1-2 Tablespoons milk or cream
2-4 large portabella mushrooms
Extra virgin olive oil
1-Tablespoon Soft Butter
House seasoning blend or any steak seasoning
(see right side bar on home page for recipe)

Drizzle each steak with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning
If meat is cold let sit at room temp for 15-20 minutes before grilling
Grill steaks with oil and seasoned side down to form grill marks; grill for 4-5 minutes on each side for a medium  rare steak; remove from heat and tent with foil; let rest at least 5 minutes before serving. 

Grilled Portabella’s

Clean mushrooms with a dry paper towel, take out stems and some of the gills from under side
(do not wash with water, extra moisture is not needed)

Spread butter on top of each mushroom and place on grill buttered side down
Grill for 8-10 minutes till just soft and tender; do not over cook

Blue Cheese Sauce

Melt the blue cheese with milk or cream in a small sauce pan just till creamy leaving some chunks; set aside, add more chunks of cheese if needed before serving and a pinch cayenne pepper

Slice the steak and mushrooms into thin strips and layer on plate
Pour blue cheese sauce over the top

Serve with dad’s favorite vegetable and baked potato
ENJOY!
