We had rib-eyes (no bone) and they were fantastic. I just need to adjust my charcoal grate so I can use less coal and still get close to the meat. Cooking time was about 5-6 minutes. Wife brought home some Uncle Chris seasoning too. We'll try that next time. I'm sure I must have used this sometime in the last 70 years

As for salt, when I was regularly going to Brazil on business, I couldn't wait to eat at a local Churascaria (Steak House). One time, they had a BBQ in my honor on the hotel patio, and that's where I learned that the only seasoning they use on the beef was a heavy coat of rock salt. Don't know why I never tried that at home

Did you achieve that steak house flavor that you spoke of in the beginning post?

PUCKER wrote:Saltgrass Steakhouse 7-Spice Steak Season...it's the best seasoning I've ever had on a steak! Seriously. And it's CHEAP...at least it used to be, haven't priced it in a few years because I stocked up awhile back. For comparison's sake, for $7 you would get a HUGE container of the Salgrass seasoning compared to an itty-bitty contain of "premium" steak seasoning for double the money....

Is that the house specialty at La Brea Steakhouse?

Syntyr wrote:Most steak places uses Salt and Pepper. You can vary that quite a bit by changing up the kinds of salt and pepper you use. You can get all kinds of fancy with different kinds of salt with smoke and other flavorings in it. I have some mesquite smoke salt that just rocks.

For every day seasoning of "meat" I use a product called Chicago Steak Seasoning from Penzey's spices. REALLY good for steaks, burgers, heck I even use it in guacamole but that's me...

As a Texan, you should know that there is no period after the "Dr" in Dr Pepper.

The period is for the end of the sentence, not for the Dr.
