You've just bought an expensive Beef Tenderloin Roast...now what?

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 20:08:15 GMT

First, keep it simple. Nothing ruins an expensive cut of beef tenderloin more than over-spicing or over-marinating does. Let the flavor of the beef shine through and enhance the flavors with mild seasoning like this dijon, thyme and pepper blend. Secondly, don't over-cook it, make sure you use an internal temperature gauge and take it off the BBQ at 125F for Rare or 140F for Medium. Enjoy this mild dijon-thyme-peppercorn beef tenderloin recipe at your next formal dinner.

Fri, 21 Oct 2011 20:30:58 GMT

It's also a perfect marinade for grilled shrimp! I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out but I didn't have much to lose (other than a pound of shrimp). Turns out the junipery flavor of gin matches perfectly with the zesty sweet orange flavor of the marmalade. I added some crushed red pepper flakes just because and this turned out remarkably well. Its a real easy grilled shrimp recipe side dish for steak and chicken and takes no time to cook. If I ever get asked to cook for the Royal Family this will definately be on the menu.

simple recipe, authentic flavor. If you enjoy the tastes of India, especially the tandoori flavor then you'll appreciate this recipe.

Burgundy wine Beef Kabobs that will Pop Your Cork

Wed, 21 Sep 2011 18:51:38 GMT

Not keen on dryed out old beef kabobs? Me neither. Main trick to make sure you're not eating boot leather next time is to grill them at least 500F and take them off no later then 135F internal temp (you do have an instant read thermometer, right?) Remove then about 135F and you've got medium which should please the majority of people. The other feature of this recipe is the deep rich flavors of the burgundy wine marinade blend. Nice smooth subtle flavors that work perfectly with the red onion and green pepper. This is definitely a step above the plain jane beef kabob's you'll buy in the grocery store butcher shop. I also tried my new FireWire flexible wire shish kabob skewers - nice.
