Don’t you just love the sound of that?

SUMMER STEAKS.

Two things I adore in this life. Together.

Magic.

This recipe creates a fresh, citrusy marinade that is absolutely perfect for summer. It calls for sirloin steak, but any cut you love best will work.

Try it this weekend and embrace all that is summer – and steak!

Remember when you used to make an ashtray out of popsicle sticks for dear old Dad for Father’s Day?

Not such a great idea.

Well, you can still make him something homemade – but this time, he’ll REALLY enjoy it.

Try making him a homemade steak rub (along with a really good cut of meat).

Here’s a fantabulous recipe that will make Dad very, very happy this Sunday. It’s got garlic powder, red chili flakes and lots of other good stuff to make a tasty and memorable steak.

Think of the smiles and tears and accolades for years to come! This will be a Father’s Day to remember. And you won’t have to wait in line at Denny’s.

Seriously, THIS homemade gift will be a Father’s Day home run!

So, I just found out that June (yes, THIS month) is National Beef Steak Month!

How did I miss this? It just snuck up on me!

So, in honor of this very special month (and, well, because I just love a good steak recipe) here’s a step-by-step guide to a scrumptious summer salad featuring this month’s star:  STEAK!

It’s got grilled herbed steak mixed with tender couscous.

That word always makes me laugh. Couscous.

So get out there and celebrate this weekend! Your beef steak will be very honored – and your appetite will be very, very pleased.
