Steak Sundays!

Hello all, back at it again with tonight's meal. I was flipping through my fridge and freezer and decided that I want steak...it is decided! I put it on the counter and watched it thaw. Ok I didn't actually pull up a chair and stare at the steak thawing, but I did make sure to pull out the steak early enough in the day so that it was good to go when I was ready. Alright time to cook:

I actually followed my previous steak cooking process from one of my first posts, which you can conveniently find by clicking here. I really don't want to just copy and paste that post, although I'm quite tempted. So instead I'll just give some highlights and you can check out the old post for specifics.

  • I again used garlic powder, salt, and pepper to season my steak and found it do be oh-so-delicious. Now let me give you some background: I'm a big A1 steak sauce guy and use a considerable amount when eating steak. Well, with this steak tonight, no steak sauce was used! And maybe because I actually don't have an A1 in my fridge, but we'll chalk this one up on account of the steak being so flavorful.
  • I cooked the steak in the oven on high broil (I have no idea how hot that actually is), flipped it every 5 minutes for the first 15 minutes and then continually checked the steak to get it as well as I wanted it.
  • I'm thinking "Steak Sundays" could actually turn into a thing. It's a great way to get the week ahead going, and going in the right direction. Check back for more details to see if this actually happens.
  • I didn't have just steak tonight. I also whipped up some hash brown potatoes which are quite easy to make. Throw some olive or vegetable oil in a pan, dumped the potatoes in, flip a couple of times and cook until golden brown. Also try following the directions on the package, that usually works too.
  • Also made some broccoli. Put some in a bowl, added a little water and salt, and cooked in the microwave for 3 minutes. Pretty simple way to cook some broccoli and get that much need green in your meal.


That's all, folks! (P.S. Happy belated birthday to America!)
