Just a Man and His Kitchen: Court Bouillon
I love the simplicity of a Court Bouillon. For me, it is a quintessential method for preparing fish, and I use it often for tilapia, basa, and salmon. It’s a simple and fairly fast French preparation that works well with most fish and seafood. Below is the Court Bouillon that I have developed and use… Read More

Just a Man in His Kitchen: Chili
Chili. Is there a better dish for a cold winter day? Or the big game? Or a tailgate? Or a spring party? Or, for that matter, any time at all? I love a good chili myself, and I often make it when asked to bring a dish to a party or social gathering. Not to… Read More

Just a Man in His Kitchen: Swiss Chard
Green leafy vegetables are a wonderful thing! No, really, they are! They’re good for you, and they can be a wonderful flavor accompaniment to various dishes. This here is the recipe for the Swiss chard that accompanied my chicken meatloaf. I really like chard as a side for a multitude of different meals. The question… Read More

Just a Man in His Kitchen: Yukon Gold Mashed Potatoes
Who doesn’t love good mashed potatoes? They’re a great side dish for so many different proteins. These Yukon Gold mashed potatoes were paired with my chicken meatloaf, but they can be paired with just about any protein. One of the pluses to these mashed potatoes is that they do not require butter, so if you… Read More

Just a Man in His Kitchen: Chicken Meatloaf
Meatloaf. Although it has European origins, it really is a quintessential piece of Americana. Meatloaf is right up there with pot roast, chicken pot pie, and other classic American family dinners. I was a fan of the standard ground beef meatloaf for a long time. After some prodding from the wife to try to make my… Read More

Just a Man in His Kitchen: Tomato Sauce
When it came time to decide which recipe I would share first, I strained my brain for days. Where would I begin this culinary voyage? So many options… so many possibilities… In the end, I decided to lean toward my Italian roots (and when it comes to cooking I seem to lean toward my Italian… Read More

The Last Supper – Ribeye Steak with Sweet Potao Fries and a Vegetable Stir-Fry Medley
It is that time of year again, holidays are over…. New Year…Time to get in shape….In addition to this I have two major motivating factors, turning 50 this year and my compadre…C.W. Harris has been grinding it out (becoming a Super Hero). I am feeling bad. Need to get back the Abs. But before this happen, I have to have my LAST SUPPER!!!!
So about two weeks ago, passing by one of my favorite neighborhood butcher, La Rosa, I spot Ribeye. (If there any that I am sure God created besides me, it was a beautiful piece of meat called Ribeye.) Something about it started singing to me in a heavenly voice. I could hear myself being delivered. As if I was being seduced and had to cheat on my princesa, she called me. Devour me. She called my name. I knew how Adam felt (or some of our politicians) TEMPTED!!!! I ask for two pieces about two inches thick each. That would give me one piece for me. And enough for everyone else! (I am being fair. For it was I that was suffering thru this moment of deceitful lust!!)
While smoking My UZI Weighs a Ton (thank you Mr. Drew). I walk home… enough time to contemplate how and when I was going to partake of her love, for yes. Ribeye …I shall have you. First, just like any great Goddess, she needed to be prepared for sacrifice. Let’s see What’s in da Fridge? How can I dress her for a soon to come lovely night of decadence?
Got it. She will be bathed (aged) for at least a week in a bath only fit for her beauty.
Queen’s bath (marinade)
- Balsamic Vinegar
- Cracked Black Pepper
- Rosemary
- Salsa (got some left over from Costco)
- Crushed Garlic
I leave her there resting in all of her lavishness for two weeks. (Yeah in the fridge – wrapped and sealed in good old Tupperware – to keep the refrigerator taste out.)
