9/17/11 Bone-in Cowboy Ribeye & CraZ Mac N Cheese
Scott wanted the ribeye...I wanted the Mac n cheese...and they are a marriage made in heaven. The recipe for the mac n cheese is on here already...we didn't add chicken this time because of the steak...but thin pancetta, asparagus and baby bella mushrooms were in order...you could easily eliminate them all and just do the mac n cheeses...but oh how I love the bacon and 'shrooms...and something green makes me feel so healthy! (and it's yummy too) Scott's Cowboy Ribeye (Bone-in) 1 Bone in Ribeye...at least 1 lb (his was about 20-22 oz) brought to room temp smothered in Emeril's Essence (see the Marriage Chili recipe for the essence recipe)...heat a cast iron skillet (please ventilate the house with open doors/windows or do outside) over medium heat and sear steak 12-15 min per side (it will smoke and look black...do not panic) let rest with a pat of butter (and blue cheese crumbles) for at least 10-15 min EAT! This steak is enough for two people to share.......
