When my cousin Khanh from California and I get together, we like to cook. The day after Thanksgiving, we went to HEB to cook dinner and they had a special on Ribeyes. Now typically, I ask them to cut me 1 1/2" thick steaks, but Khanh got the bright idea and told the guy to cut us 2-2" thick cuts. When he handed us our order we realized we may have over ordered (we may have been hungry when we went to the store)
Side Story: They had put the 2 pieces of steak on their scale and rang it up and it came out to be $130 for 2 steaks! I was on the phone with one of the Doctors I work with discussing his office space and my jaws dropped. The guy had forgotten to put in the sales price which dropped it down to about $50. I mean i knew it was not going to be cheap, but $130 for 2 steaks!
Anyways, as you can see the picture below, these steaks are the size of a roast and took up a whole pan each. We had seared it off with a Thyme and Garlic infused butter and finished it off in the oven. Again, the Red Wine came out to make a Red Wine Sauce. Side item was Roasted Asparagus and Garlic Bread.
Each Piece was a little over 2 1/2 Pounds.
