The Porterhouse Steak


The grill is open! And I was given the task of buying steaks to grill for dinner. I was filled with dread. I am not really the best person to pick out a steak. I usually opt for Skirt Steak but I did not feel that was what was needed for opening night of the grill. I went to Robert's and asked the butcher what he would suggest. "The Porterhouse", was the answer. And it was on sale!!!! I got a big one for Chris and a smaller one for me. I brushed the steaks with olive oil, pepper and kosher salt and let them sit for 2 hours. Chris popped them on the grill and it was like magic.
 
 I made mine disappear! 

 
I picked up Twice Baked Potatoes from the prepared food department. I had been doing spring cleaning today and I wanted this dinner to be as hands off as possible.

Nice wine pick for dinner. Bogle Vineyards Old Vine Zinfandel.
