TAILGATING RECIPES FROM LONGHORN STEAKHOUSE


Recently I was approached by LongHorn Steakhouse to share grilling/tailgating recipes developed by their executive chefs.

I love a good steak and my idea of a good cut of beef…filet mignon.  This recipe adds special mushrooms and red wine Bordelaise sauce to really impress your guests.

 I know, I know…We are talking about a tailgate…

But remember many of you will be homegating and what could be more special than serving filets with this divine mushroom and bordelaise sauce?

And don’t worry if you can’t find all 3 kinds of mushrooms…use what you can find at your local grocer!

You can roast the mushrooms and make the bordelaise sauce a little ahead of time.  Then heat after grilling your perfectly done (meaning medium rare) steaks.

The chefs at LongHorn Steakhouse must have been thinking of me when they dreamed up this recipe.

Ingredients I love and what could be better than serving it up in a cast iron skillet?

Potatoes

  • 9 small to medium red potatoes, scrubbed
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Bacon Vinaigrette

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoon chopped parley
  • 2 tablespoons bacon fat
  • Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Garnish

  • ¼ cup blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onion
  • 3 strips chopped bacon

Potatoes

  1. Clean and oil your grill grates, heat to 500 degrees F.
  2. Add potatoes to a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil.
  3. Boil potatoes for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.
  4. Drain potatoes and allow water to fully evaporate from the skin. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slightly press down on the potato to pop them open and create a flat surface to grill.
  5. Gently drizzle both sides of the potatoes with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Place potatoes on the preheated grill to get desired grill marks on both sides of the potatoes.
  7. Remove from the grill and shingle on a serving platter.

Bacon Dressing

  1. Cook bacon strips until crispy. Remove bacon from pan and save the bacon fat.
  2. In a large mason jar or container with a tight fitting lid, combine all the ingredients for the dressing and shake until well combined.
  3. Pour dressing over shingled potatoes.
  4. Garnish: with chopped bacon, blue cheese crumbles and sliced green onions.

 For those of you who are not big Blue Cheese fans…I substituted Boursin cheese with garlic and herbs, crumbled.

Delicious!

If boiling then grilling the potatoes are not in your game plan, simply toss the potatoes in the olive oil, salt and pepper.  Roast in the oven at 350 degrees until tender.  Transfer to cast iron skillet and follow the above directions for dressing and toppings.  The beauty of this recipe…can be served hot at home or at room temperature at a tailgate.
