LongHorn Steak Hawaiian Rib Eye Steak

There are a few things I like at Longhorn Steak House. And one of them is this Hawaiian Rib eye Steak. if you like sweetness do add the brown sugar. If that is too sweet for you leave the brown sugar out.

Witlof (Belgian Endive) Salad

Witlof (Belgian Endive) Salad

In the United States Belgian endive is considered to be a gourmet and expensive vegetable, I paid for 4 pieces of Belgian Endive $4.97. I don’t eat it as often as I would like to, simply because you will not find them in the regular grocery store like Walmart or Kroger. I spotted these in the Whole Foods Store.
Belgian Endive can be used raw in salads or cooked. In the Netherlands, Belgian endive is an inexpensive, commonly consumed winter and spring vegetable and used most often in hot preparations and on occasion raw in salads. My favorite is the way my mom used to make it. The leaves are crunchy and slightly bitter

Easy Pork Carnitas

Easy Pork Carnitas

This is not the proper way to make Carnita’s.  But hey it’s close enough to it. I had some left over pulled pork and decided to make Carnita’s with it.

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 oranges, juiced and quartered
  • 1 lime, juiced and quartered
  • 1 tsp crushed garlic
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili chipotle powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp chicken base
  • 1 – 1½ cups water
  • Shredded Pulled Pork
  • Flour Tortillas or Corn Tortillas
  • Pico de Gallo
 

Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients into a large Dutch oven and simmer for ½ hour until most of the liquid is absorbed. You want to have about ½ cup liquid left in bottom of pan. Preheat oven to broil.
  2. Spread shredded meat, remaining juices and the oranges and lime on a baking sheet and broil for 10 minutes until browned.
  3. I like to brown the flour tortilla on both sides. Add the Pork, salsa and whatever else you like to top on you Carnita.

Famous Dave’s Broccoli Salad

Famous Dave’s Broccoli Salad

I’ve never had the opportunity to eat @ Famous Dave. But I saw this on the Food Channel and I just had to try this. The info what was given on the tv show and a little but of my own tasting and testing this is what I came up with. The salad dressing is actually the same way my mother used to make, home made salad dressing. On the Tv show no mustard was used and peanuts were used instead of the walnuts.

SudderLapjes (Braised Beef)

SudderLapjes (Braised Beef)

A typically Dutch Dish. Braised beef goes by two names, Sudderlapjes (braised beef) or Draadjes Vlees (thread meat). A delicious old-fashioned stew on the table. This is the real braised beef like my mother used to make. The only difference is, I put it in the slowcooker, she used to cook it on top of the stove.
