Secret Sirloin Steak – It’s The Marinade

This Secret Sirloin Steak is impressive. Sirloin isn’t my favorite steak-cut, but this marinade makes the meat tender and delicious.

 

I’ll bet even those who say they don’t like marinated meat would like this recipe.

This recipe is a definite “keeper,” and I’m going to experiment with other less-tender cuts of beef like flank steak or round steak.

Grilled Porterhouse Steak With Paprika-Parmesan Butter

I love a good Grilled Porterhouse Steak but it’s the Paprika-Parmesan butter that puts this one over the top. Easy to make and delicious!

My Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce

This is a Crockpot Spaghetti Sauce recipe that has been developed over time. My crockpot is my best friend at times when I’m having busy days at work.

 

Busy days or not I still want a decent meal on the table for my family.

This recipe is for a 4-quart crockpot, halve it if your pot is smaller.

You may alter the ground meat as you please; sometimes I use all ground beef when I find a good sale but half beef/half pork is pretty tasty.

I serve spaghetti with crusty bread and a romaine salad.

A Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef

I finally discovered a method that produces a Perfect Eye of Round Roast Beef every time. One that’s cooked to my liking perfectly.

 

You can cook it to medium or even rarer in the center. The key is to use a well rounded and evenly shaped roast!

I like to use an eye of round roast.

The seasonings are up to you. I listed very basic seasonings, but I use different meat rubs at times, or whatever I’m in the mood for.

While there are not enough pan drippings to make gravy, the juices make a lovely au jus to accompany the beef.

This works for any size roast and couldn’t be easier.
