Pinehurst Joe "celebrates" Judge Whyte & FTC

Those on the Pinehurst Thread know that Joe is a man of many talents. One is his culinary skills. We were blessed with the following:

We had a great meal last night to celebrate the lack of a FTC ruling by 2-2-07....Whyte must feel like an ass, after delaying for FTC, but we can eat....

Garlic English Muffins....double toast Bays English muffins until dark and crispy....melt butter and garlic salt in saucepan ... spread on muffins and put them aside...when steaks are done, sprinkle with paprika and slide under broiler for a short time....

As always, Idaho instant mashed potatoes....
Canned Asparagus

Finely chop four shallots, put in saucepan with butter....cook until lightly brown, add three tablespoons of Worchestire Sauce, pronounced "Wooster" Sauce, cook under low heat until most of Wooster sauce is gone , remove and set aside....

In a large skillet, add 6 tablespoons of butter, bring to medium high heat, add a 24 once Allen Brothers 2 inch thick steak (see below) which has been prepped with generous amounts of cracked pepper and garlic salt, cook 6 minutes on a side, doesn't sound like enough, but steaks will continue to cook after removed from heat, Take drippings and add to the shallots, if you like, cook shallots until slightly crisp, which is how we prefer this recipe, otherwise simply heat...this sauce is wonderful on the steak and also adds a lot to butter taste on the mashed potatoes...try some of the shallots on the garlic English muffins, incredible...feeds three...enjoy

Caution, have one shaken, not stirred, very dry Vodka martini with one olive while cooking...have another as you sit down to table, but limit yourself to two, otherwise you will not remember how good this meal was, have glass of "Fat Bull' cab with meal....Joe
