Burgers and Sandwiches

Ingredients

3 pounds Whole beef tenderloin, cleaned and trimmed

1 cup Wishbone Italian dressing

1/4 cup Worcestershire Sauce

2 Tbsp Steak Seasoning (page xxx)

2 dozen Small rolls, cut in half, crosswise

5-6 cups Wood chips, soaked in water

Sauces:

Honey Spiked Dijon Mustard

Horseradish Cream Cheese Spread

Roasted Garlic Mayonnaise

Instructions

Combine the Italian dressing and Worcestershire Sauce and rub the outside of the tenderloin. Marinate for 30-45 minutes.

Prepare the grill. Sprinkle the tenderloin with the steak seasoning. Sear the tenderloin over direct medium heat for 15 minutes. Turn it one quarter turn every 4-5 minutes during the searing process.

Move the tenderloin to cook over indirect heat and cook until desired doneness is reached., 20-30 minutes for medium rare (135 degrees). Turn the tenderloin once every 15 minutes during this stage. Remove the tenderloin from the grill and allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes before carving.

Slice into thin slices. Place two-three slices on a roll and top with one or more of the following sauces.

Yield: 24 small sandwiches

Braised Beef Short Ribs with Smoked Gouda Grits

I am a huge fan of short rib entrees. They work especially well for large dinners as the doneness is all the same and no one has to worry about who prefers rare and who prefers medium. Plus, the bone acts as a conductor of heat, keeping it warm for longer. Smoked gouda adds depth and creaminess to grits. This version was created by Chef Nevil Barr, New South Restaurant Group’s Chief Culinary Officer. It’s made an appearance on the Crescent City Grill menu and we often use it for catering large groups (if multiplying the recipe for large groups, go easy on the salt and Creole seasoning, you can always add more at the end).

Banana Nut French Toast

Start your morning off right with this indulgent Banana Nut French Toast recipe — a delicious twist on a breakfast classic. Made with thick slices of bread soaked in a creamy cinnamon-vanilla custard, then topped with caramelized bananas and crunchy toasted pecans, this easy French toast is the perfect way to bring warmth and flavor to your table.

Apple French Toast

French toast has been a favorite since childhood—probably one of the first things I could make on my own. Pancakes were my grandmother Muz’s domain, but French toast was all mine. King’s Hawaiian Bread is always a solid choice, but if you can find a bakery that makes fresh brioche or sweet sourdough, grab it. Never been shy about my love for apples, especially Honey Crisp and Fuji. Apple pie’s always been my go-to, but this recipe takes the best part of apple pie and turns it into breakfast.
