Do you pan sear the steak?

I don’t have a gas broiler, so getting that black & blue isn’t that easy.

[Skooz]

No, I didn’t. Next time I will. Grilling a good steak is a bit of a passion.

Merry Christmas all! Not really alone, but in away, yes. I am a single person. But blessed to be sharing a home with my father and youngest (in college) daughter. My daughter has a friend and her teen brother nearly living with us these days too. They had some home issues. We are a hodge-podge group. Like my pets are, we are all like the island of misfit toys. I enjoyed giftwrapping and cooking today, along with my traditional movies that pick me up. And YES, main one was, "It's a Wonderful Life"! That is my tradition. For dinner I made Gumbo and Beignets. I am going to make that a new part of my Christmas celebrations. I make new things part of it all the time. As I need to refocus the alone thing too. Not alone, but sort of, yeah. But not really either. Right now, have the tv tuned into Christmas music station showing the pets run in front of a fireplace and Christmas decorations. Even just had a little pig! . Never saw that before. Normally they just show the cats and dogs stuff. Because hey, who doesn't love to see that. Very Christmassy. Hugs and a Very Merry Christmas to All of FR Family!!!
