Fall Fun With Steak

We welcomed the brisk fall air this weekend with a sizzle . . .

. . . and it turned into this . . .

Pure greatness.

We grilled up some thin-cut ribeyes and this beauty above is a thick Kansas City strip steak. Oh, the joy.

The smells of the grill, the steaks and the fall air were absolutely divine.

Welcome, autumn. You can stop by my house any time.

T-Bone Steak Sings…

I leave you on this gorgeous Friday with this…

It’s Boom Jay and T-Bone Steak singing everyone’s favorite – “It’s Crazy.”

And you thought T-Bones were just for eating.

I’m pretty sure whenever they show T-Bone in this video, there’s a glowing grill graphic behind his head. That’s some classic stuff there.

One word of warning:  If you watch this, you will be singing it for the rest of the day.

But go ahead and do it anyway. You might pick up some great moves to use in ‘da club this weekend. Or ‘da living room. Whichever. Point is, PEOPLE WILL BE IMPRESSED.

Have a fabulous, steaky weekend!

Sommelier’s Thoughts on Steak Wines

I’ve traditionally heard that a big, beefy steak requires a hearty red wine.

Truth is, I never follow that advice because I have, shall we say, unusual taste when it comes to wine.

This NY sommelier even pairs some whites with certain steaks at his restaurant. Seriously, he’s my new best friend – and we’ve never even met.

Turns out, each cut of steak requires a different wine pairing. I didn’t know that.

Read on to find out more tips on matching that perfect vino with your steak tonight!
