Smoked Rib-eye over Mustard Sauce, Loaded Smashed Potatoes, and Cucumber Salad

Tonight I wanted to make a well rounded meal, while also taking advantage of my traeger as well as new meat slicer that I picked up at Bass Pro Shops.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

For the Rib-eye:

* Step 2

Get the Rib-eye to room temp, trim off any excess fat you wish to remove, and pat dry with paper towel. Combine Salt, Pepper and and dry rub seasoning you may have chosen and liberally (as in a lot) rub all over the meat on all sides. Don’t be afraid to load it up as it will create a beautiful crust.

* Step 3

Preheat smoker or traeger to 220°. Place rib-eye in and let it be for about 3hrs. Check temp and let it smoke longer (15min intervals) if not at 140° internal temp.
