Well, without my KK, travelling in Toscany We where invited to friends house where we purchased la bistecca alla florentina and a picanha. Slow indirect cook on a ciment carbon bbq as they call it here, smoking was a challenge but we finally used mesquite wood and it turned our really well! Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk

Made the mistake of not trying the bistecca when I was in Florence many years ago. Saw you did it right with the big salt crystals at the end! I've made them here, but it would have been special to have tried it there. However, I just bought my first picanha yesterday. Had to order it from my butcher. Have out of town guests next weekend. That puppy will get tossed onto the grill Friday night! Thinking Brazil/Argentine style (churrasco) on the rotisserie with chimichurri sauce. Nice looking bottle of vino. A 10 yr old Antinori Chianti, had to be outstanding!

Great looking meal must have been lots of fun!

Fantastic looking meal. Looks like a fun time on a unusual grill setup.

Yes I found the carafe where small as well but the wine had 4 hours to decant and it turned out it was perfect! As for the wine being low, wine carafe are always better looking when empty and belly full lol Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk

Medium rare just the way I like it. Great job but,,,those Karaffes look a little low.

No offense meant by my comments. I completely understand the passion each of us have for different things.

Nicely done indeed great entry Aussie
