JAK's

It was a Saturday night, and somewhat incredulously, I found myself in West Seattle for the third time in as many months. Also beyond belief: I was having dinner at mothertrucking JaK’s Grill. Now I readily admit that my food writing is completely subjective and hopelessly incompetent, but this is only exacerbated by the fact that I’m nowhere near equipped to comment on a steakhouse. I know nothing about steak, and don’t much care to.

From the Minnesota State Fair “On-a-Stick” food vendor category:
Texas Steak Out

NEW this year: Texas Steak Dinner on-a-stick (cubed steak, potatoes, onion, peppers and a dinner roll) and Texas Tater Dogs (a spiral cut potato wrapped around a course ground sausage).

Pictures from a Saturday field visit are promised to me, and should appear in this space early next week.

UPDATE:
steak-on-a-stick
ACTUAL: the kindly diner who allowed this photo had the dinner roll removed for photographic purposes:

Thanks to Sue and the Gang out in the field in Minnesota. I’ll join you next year!

We were amazed how large the steak was. Our waitress told me the Filet Mignon is even larger than the New York Steak. I can’t wait to go back on our next trip to try that one.

If you find yourself traveling near Santa Maria on the 101 and are craving a great steak, please give Jocko’s a try. Just make sure you bring your family or friends to help you finish your meal or a very healthy appetite.

If you love your weekly steak, here’s a great way to take it up a few notches. The combination of thyme, beef and mushrooms with the salsa verde is so so good and can’t be beaten.

“beans to kick you in the gonads”

Barbecue baked beans recipe : use real butter seems to be a blog about food, advocating the use of real butter. This here is a case of a recipe for baked beans. It sounds tempting, to put some of these on the side-burner while roasing up a shitload of brisket or something. One beef though: where’s the bacon?!

She also presents a bunch of nice photographic work, as well as some actual recipes for steak, like Grilled Marinate Flank which I’ll have to try. Nice!


The New York Steak I made for Toni for dinner yesterday. I sauteed it in olive oil to sear it well and develop the fond. Then I finished it in the broiler until it was the proper doneness. I prepped it with olive oil, Fleur de Sel and fresh ground pepper.

Steak with Horseradish Crushed Potatoes

Steak with Horseradish Crushed Potatoes


From a very nicely categorized (and photographed!!) home food blog of the British or Canadian variety. Very good work, and plenty of cookery inspiration of the non-steak variety as well.

There’s a story here. An interesting story.
