Steak Night Dinner

I love to have friends over and one thing I have learned is not to make dinner too complicated. People like good, simple things- and not everything has to be homemade. Ribeye steaks are one of my go to for summer dinner parties. My husband, Jay, grills the steaks, I make the salad and dessert ahead of time and then I throw together one side dish.

You can make your own marinade or opt for the easy method I use which is Allegro Marinade. I love the salty goodness of the original version. I usually place the steaks in a baking pan and pour over the marinade. I leave the steaks in the pan on the counter throughout the day. I want to make certain these thick steaks are room temperature all the way through before we place them on the grill. I know this will be controversial, however I have been doing this for years with great results.

I am not a fancy girl. I will set the table with my white plates I have had for ages. I just think food looks better on a white plate. And I will add some cloth napkins (I have several patterns, I absolutely love cloth napkins). My silverware may or may not match- some things are just not that important to me. The most important thing are those seated around the table.

I highly recommend using a meat thermometer. After years of cooking steaks to perfection, Jay can do it in his sleep and can tell the temp of the steaks just by touch. This is a learned practice that takes lots of experience, so I suggest a digital meat thermometer, just to be sure. Steaks are too expensive to overcook.
