Beefy Thanksgiving

Can you believe how close we are to Thanksgiving?

Are you a “Turkey All the Way” family or is there something a little less traditional on your menu?

We like a gorgeous prime rib roast. It’s so visually beautiful and it makes people feel special. Really good meat does that.

Of course, there are the purists in our family who think they cannot get through a Thanksgiving Day without the annual dose of tryptophan. So, a turkey is also served.

But for us adventurous ones, prime rib goes a long way.

And then….have you ever had a leftover prime rib roast sandwich on Black Friday while overdosing on football?

Priceless.

Spice it up a little this Thanksgiving! There’s something to be thankful for. 🙂

A Steak Men Love

Our friends at AllRecipes.com claim that men LOVE this steak. How do we prove that?

Well, if you’re a man, try it. If you’re a woman, find a man and ask him to try it.

It’ll be fun either way, right?

Here’s what they say:

“If you are looking for a special steak for your sweetie, look no further. This takes less than thirty minutes from start to finish; less if you choose to broil instead of BBQ. Flavorful and easy, this steak is tough to beat. I serve this with brown gravy and serve sourdough bread or rolls. If you’re really hungry, crumble some additional bacon and add a baked potato. Add candles and a bottle of full bodied red wine (like a cabernet from the Alexander Valley) for a romantic evening.”

Click here for all the details on this scrumptious ribeye with bell peppers, mushrooms and bleu cheese.

Hey, I’m not a man, but I think I’ll love this, too. What does that mean?

I think it just means I’m hungry.

Let me know what you think, men!

Sweet Tomato Beef

Simply beautiful.

Sweet. Tangy. Smooth. Crunchy. It’s all in there.

This beef in a sweet tomato sauce with sugar snap peas is a wonderful, quick meal for those nights when you’re short on time – but long on hunger.

And I don’t know about you, but I seem to crave beefy meals even more in the cold months. Hearty, satisfying meals are always on my winter menu.

Check out the full recipe here and don’t forget to pair this with the steamed jasmine rice Jackie suggests.

Magnifique!
