Smoked Cowboy Rib-eye
Yippee Ki yay we are having some good-old, melt-in-your-mouth Texas cowboy rib-eye steaks on the smoker today. This is a huge piece of meat and needs to be salted and smoked on indirect heat. We used hickory and it was wonderful. Once it was done we brushed some garlic-herb butter on top and yes, it was as good as it looked!

Ingredients

- 1 Tablespoons Salt
- 3- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 1 -2 Cloves Garlic
- 2 Sprigs Fresh Rosemary
- 2 Sprigs Fresh Parsley
Instructions
- Salt the steak and let it sit out for an hour before smoking.
- Set your smoker to an indirect heat but only cover half or your grill with the heat reflector. (If you do not have this option be prepared to grill it on another grill).

- Melt the butter garlic and herbs and brush the steak and grill it on either side at a high heat to produce a slight char on the outside.
Notes
A good quality cut from a local butcher if possible is always the best choice for this cut.

I was hesitant only because I saw this and wasn’t sure if it was worth it. The recipe was nice and it was just fun to have that big rib.
