badams Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Ingredients* 8 of the largest, most glamorous Portobellos you can find* 1 medium yellow onion* 1 red bell pepper* 1 green bell pepper* Several tablespoons of olive oil* 8 - 3" square, thinly-sliced pieces of Havarti cheese* Salt and pepper to tastePreparationsRemove the stem from the mushrooms, and clean the caps thoroughly. Invest in a mushroom brush, if you will remember that you have one the next time you need one. Otherwise, use a wet paper towel to scrub the caps, taking care not to break the caps in your hand. You want the caps intact.Slice the onions and the red & green bell peppers into 1/2" strips. Sauté the onions and peppers in olive oil until slightly browned. Lay the freshly cleaned mushroom cups topside down on a large cookie sheet, and "mound" the onions and peppers on top of the caps.Carefully lower the mushroom caps onto the BBQ grill using a spatula -- hopefully adjacent to your salmon steaks -- and leave them there for about 3 or 4 minutes. Then place a slice of Havarti on each cap. Leave on the grill just long enough to let the cheese melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 this is what happened. I forgot to revisit this post, but MarcO's was the closest so he wins the golden tongs.I grabbed some sweet potatoes, asparagus and a very nice striploin. We tend to portion out 1 striploin for 2. It's amazing how much steak we are conditioned to think is one portion.I setup the hardwood in the chimney starter and got it glowing in about 20 minutes. I spread the now glowing coals out on the lower grill and then I put the sweet potatoes DIRECTLY on the coals. I turned them after about 3 rock band songs (approx 15 minutes) and continued until the entire outer skin was charred.After the 2nd turn, i started another back of hardwood coal in the chimney starter to be ready for the meat and asparagus.I brushed the asparagus with sesame oil, soya sauce, minced garlic, and sprinkled on some coarse salt, lotsa pepper and sesame seeds.I seasoned the meat liberally with coarse salt and pepper.at this point the grill was hotter than our gas bbq ever was. the sizzling noise was almost deafening when I laid my meat out.after I charred up the one side, I added the asparagus. by the time I had let the meat rest of the grill, everything was ready. The potatoes were dressed with a maple-cinnamon butter that I prepared in between rock band songs. (4 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp freshly tapped maple syrup, 1 tsp cinnamon)delicious meal all grilled.

Ol'Hickster Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) Very nice Very nice! You shoudl buy a nice Porterhouse if yea want a good striploin though, The porterhouse is the first 10-12 cuts off of the top of the loin and usually consist of having alot of beautiful marbling, See the strip loin is just the large part of a loin cut without the bone( you pay more for labour of the butcher to remove the bone) But if you get a nice porter house you get a beautiful Striploin and a good peice of Tenderloin (usually quite expensive by itself) and you get the great flavour of the marrow in the bone when cooked. But if you lookin for price Savings when you shopping most butchers or meat cutters will just take Wing steak( cheaper bottom of the loin cut) de-bone it and make the price up a few dollars more and call it NY Stirploin, So if you want a nice striploin at cheap price Try looking at a nice wing steak and just take the bone off yourself Edited April 12, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 wing steak? I've never heard of that or seen it labelled. is there another name to look for?I used to buy ribeye until our regular butcher at the time started offering meat buying tips. He told me I was wasting my money buying meat off the bone. So I started getting full prime rib steaks. however, they end up being much more meat for one. Sharon and I recently started portioning the cuts together so things like this end up cheaper when you eat less meat than expected.I love meat buying tips. I honestly can't say that I see the full porterhouse cut when we're at the YIG. I know that we can ask for whatever we want though.keep the tips flowing.

Ol'Hickster Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) Bigger half(bottom)is the "NY Striploin" and the smaller(top) is a nice peice of Tenderloin As for Wing Steak, Its the bottom cuts of the loin and do not have any of the tenderloin on it It goes from front to bottom of the loin being Porterhouse, T-bone, then Wing steak Heres a breakdown of the beef Edited April 12, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 That is the best graphic ever posted on this website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 According to that graphic, New England is Chuck and Florida is Shank.The other day I bought a Hangar steak at Saslove's. I hadn't cooked it before but it was embarassingly cheap. $11 served 6 of us planty of meat. It was also nice and tender and didn't require a long marinade the way flank steak seems to need. I love flank too but it's no longer a cheap cut, I guess because it's more popular.Hickster do you have any recipes or suggestions for blade steaks and other cheap cuts of steak? I'm full of ideas for chuck and the braising cuts but I don't know if I've ever made anything with a blade steak before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishtaper Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 i should take a course in meat. i always get confused. and a course in knife techniques too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol'Hickster Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Blade steak is a good steak, but it is pretty much a stewing steak, but it you were to braise it I think that would do well it if full of flavour due to the bone content but can be tough its if its grilled, but I mean I know people that swear by it as a BBQ steak but I wouldnt BBQ it unless it was long marinaded or being tossed in the beautiful stew, But it usually is a cheaper steak, and I would deffinatly add it to stew or braise it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol'Hickster Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Any other good cheap steak option is the flank steak, its usually really cheap but can usually be tough so whenever I get one I will give it a good bash with the mallet on both sides tenderising it then let it sit for a good long time in a marinade of your choice then throw it on the barbie!
