Dinner last night for the wife & I (click to enlarge).
Bison New York Steak
Two nice grilled-to-medium-rare bison steaks from Whole Foods, and some frozen broccoli prepared in a new way. I put the frozen veggies on a cookie sheet, along with a large dollop of coconut oil and placed it in the oven at 400. Some minutes later I was able to toss them, so as to distribute the oil, and then let it go for about 20 minutes, then finally about 3-5 minutes under the broiler to get the crispies.
The sauce was 2/3 beef, 1/3 chicken stock, a handful of blueberries about to go bad, and a pinch of rosemary, patiently reduced. I always get this started first and only when very near completion do I cook the steaks. Once reduced, I strain it, let the steaks rest a few minutes, and finally toss in the juices from the resting as the final step.

Man that looks good!
We've been doing the same with broccoli on the grill in a basket w/ coconut oil. I think it might be easier to coat the broccoli in the baking sheet though.
Did you eat that whole BIG STEAK all by yourself? I gave it the thumbs up. You can fix that for me the next time I'm in town, deal?
Richard,
I read your webpage regularly, just thumbed up as asked – glad to help in any way I can
Yumm…That sauce sounds great! Do you make your own beef and chicken stock? Just curious b/c I just finished posting about stocks: (http://evolutioncatering.blogspot.com/2009/08/i...)
The Trader Joe's bison steaks ARE really good. I cook mine just super rare and add some delicious organic butter, like Kerry Gold or President. Yum.

Yep. On my phone right now but if you search beef bone stock on the
blog, you should find it.

Didn't know TJ's had Bison. Well, I've got one a mere 5 minutes away, so I'll have to check. I've usually got them at WF.
Yeah, Trader Joe's has these bison steaks that come 2 to a package. Very good deal. Have you tried President butter, Richard? It is INCREDIBLE tasting! I put butter on almost all of my meat, as I need the extra calories for working out.
