Had some friends over last night and cooked up reverse seared prime beef filets. Rested the steaks in a beef tallow and garlic bath prior to searing. Steaks were exquisite, but the real hit was the grilled corn. Grilled up the cobs on the gasser, painted them with Duke’s mayo, hit them with a dusting of Lane’s Scorpion rub and a healthy sprinkling of queso fresco and topped them off with chives. My wife made fantastic stuffed potatoes and a fresh spinach and strawberry salad. Served with a really nice Decoy Cabernet Sauvignon. No pictures though. As usual the liquid refreshments had me scrambling to make sure everything was cooked properly and hit the table all at the same time. DFW weather has taken a really nice turn - low humidity, high in the 80s, low in the 60s. Great night for cooking outside!
I’m so over spending hundreds of dollars in a restaurant on a really nice meal. Total cost of our meal above was less than $100 for all 4 people, most of which was spent on the prime beef and wine.
