The unappreciated steak…

…but not here at Thistle Hill. Others can have their filet or rib eye but no steak tastes better to me than the Delmonico!

Church liberated a couple of Delmonicos from the freezer the other day…and started with a short marinade.

He followed with his favorite cooking method which is Sous Vide and then a quick flash searing on the grill. The result using that technique is a perfect steak every time!

If you’ve wondered, the Delmonico was introduced at a New York restaurant of the same name back in the 1800s. The Baked Alaska also originated there…as did Lobster ala Newberg and clam chowder.

And if you’re a fan of the Delmonico, you’re in good company: Teddy Roosevelt, Mark Twain, “Diamond Jim” Brady and Oscar Wilde all shared your enthusiasm!
