I just can't get into Ribeye, although I've never ordered one from a legit steakhouse, or had a higher-grade version.
Just too much fat to work around.

Local meat market here has 8oz bacon wrapped filets for $5.99 each through the end of May. Think I will pick several of those up but prefer ribeye.
No, no. This is a butcher shop/meat market. Straight off the cow. Had one a couple of weeks ago.Filet of what? Not tenderloin. Please tell me you aren't talking about those prepackaged things with the preinserted thermometer... I couldn't even stomach those as a poor college kid. Essentially beef jerky pucks there was so much salt.
I will tell you a very underrated meat (just like the Flat iron steak), is country style ribs. I know they are not ribs (cut from the loin by the shoulder), but like ribeye, it has the fat content that adds so much flavor. Smoked some of those (wife had to have) as I was smoking three racks of spare ribs. Sons a bitches turned out very good. Tender and full of flavor. The thickness of them, with very little bone really lets you add flavor with rub and a marinade. Smoked for several hours with apple wood, will do again.
I'm not the only one that eats most of the ribeye, correct? I'll discard large chunks of fat but the marbling and small pieces are my favorite. Our dinner crew is split, half eats it and half tosses it.
Smoking anything this weekend?
I'm just doing a basic pulled pork and a pepper stout beef.
Absolutely. If the ribeye is done right then those little bits of fat almost taste like meat flavored butter.
