Sometimes ya just get the urge to chew on a big piece a beef….a good steak! Well we did that the other nite. I even BBQ’d between thunderstorms and believe you me that is a trick I have a stainless steel cooker. But that steak was just tempting me.
Nice juicy rib eye…………..but I thought not the usual sauce as in A-1 or HP, lets try something different. I was re-organizing my recipes the other day and going thru some magazines for keeper recipes. Just needed to lighten the load a bit. Well I came across this keeper from January Bon Appetit.
To make Wasabi-Garlic Cream, combine in saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until reduced to 1 cup, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes:
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 large garlic cloves, pressed
Whisk in and cook 1 minute:
1 - 3 tablespoons prepared wasabi I get the wasabi in a tube at the Asian market
Remove sauce from heat.
Season to taste with salt if necessary
Completed the meal with oven-roasted veggies, peppers, zucchini, onion and some fingerling potatoes. But no oven was turned on for this meal, I did it all on the grill. And the skies opened up and poured upon turning off the grill…………perfect timing wouldn’t ya say.
Sauce is quite versatile - so use your imagination.
What’s your favorite cut of beef to grill and do you sauce it or eat it plain like the husband?

YUM! That looks so bad in such a good way! ;-) Reminds me of watching Paula Dean pouring cheese sauce over her meatloaf!
Horrible but good!!!
It's true sometimes you just crave a nice piece of steak. I don't cook it though. I'm not too great with meat. I never know what cut to buy or which cooking method to use. I have been thinking about grilling a steak though. Maybe I'll try a rib-eye.
Listen, ya gotta live a bit between the salads so rib-eye is the way to go.
Good old rib eye is my very favorite steak, tender and always grills up nicely, doesn't need much, maybe a bit of salt and cracked pepper. I usually eat mine plain just like that, you can have the A-1, no thanks. However that cream sauce made me look twice! Ahh, "steak, it's what's for dinner," says that sexy cowboy on the commercial! Best steak I ever had was in Colorado, tasted like meat should, juicy and flavorful, not lean and chewy. Go for the choice or the prime, forget select. Fire up the grill!
I with you on the best steak I have ever had but it was a rib eye in Arizona at a Mexican restaurant.
Moon is right sometimes some of us just gotta......LOL
Doodles, About a week ago you were saying you needed some recipes for figs. I found a fig muffin recipe which sounded good. Here's the link ;)
