Let's talk more about these chocolate drinks. I think I need one.

 

[Katrina71]

I've been craving cucumbers and tomatoes. Did some research, probably because I drastically reduced my carbs cold turkey.

@sfin52 try this:

1. buy quality steak from the butcher, not the shelf
2. Take a fork and poke tiny holes all over both sides of the steak
3. Season it well (now step 2 makes sense!)
4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
4. Sear all sides of the steak in a pan, don’t cook, just sear. Use lots of butter
5. Put the steak in an oven safe dish
6. (Optional) wrap bacon around the steak, precooked about 50% in the microwave
6.5 (optional) cover in quality feta or blue cheese
7. Pour the butter from your pan over everything
8. Cook in oven to desired temp, this will require finesse and experience! If you put bacon and/or cheese it takes longer. Filets take longer than ribeyes, etc. for reference, I cook a filet to rare/medium rare in 14 minutes with no add-ons to insulate it, takes closer to 20 minutes with a cheese topping for a thick piece of meat.

9. sell your grill and buy more corals!

Natural carbs from veggies and fruits.

I had the grill on just a few days ago, can't wait for BBQ season again, pretty much every meal in the summer I cook on the BBQ. Last year we started making our own burgers, man oh man did I gain a few pounds.. our old favorite is homemade pasta, we have a kitchenaid mixer we use exclusively for it with all the lovely attachments. Made every one aside from the ravioli one, maybe this summer.

Welcome to the herd of Katrinarinos! Sounds like you will fit in nicely here. Now if you read her old thread start to finish, I will really be impressed. LOL!

I’ll have you know I got to page 201, but my progress stalled when life interrupted. By the time I got back, the miracle tank thread started. Had to make a judgement call..miracle won. It had absolutely nothing to do with reading 1800+ pages vs 66

dang straight! A good steak needs LOVE, you can’t just slap it on the grill and beat your chest ;Hilarious

 

[Dolelo96]

..and now I’m behind again. You people are quick!!!

You had me right up until that blasphemous last step and now I have to reconsider our continued friendship.

Love pasta. Love love love pasta!

The wife and I found this oil and vinegar shop and now we drizzle flavored oil and herbs over our pasta with a side of salad with one of the numerous vinaigrettes you can make..... mmmmmm #%&$£%$ delicious!

Ever had a salad with roasted peppers, cucumber, feta cheese and a grapefruit vinaigrette dressing??? ;Drool;Drool;Drool

 

[living_tribunal]

Where is @Why-Me ? Let’s get the whole gang in here and talk about grub
