Holiday Beef Tenderloin

Oh, how I love the holidays!

But if you’re like me, you stress about family and friends coming to your house and making a big meal (or mess – whatever the case may be).

I think two turkey holidays in a row may be a bit much. That’s why this time around a beef tenderloin roast is in order.

It’s elegant. It’s tender. And it makes the whole house smell divine.

THAT says “holiday meal” to me.

Here’s a fantastic recipe with a full menu suggestion, including sides and dessert. You can’t go wrong with this meal.

And here is where I get my beef tenderloin roasts so I don’t have to worry that the beef might not be up to par. I KNOW it is.

There are all sorts of roasts to choose from – from Chateaubriand to prerubbed beauties. Choose what you like! It’ll all be good.

And let me know how your holiday meal turns out – minus the scene Aunt Edna made in the living room.

Steaks On Your Phone

 

So THIS is where I get all my meat – the Kansas City Steak Company. My beloved ribeyes always taste better when they’re from KC Steaks.

And I told you a while ago about their cool free iPhone app that has a steak timer and cooking instructions to help you make a perfect steak.

NOW, they have a new mobile website that makes it so, so simple to order steaks right from your phone.

Did you hear that? You can order steaks from your phone! What kind of world are we living in? I feel like we should all be wearing aluminum foil suits and driving around in flying cars like in “The Jetsons.” This stuff is so cool!

Plus, that iPhone app now has this new mobile site incorporated right into it. I love it when people make things easier for me, don’t you? It doesn’t happen very often.

So, if you’re on a smart phone, go to this website right now! Every steak imaginable is there. Even Kobe beef. Then, download the free app and all the tools you need for a dinner party that’s da bomb will be right at your fingertips!

Technology certainly does rock!
