Special Steak Dinner ideas?

Alright I am brand new, so new that half of these abreviations still don't make sense to me, but i'm slowly figuring it out! Alright so next week we will have been married a month (told you i was a true newbie) and my H absolutely LOVES steak. SO i was just wondering if anyone knows any special way to marinate, cook, serve with ____, whatever - ANY ideas would be helpful! Thanks!

I rub mine with about 2tbsp brown sugar, 2tsp of cumin and chili powder, 1tsp salt and pepper and a tablespoon of olive oil then broil it in the oven or grill. I usually serve it with shrimp (sauteed in olive oil, garlic and a little bit of lime juice), yellow rice and black beans.

If you guys like bleu cheese I like to make a bleu cheese butter which is just a combination of butter, bleu cheese and green onions or chives....serve a dollop at room temperature on your steaks....yum! I'm hungry just thinking of it!

Be kind to unkind people...they need it the most.

Garlic mashed potatoes (with roasted garlic) make a great side.

DH and I also like to cook the steak on the stove with half butter/half olive oil.  I season the steak, cook it, and while it is resting I cook up mushroom and onions in the pan with the drippings etc-so good.

I have a recipe for steak with red wine sauce in my blog that is really great.  I've also seen rave reviews for Giada's Filet with Balsamic Vinegar Reduction and Goat Cheese.

I play around and switch up the marinades but my husband loves it topped with grilled shrimp or lump crab. I recommend olive oil parmesan whipped potatoes as a side. Instead of adding milk or cream to the potatoes, just add some olive oil, salt, and some freshly grated parm. Mmm..

Welcome!
