Heart Attack on a Plate!

Last night my husband wanted ribeye steaks for dinner. He wanted to use up the steaks we ordered from Omaha Steaks, before we go back to our much better steaks from our butcher. He grilled (that’s his job) and I did the rest. We had baked potatoes with sour cream and chives from my garden. I also made roasted brussel sprouts with garlic, cayenne pepper, a bit of sea salt, and fresh ground pepper. I finished them off with Parmesan cheese and honey. It was definitely a heart attack on a plate but sooooo worth every bite! Unfortunately, I could only finish half. Do you barbecue at your house?

@DianneN We are going to BBQ on the fourth of July weekend. My three grandchildren that live in Great Britain will not be here in July because of the virus and they loved BBQ at our house. So my wanting to BBQ was gone. They are going to be a lot bigger when hopefully I see them next summer.

@jstory07 Oh, I'm so sorry. I know how you feel, but you know they are safer staying in GB now because of that nasty virus.

Even if I take out the Non-veg options out of that, it sounds delicious. Your health and walk routine would hopefully keep you away from heart troubles.

@DianneN Yes and I too am trying to follow the moderation thing. As an example, I did had a proper dinner yesterday but ate half of what I normally have. Sometimes I skip or have less food at night, if I do not feel like having it, instead of overloading myself.

I'll take such a tasty steak dinner like that any day ! We don't bbq a lot (but Hubby wants to get a whole new bbq set up). But we did bbq a couple weekends ago. We did the steaks and corn - with potato salad . . . and then did smores with the kids for dessert!

@DianneN Ohhh, is the Green Egg that avocado looking one? I don't even know which would be good . . . I'll let Hubby decide on it since we'd make him the grill master . But I'd love a bbq for a gift !

Your last BBQ sounds delicious! I love corn and potato salad. You are giving me more dinner ideas as bespeak! Our kids keep buying us grills for Father's Day gifts. I want the Green Egg, but have to look into it further.

I grill meats on the gas stove, sometimes I barbecue outside on a charcoal grill, that is the best. I love rib-eye steaks, even if my favorite is the T-bone, but it's a BIG steak.

@DianneN You are right that grilling on the stove is a big mess, I like to grill outside on charcoal when I can, the taste of the meat is so good. This Sunday I go to buy beef at our favorite butcher shop.

@LadyDuck After all our yapping about grilling, I just ran downstairs to our freezer and whipped out baby back pork ribs. You solved my dinner dilemma for tonight! Are you getting T-bone?

I love charcoal grills the most, but we gave ours to my brother. We only use our gas BBQ grill these days. I do have a 6 burner gas range top in my kitchen, but grilling meat makes too much of a mess on it. I grill veggies on it on rainy days.

I imagine it would be impossible to BBQ at a hostel. We aren't allowed to BBQ at our condo in Florida. It's against the rules.

It was very fattening, but good. No, I don't. I've had much better steaks elsewhere - thicker, juicier, and more tender.

i think there is little to no fat content in that dish, am i right? you and your husband grilled and roasted, so maybe the fats of the meat drained down. i believe your food is not leading to having heart attack. it is so nutritious. for us here, maybe i should have carbohydrates in the form of rice. i cannot eat that kind of food.

We shouldn't be eating that food too often. It's loaded with bad fat - the meat, the butter, and the sour cream on the baked potatoes. Everything in moderation is okay in my book, but this dinner was a potential killer, albeit delicious.

We used to when we only lived in CT. Our condo in FL bans it, but we use an electric grill. It's just not the same.

@DocAndersen So do we, now that we gave one away to a neighbor. lol We keep looking for that perfect electric grill, but no luck. We only use our gas grill now. We had it hooked up to a gas line recently installed for the gas fireplace. We gave our Weber to my brother, but the Hibachi is somewhere in the basement.
