Cowboy Ribeye with Tobacco Onions and a Roasted Garlic Bordelaise

Ingredients

6 Bone-in Ribeye Steaks, 1-1 1/4 pounds each

1/3 cup No-Stick Grilling Marinade for Beef (page xxx)

2 Tbl Kosher salt

2 tsp Steak Seasoning

1 Tbl Black Pepper, freshly ground

1 Recipe Roasted Garlic Bordelaise (page xxx)

1 recipe Tobacco Onions

Instructions

Brush steaks with the marinade and allow them to marinate at room temperature for 45 minutes. Combine the Kosher salt, Steak Seasoning and black pepper and season the steaks.

Prepare grill and cook over direct high heat until desired doneness is reached, about 8-10 minutes for medium rare. Turn the steaks once while cooking, and if flare ups occur, move the steaks to indirect heat for a minute or two.

Remove the steaks from the grill and allow them to rest for five minutes before serving.

To Serve, place a small mound of tobacco onions on each serving dish, rest the steaks on the onions and top with the roasted Garlic Bordelaise.

Orange and Bourbon Glazed Duck for Drew

My brother Drew and I were always wound up on Christmas Eve. He was four years older, but you’d never know it by how excited we both were. He’d be bouncing off the walls, too keyed up to sleep, while I’d follow his lead like I always did. When we finally did drift off, it wouldn’t be long before he’d shake me awake before dawn, eyes shining like he hadn’t slept a wink. Those early mornings felt like magic. Now, Christmas means he’s usually out duck hunting in the Delta, his favorite place on earth. He loves the hunt and the calm that comes with being out in the field before the sun rises. I thought of him when I put together this recipe. It’s a little bit of Drew—those wild December mornings in the Delta and the quiet way he’s always looked out for me.

Honey Bundt Cake

This bundt cake brings back memories of family gatherings on Bellewood Drive where sweets were as much a part of the celebration as the presents under the tree. The warm notes of cinnamon and honey make it a natural fit for holiday mornings or as the perfect finish to a Christmas feast. The pomegranate glaze adds a bright, tart finish that keeps things interesting. Make sure to grease every nook and cranny of your bundt pan thoroughly. Use butter and dust with flour for a clean release. Also, letting the cake cool for a solid twenty minutes before flipping is key to avoiding a sticky mess.
