Christmas Eve dinner

[Brad Olson]

Since it was just the 2 of us for dinner Christmas Eve, I picked up what was either a small 2-bone rib roast or a big 2-bone rib steak. I made an herb paste for it and cooked it indirectly over charcoal; I just didn't feel like setting up the rotisserie for such a relatively small piece of meat. We didn't do anything special with the sides, although I did grill one special event type of item.

I guess I need to start thinking about Valentine's Day now...

Man, this Covid lock down must be getting to me, is it Christmas Eve again already?!?!

That's a fantastic looking piece of meat (raw and cooked pics are excellent)......probably made that lobster tail feel badly about itself!

My youngest has been cooking V-day dinner for my wife and I for a few years now. It's kind of fun.....we get dressed up, she makes up menus, etc. I'll drop the surf/turf hint, though.

Thanks, Rich! I probably could've shown the lobster a little more camera love...

Oh, and since you probably wondered but didn't ask: yes, this was Christmas Eve 2020.

Dad still foots the bill, though. Right?

For dinner, and the roses, and whatever else is require to make my wife feel special on V-Day.

Nice surf and turf there!

Nice fancy meal!
We used to have fondue and Dungeness crab for Christmas Eve dinner every year. We changed to shrimp and grits a few years back. So I guess we are close to surf and turf!
