What did everyone cook today?
-
My Sunday dinner. So, the wife and I have made a deal where once a week one of us will cook something more involved than our normal dinners. This Sunday I chose Steak Au Poivre which is a steak dish with peppercorns and cream sauce.
- Coated the steaks with salt (Used strip though I think Fillet is the normal choice)
- In a pestle coarsely grind some peppercorns, lay them out on a plate and then drag the steak through it pressing down to make sure the pepper stays with it.
- Over high heat in a pan add 1/4 stick of butter and a tablespoon of olive oil. Then add the steaks and let them cook 4 minutes a side.
- Remove the steaks and tent them under tin foil and set aside
- Pour off the excess oil but not the peppercorns or any left over crust, add some cognac (I used whiskey, didn’t burn as well) and set on fire. Continue to shake the pan until the flames are out and then add heavy cream
- Whisk them together until the sauce e starts to thicken, add the steaks for another minute or so and baste the sauce over them and then serve!
Jonathon that looks awesome! I bet it tasted great as well!

Cornish Hens spit in halves at our home this weekend. Split the hens and seasoned with a good light olive oil and Walton’s Steak & Roast Seasoning, ( that stuff is good on everything) and a touch of sumac and garlic f
or a nice lemony finish. Smoked at 250* for 2 hours and put in pan to juice up. Finished off on the grates for 15 minutes @350*. We will vac pac and freeze then reheat on a steam rack for a quick smoked bird dinner during the week.!
Bob Stehlik Cornish game hens are a good choice. Love those little guys! I like your idea of halving them and vac sealing for later!

Wild rabbit browned and then slow cooked in pellet grillRON PARRISH - Looks great. Can’t say as I have ever had rabbit.

cdavis - I think this would be great in a jalapeño wrapped up in more bacon.

Jonathon that looks delicious. Im gonna have to give that a try. I’ve found that whiskey will light better when it’s above the 110 proof range. The kind that warms your inerds. Hard to believe the EC barrel proof was a slow lighter. I would have had to sip a little while cooking.

zbigjeff Well duh, that’s because I can’t feel my face by the time dinner is done cooking…

Reverse seared a couple Creekstone Farms pichanas. Seasoned the with Butcher BBQ Steak and Brisket rub and fresh ground pepper. Cooked on the PK Original. Also made creamed cucumbers, and chimichurri to go along with it.
Tex_77 Another great looking meal.

HerbcoFood Maybe that’s why they sometimes call it “slap your momma good”. BTW: That feeling does happen if it’s a LONG cook period. My bud’s wife steals the keys right about then.

Decided to take it easy and use the light duty equipment today: weber grill and my new toy (a 12" smoker tube for cold smoking) to cold smoke a salmon filet. I’m a dolt because I took the pic of the smoker tube/wood pellets and the smoked salmon portion on the plate along with some brie cheese and crackers. Forgot to take pics of the product on the grill for 2 hours. DUH!!! I vacuum packed the other half of the filet and stuck it in the freezer for future uses. The new toy did a good job putting on some smoke to the salmon. Tomorrow, I’m planning on cold smoking 3 different cheeses.

zbigjeff nice. I have a similar tube and use it for the low temp smoke for my snack sticks. It’s great!

I made 11 pints and 4 quarts of Marinara out of 26 lbs of my garden tomatoes. So the wife comes in and asks “whats for dinner?” and I may have sarcastically said “something with Marinara”. After getting all the cans done, I whipped up some Fettuccine for my Marinara and grilled shrimp on the carbon steel skillet and topped it with fresh grated parm.
