It’s birthday week!
A bit of tradition has been created for my birthday over the last few years and that would be a large, perfectly aged, prime rib steak on the bone. My husband takes charge of all the preparations, picks up the steak from the butcher, seasons the steak, barbecues it until it’s a perfectly cooked “rare” steak. Yumm….
Then, in my opinion, comes the best part.
My guilty pleasure is the bone. I eat a little bit of the steak but then it’s time for picking up the bone with my hands and chewing off all the gorgeous, succulent, juicy meat remaining! Sure it’s a bit messy but who cares! That’s what napkins are for!
What about accompaniments you might ask? My absolute favourite is a crisp salad dressed with blue cheese dressing. What the heck is it about beef and blue cheese? I think it’s a match made you know where!
Now, where are those presents???

Happy Birthday Phyllis!
But…. as far as I’m concerned if there is no money shot of you taking on that beef slathered bone it didn’t happen 😉
Hey, that $$ shot will be taken on Monday night! ….you’ll see, greasy hands & all!
Ciao, P
