Meat

Who doesn’t love a juicy, perfectly cooked burger in the summertime with all the fixings? Homemade wins out over a restaurant burger any day! Now that we have moved from CA to TX, I had to create my own favorite burger with some southern charm, just in time for Labor Day. This Texas BBQ Cheeseburger has all my favorite elements and I hope you make them and enjoy them as much as I do for your next BBQ.

Beef Bourguignon is the epitome of cold-weather comfort food. There are two recipes I have made for years because honestly, they are the best. This was, after all, one of the dishes Julia Childs was most famous for.

There is an amazing depth of flavor that happens after the meat braises in all of the ingredients and the house smelled amazing. Our whole family loved them, and my husband actually claimed he would never eat tacos any other way ever again!

I created this recipe for Za’atar Rack of Lamb with Pistachio Mint Gremolata knowing that our family gatherings this Easter may still be on the small side. It’s a great alternative to that huge honey baked ham or larger cut leg of lamb. A rack of lamb adds an element of elegance to a holiday or special occasion and is perfect for a small gathering.

This is one of those recipes that if you master, you’ll be creating restaurant quality steaks in your own home. Butter basting the filet’s with garlic and herbs is already next level, but the addition of the Horseradish Gorgonzola Sauce is just amazing!

Who doesn’t need a little luck of the Irish? I have a little Irish in me, so I’m not sure I should admit this but I’m not crazy about the traditional Corned Beef & Cabbage. So, I set out to develop a few other options to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, one of them being this Guinness Lamb Stew.

There is nothing better than an incredibly juicy, perfectly cooked steak at your favorite steakhouse. Well, I lied. There is something better. Making your own incredibly juicy, perfectly cooked steak at home! This Steakhouse Filet Mignon with Red Wine Reduction is that steak. It's the kind of meal that will make you ask, "Why go out?".

Slow braised short ribs cooked until they're fall off the bone tender, with amazing ancho flavors make these tacos a perfect choice to feed a crowd.

We always have Roasted Boneless Leg of Lamb on Christmas Eve. I have found no better way to prepare it than with this Julia Child marinade, it's delicious!

I have been making Pot Roast for years...I think it's one of the first home cooked meals I mastered without having to look at a recipe. Along the way, I have made so many adjustments, as is the same with so many recipes. I'm always trying to find ways to elevate them, or make them even better. This is my Deconstructed Pot Roast, hope you enjoy!

Taking the ordinary to the extraordinary with this Roasted Vegetable Beef Stew Recipe. Add one extra step of roasting the vegetables first before adding them to the stew. The result is a natural sweetness that shines through. Cozy and comforting, perfect fall dish!

This is one of my all time favorite recipes! It's perfect for a weekend meal or for entertaining friends and family. The house will smell amazing and this is a dish you will make again and again.

Slow-Braised Short Ribs are an easy and delicious, impress your family & friends with this perfect fall dinner...comfort food at it's best!
