Risotto Americano

This exaggeratedly American risotto is topped with homemade potato chips, sliced razor thin and baked on a sheet with olive oil, and garnished with avocados. The Risotto was reduced in a vegetable stock and infused with velveeta "cheese product" and spring onions. Unfortunately it wasn't quite enough for a party of 6, so an XL anchovy pizza had to be ordered from Pizza Box.

Grilled chuck steak and lamb leg steaks in chimichurri sauce

Grilling beef and lamb steaks in the summer time is an urban legend, in the sense that it is legendary. These were marinated and finished with a chimichurri sauce made with grille limes, grilled leeks, and cilantro pureed in the magic bullet.

"Porterhouse for One"

The ideal date; me, myself, and I... and a Porterhouse (rare), good light lager, and a mild H. Upmann cigar. -- Porterhouse was raised in Flemmington NJ and saw the Weber grill for about two minutes each side, non presoak charcoal. I saw a 6 pac of the grolsh while driving balls in the back yard; I wouldn't recommend swinging anything heavier than a 3 wood on a full stomach.
