Best Steak Ever

Our local grocery is a Publix and we've always found their selections excellent. Fran came home with a couple of fillets today and we did something a little different. Remember when some restaurants used to serve steak on toast? We do. Publix has a brand new bread, Jalapeno Cheddar Demi Loaf. Eaten alone, the pepper bite is slightly above subtle but grows and grows in the aftertaste to the point where your mouth gets nice and warm. I grilled the meat as always, six minutes a side, while Fran toasted a couple slices of the bread. The steak was placed on the bread and was topped off with another Publix product, lemon herb garlic butter finishing sauce - tossed the label - it was something like that. It melted onto the steak, drizzled down, and soaked into the bread.

This was the best steak either one of us has ever eaten, anywhere, any price. My taste buds are still dancing.... :weber:

Mashed sweet tater? Maybe

Peeps - I have been doing twice baked sweet potatos and loving them!

Bake a couple sweet potatoes, Lay them on the counter open the tops, scoop out the flesh, put them in a bowl, Dump in half a brick of cream cheese, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1/4 tsp ginger, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Whip it with the mixer, refill the potato skins and warm back up.

Should this be a guilty pleasure? I did leave out butter and brown sugar. Tryn to be good.

I mention these here, because, I always make them with steak now.

I do that with acorn squash and sweets on the holidays. I don't twice back just mash them with spices, brown sugar and butter (hub and DD's won't eat without the sweet and butter). Sometimes I use pumpkin pie spice.

Bought some more of that sauce today. Publix calls them Finishing Butter. Lemon Herb is what was used on the fillet.

The fillet looks so tiny on the plate but it's about 2" thick. 5 1/2 minutes a side at 500F is just about right. The buttery herb finishing sauce is to die for and any of you within range of a Publix super market should give it a whirl.

The steak is gorgeous! I thought the toast was to keep the steak on the plate in restaurants. Now I know.
