First of the weekend

[TX1911]

The missus has been busting her hump at work, so I sent her on a girls weekend out to Lake Travis. So, just me and the kiddos this weekend. Which means 90% of the cooking will be outside.

Figured I'd also let the kids set the menus for the weekend dinners.

Tonight, my oldest (5) requested steak, corn and salad.



So, it was steak! Ran by the store and grabbed a Choice T-bone (I've become a really big fan at $4.99/lb)



Seasoned with SPG



And reverse seared - I highly doubt I'll ever cook a steak another way.



Resting - total cook time was about 12 minutes



Started slicing and was feeling the pressure....



And the salad and corn....As an aside, my wife got a recipe for restaurant style ranch dressing and it's become all we eat on salads anymore.



Thanks for looking!

I wasn't just looking I was drooling - - - you sure knew how to get our attention with that little cutie in the Roy Orbison Shades - - - -

Thanks y'all. I'll have some more tomorrow. The boy (3) requested smoked chicken.

Counselor, the interior color of the T in that last pic is Numero Uno IMHO

The eyes on your pooch tells it all

Great looking Tbone and grilled to perfection

The dog is cracking me up. But the plate is making me drool.

(Adorable kid, too...)

It's exactly what is on the hidden valley buttermilk ranch packet. With one major exception. First of all, full on buttermilk is a must. But what the restaurants use is heavy mayonnaise. The kind with double the eggs. We can only find it in bulk here. So when we get it, we eat it A LOT!

If you're a ranch dressing eater, give it a shot. It's worth it.

I'm going to have to investigate this. Always looking at lifting my game.
