Merry Christmas all!

I’m cooking two Chateaubriand’s tonight (about 2.5lbs each) and cannot decide if I should cook them on the middle grate or the high grate. Was thinking about roasting them 325 degrees.

What do y’all think!?

Depends on what you’re after. If you want wall to wall medium rare with a nice brown outer crust, then I’d cook on the upper rack at 250 or so until they read 120 internal, then crank it, remove the top rack, and sear as close to coals as possible (or, better yet, on a baking steel) a minute or two each side.

Normstar sounds like your having a party! Hope your cook turns out great. Did you take any pictures?

Med-rare, a mountain of whipped potatoes, some nice greens and call me when it's ready.

I had to Google this thought it was an exotic bird lol. Reverse sear
