Top 5 BBQ Recipes

These are my top five recipes for the BBQ, the ones I go back to over and over again because they never let me down.

Truffled Steak Salad

Truffled Steak Salad

A week ago I got to take a trip back to McEwan Foods in Toronto. This store holds really great memories for me. The first time I was there, I wandered around for 45 minutes, in absolute awe of everything you could buy, and stocking up on probably a little too much. I had just…

Bolognese Meat Sauce

Ok, I’ve watched a look of cooking shows, and read even more cookbooks. I always hear about Bolognese, real Bolognese, this magical meat sauce that’s simmered all day until it because a sweet, rich, “gravy” that just can not be beat. With a husband that loves his jar of Ragu, and hates any form of…

Classic Osso Bucco

So, winter is basically here, and that means it is really cold pretty much every day. This is a major shock to the system, especially since we’ve only been back from Florida for four days, and when we left two weeks ago I could still run out to the grocery store in a t-shirt without…

Marinated Flank (or Skirt) Steak

I’ve been flip-flopping on posting this one, solely because I only have one useable picture, and calling it useable in a stretch. It was a combination of losing the light, and having tasted a lick of the pan sauce that made me want to do nothing but stick a fork in this steak. I decided…

Better Than Takeout Homemade Gryos

This was such a fun recipe to make, and I felt so accomplished afterwards because it worked on the first try! That’s always a good sign, when something you think will be hard (after all, we usually pay for take out when we feel like this), turns out to not only be incredibly easy, but…

Steak au Poivre (steak in a cognac cream sauce)

I got an email a few months ago telling me about the Courvoisier Collective Challange. Courvoisier Cognac was looking for people to create recipes using their cognac, and then post them up on their site. It’s open to culinary students, and home chefs, in Ontario. This is why I’m going to beg and plead for your…

Peppercorn Steak

I have to say this right off the get-go: Best steak I have ever eaten. And it wasn’t even a good steak. It was a horrible steak. It was cheap, not aged, didn’t have good marbling, too thin, and I let it rest a bit too long so it traveled past the medium that I…

Salisbury Steak

Alright, here’s a recipe that, admittedly, I’ve been holding off on posting. It’s not because it’s bad. Not at all. In fact, Bo really liked it. It’s just that I don’t like mushrooms. I realize that this is a stupid reason to not post a recipe. I also realize that many people enjoy mushrooms. Especially…

Classic Chili – This means beans!

I know that a lot of chili’s, especially in certain parts of the states, consider beans to be sacrilegious. And probably ground meat too, but to me, a chili isn’t a chili without a boat load of kidney beans. This is a really nice, basic, easy chili to make, but I’ll throw in a few…

Chili Mac and Cheese

So, this is another recipe created by those people who I worship over at America’s Test Kitchen (from their skillet suppers magazine). It cooked up so nice and quick, had the perfect amount of spice, wasn’t over powering at all for Bo who isn’t a big chili fan, and best of all, Oliver liked it…

Chicken Fried Steak

Ok, I know what you’re all thinking: Holy heart attack on a plate. You know what, that’s exactly what I thought every time my Papa ordered it at the Cracker Barrel on vacation. On a side note, if the Cracker Barrel is scoffed at by actual American’s, this Canadian doesn’t care. I live for those…

Hi, I’m Katrina…

I used to be a graphic designer who slept in every Saturday and ate out more than in. Now, I'm a stay at home mom of three little kids who loves cooking great tasting meals at home. I hoard a ridiculous amount of cookbooks, have been known to bbq in three feet of snow, and am obsessed with keeping things organized (though you'd never know it by the state of my house). More about me here...
