Painted Hills Ribeye with Chanterelle Demi-Sauce, Fingerling Mash, and More!
That is a sexy piece of meat. I purchased it at Rain Shadow Meats (click) which is in the Melrose Market on Capitol Hill in Seattle. I have a friend that works there and he has been telling me to check it out for some time so I did! I’ll have a follow up post to it next week because I intend to go there again this weekend…..it’s an amazing place. This is my first attempt at sous vide […]

Carne Asada (revisited)
(Click each picture to make it larger) I’ve done something like this recipe before (CLICK, I made note of the thinner cut and grilling at the time) but it makes a huge difference when the meat is cut correctly. Paper thin flank steak is my favorite way to cook Carne Asada. Of course I do a few variations from a traditional Carne Asada so don’t bother telling me about it. I made a lime chipotle chimichurri to top it and […]
Steak Rub
Camera B strikes again! Ugh. I’ve done a few steak rubs but I don’t think it compares to this one. I’m not going to give you the exact measurements because I like to keep secrets. Ingredients Garlic Powder Dried Onion Paprika Urfa Biber (and that’s when Eric went all “WTF?!?!” on you) Italian Sea Salt Yellow mustard seed, ground Adobo (my own blend) Eric

IxaRiveraCooks: Churrasco with a Light Garden Salad
(Click each picture to make it larger) Ixa is my mom and she cooked something for this blog. She cooked this last night and sent me over the pictures and a sort of recipe. Here’s the thing, she doesn’t cook from recipes either so that’s something we share. I created this blog to start storing these recipes but there is a little room for a little extra this or that. My mom’s philosphy on cooking is just to cook to […]

Cheese Steak Puff
(Click each picture to make it larger) I asked everyone if they would like to see a recipe/technique/review on this blog and Jenn from BreadPlusButter.blogspot.com (THE BLOG OF THE MONTH), suggested I bake something. I don’t like to bake, it’s not my thing. I’ve never felt comfortable baking because I’ve never really had to do it. My idea of baking is running to the store and just picking up a cheesecake or not showing up to your party……..just kidding. I […]

K.I.S.S. Steak
(Click each picture to make it larger) Keep It Simple Stupid! When I have great ingredients it’s easy to try and turn them into complex creations. When it comes to steak there really isn’t much I should do to try and change the flavor. I keep it simple, stupid (you’re not stupid, sorry) Ingredients -2 1lb. top sirloin steaks (I used Stokesberry Farm grass finished steaks) Rub Sel De Mer Pink Peppercorn Rub the steaks with […]

Tarragon Top Sirloin with a Poivron Rouge Vinaigrette
(Click each picture to make it larger) Most people don’t really consider a top sirloin to be a big deal in the steak world. What if I told you it tastes much better than any filet mignon or t-bone steak you’ll ever have when it’s a hormone-free, grass fed, steak grown in Olympia, WA. There have been a few great things that have come from Olympia, WA……This steak and me! I’m so lucky I don’t have confidence problems. Thanks […]

Aromatic Veal Chuck Steak
(Click each picture to make it larger) Taking a cheap cut of meat and making it sound extravagant. All I need to do is give it a French name and people would consider it a hit! I’m going to make a stew with this cut next time, I just wanted to dress it up a little bit. Ingredients: 2 veal chuck steaks 4 pepper steak rub No exact recipe for this one yet, it’s a work in progress 1 fennel […]
