Steak With A Peach Blue Cheese Butter

blue-cheese-butter

 

 
Just another week and craving red meat with a kick. Was thinking something different than the standard marinated steak. Decided to take an easy garlic herb butter and kick it up a notch. Steak With A Peach Blue Cheese Butter.

 
Ingredients:

 
  • 1 lb flank steak
  • 3 tbs butter softened
  • 2 tbs blue cheese crumbles
  • 3 slices peaches diced
  • 1 clove garlic diced
  • Salt/pepper

 
1. Take softened butter and place in a bowl.

2. Mix in diced up garlic clove, blue cheese crumbles, and sliced peaches.

3. In a piece of tinfoil form the butter mixture into a log, wrap, and place in freezer for roughly 30 minutes. Remove about 20 minutes before cooking steak and place at room temperature.

4. Cook steak however you like it. I like a little herb rub and cooked only to rare/medium rare.

5. Take a couple slices of the butter and let melt over top of your steak.

 
This steak butter combo was great. The garlicky butter with addition of saltiness and distinct flavor from the blue cheese and the sweetness of the peaches all compliment each other perfectly.

Peach Drumpcake





Peach-Cake

 

 


     Here's a funny story, was at the river with my friend and had brought a bag of fresh Doughnut Peaches I bought at my local grocery store. They look like little doughnuts, (given the name), and are full of delicious flavor. Sweet, soft, and perfect. We were talking about how to incorporate them into a fantastic dessert. So, we came up with this great combination of a dump cake with a crumble topping and gave it the name; drumpcake. Quick, easy, and so so good. Peach Drumpcake

 






Ingredients:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 fresh doughnut peaches
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 tbs cinnamon
  • Powdered sugar
  • Milk


1. Make the cake mix according to the box; Combine mix, eggs, water, and oil and mix together until smooth.



2. Cut up the peaches into bite size pieces and mix into the cake mix. Cook according to box.



3. Meanwhile in a little sauce pan over medium high heat melt the butter. Mix in the brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon. Combine until a chunky sauce has formed.


4. Just as the cake is finished, let it cool for a bit then spread the oat mixture over top.


5. Combine some powdered sugar and milk to make an icing and pour over the cake. Serve.
