
