Steak. You Know Dad Wants It.

It’s Father’s Day on Sunday. Got good plans for your old man?

Well, you can’t go wrong cooking him a steak dinner. I’m serious. He’ll love it.

The Houston Chronicle had an article recently giving some great grilling advice from the experts. Check it out — and then treat Dad to something special.

Happy Father’s Day!

Onion Soup Steakburger

I finally tried out that recipe using Campbell’s French Onion soup on my steakburgers — and it was unbelievable!

Check out that steakburger just oozing with flavor! The cheese is a nice addition, too.

My husband dipped his burger in the remaining sauce like a French dip and reports that it was scrumptious.

I ate mine without a bun and dipped it in the sauce. Mwah! It was wonderful.

For an extra kick, try this ground beef with Sweet Vidalia Onion mixed in. Oh, the smells! The flavors!

Extra points if you eat this steakburger outside on your balcony or patio and just breathe in the atmosphere.

Cartoon Steak

So, it’s summer break here at our house. The kids are home. I work from home. And there are lots of cartoons on TV.

Mind you, not all day, but isn’t that what you’re supposed to do in the summer?

And I’ve discovered that even those clever cartoon-makers are steak lovers. This “Phineas and Ferb” episode features the bad guy in town stealing all the steaks and locking them up far, far away. The storage container of steaks blows up and steaks rain down. Yay!

WARNING:  If you are afraid of raining steaks, DO NOT watch this episode — especially at the end!
