Whewie! That was one damn-ass good-ass Ribeye/Mushroom/Asparagus supper!

[Rabrrrrrr]

If I do say so myself.

I fried me up a Black Angus boneless ribeye - and in another pan, sauteed up some sliced portabellas. Ribeye and mushrooms finished at same time, so I removed both to a plate and covered them. Then I deglazed the angus pan with a few ladles of the French Onion soup I've had simmering for 2 hours, added a bit of Half & Half, and then finished it off with a swirl of butter. In the mushroom pan, I added some butter, and then tossed in about 20 stalks of very thin asparagus and sauteed them, served them in a shallow long dish and covered with butter and salt. Then I poured the sauce on the ribeye/mushroom mix, and sat down at table and ate my fill!

YUM!!!!

1. How bizarre - DU tells me someone responded to this, but I see nothing

:shrug:

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

2. I did, but got an error? Tried again, got an error?

:shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. Strange - that must be it, the two errors

Before I posted this (which will make it number 5), DU tells me that there are four posts in this thread - which means mine, yours, and your two failed ones.

I've never seen DU register errors before like this.

7. Mouth Immediately Waters Upon Reading About A Big Juicy Steak

mmmmmmmm..... steaaak......


(that's what I put. 3 times it didn't go through, but I think it's cause I put "<---" before the word mouth. Threw off DU somehow?)

[Rabrrrrrr]

8. That was the problem - you can't start a subject line with the less than

sign

Makes DU think your subject line is blank, and fucks everything up.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

9. That's Friggin Wild!!! Never Knew That! What if you put a space first?

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. That doesn't matter - I've accidentally done it a lot,

and the space just gets left out.

At least, I think that's what happened.

Give it a shot!

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

14. Wait.... So Does That Mean I Could Start That Way A Hundred Times In

Reply to one of my threads, and people will actually think I got 100 posts? LOL

[Rabrrrrrr]

15. Yep. If you got the time to spare to do that,

have at it!

3. You are a sadist, Mr. Rabarrrrr

I tell you again, sir... sadist. Actually, what would have made it perfect (in my humble opinion) would be some new potatoes, boiled, with just a soupcon of butter and garlic.

[Rabrrrrrr]

6. That would have been nice! But I will have potatoes tomorrow night.

I only have them rarely, never two days in a row.

And yes, I am a sadist! I eat these things only to make other people feel bad! Bwuhahahhahahha! Truth to tell, I don't even have taste buds! Or a sense of smell! Double bwuhahahahahaha!

10. Speaking of asparagus

I spent several days in the "Asparagus Capital of the World" (Trujillo in Peru). O. M. G.! Fresh and organic asparagus... nothing like the woody green stalks (canned, if you can believe it) we get up here. Steamed with a sprinkle of butter, garlic and some of the fresh local cheese. Okay, that's done it. I have to go find a towel to wipe off my keyboard.

5. I'm salivating just reading your description......

Eating well IS the best revenge! :thumbsup:

11. you FRIED a ribeye????

arggggghhhhh! that is sacreligious!! :wow:

(still sounds good tho. i LOOOOOVE butter)

[Rabrrrrrr]

12. What else am I supposed to do with it? I can't use the grill.

Frying is a time-honored French tradition, by the way.

[shanti]

16. umm, broil?

i just couldn't fry something like a thick ass ribeye, call me provincial :shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

17. I don't broil. My broiler is electric,

and there's no sense in even turning it on.

But otherwise, yes, broiling is wonderfulment!!

But then you don't get the chance to make a nice sauce.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

19. Get A Flavorwave! I love ours.

Cooks food great every time.

[shanti]

20. the sauce sounds delightful!

coronary on a plate - my favorite kind of food - really! :evilgrin:

i have an electric oven with broiler and use it to broil salmon and steaks, that's about it. i'd LOVE to have gas cooking, but my home is all electric unfortunately.

[philosophie_en_rose]

18. MMmmmmmmmmmmmmm .... Sacrilicious...

Frying a ribeye wouldn't be too bad. If the pan is really hot, it sears the outside as well as broiling.

[shanti]

21. well, you guys have given me some inspiration

i may try it next time!

[Rabrrrrrr]

23. Just remember, pan frying is a time honored tradition, even in France

And yes, one must use a hot pan.

I love the taste of a pan fried steak. 3-4 minutes on a side, comes out nice and medium rare, and leaves all sorts of delightful pieces in the pan to deglaze and make an amazing sauce from.

22. Dear god that sounds heavenly

Except for asparagus, but that's a minor point. (I don't like foods that make my pee stink.)

A belated happy T-day to you, Rabrrrrrr.

[arwalden]

24. Heh-heh-heh! Stop Teasing The Peta Nuts And Vegans!

It sounds DELICIOUS!! :thumbsup:

[Rabrrrrrr]

25. It was delicious! And for breakfast, I had biscuits and sausage gravy!

It's nice being on holiday.

Can't wait for the oyster stew tonight!

[Rabrrrrrr]

26. p.s. - fuck PETA
