What's for dinner tonight ?

Looks absolutely delicious. You should read ‘closer to the ground’ if you’re considering life on a gulf island. It may motivate your decision. At very least, it’s a good book.
I’ll check that out, thanks! I’m sure it will be a lot more compelling of a read than the dry computer science tomes I’ve been slogging through lately.

Crab cake recipe:

2 cups crab meat, cooked
1 cup prawn meat, raw and minced
1 cup bread crumbs
1 onion finely diced
handful of chopped italian parsley
1/4 tsp wasabi
1 tbsp dijon
2 eggs
zest of 1/4 of a lemon
juice of half a lemon
A little or a lot of your favourite hot sauce
cracked black pepper
salt to taste (I don’t add any but you might want to)

Mix everything except the breadcrumbs and egg into a bowl. Once well mixed, slowly incorporate the bread crumbs. Next, thoroughly mix in the eggs. Bring some neutral (grapeseed/avacado/canola) oil up to temp in a pan at medium heat. Form cakes roughly 1” thick and 3” in diameter. Cook 5-8 minutes on one side until brown. Flip and reduce heat to medium low and cook for another 5-8 minutes, depending on thickness. Remove from pan and let rest for a couple minutes. Serve with tartar sauce, or a white wine, butter, lemon, shallot sauce if you’re feelin’ fancy.
 
Just made the long pilgrimage home from Idaho.
While down there, my most excellent Sister In Law presented me with half a tenderloin from the very fat spike elk she shot this past fall.
Couldn't wait to get home and chow down on it!

So last night was BarBeed Elk Tenderloin, Twice Baked Taters, mix of air fried green beans & red pepper, all washed down with a very good Merlot!

Fit for a King & Queen!

So are you just running it all full heat for 6-7 minutes a side or are you finishing with the lid closed or some other method?
 
Full heat for ~ 5 - 6 minutes a side.
Never shut the lid!

Cheers
I did some 1-1/4" ribeyes while we were in Hawaii and did 5 minutes per side with the steaks completely engulfed in flames. Turned out perfectly medium-medium rare. I'm surprised your thicker steaks go that quick. Maybe you prefer them more on the rare side.

I really wish I could post a video...
