Grillling Surf and Turf

First of all, buy the thickest, freshest, best form of beef you can find.  Filet Mignon, rib eye, strip loin  are always a good choice, but buy your meat from a Butcher. You have one life...don't skimp on bad steak that you need to marinate, season endlessly, etc. IF it is good meat, all it needs is a little salt and pepper. Don't poke it, hit it, rub it, NOTHING!  Leave it alone.  Don't mess with a good thing.

Add some nice lobster tails to the mix and enjoy a very simple, easy to grill week-day meal, that could also be served to guests out on your deck on the week-end....  ceasor salad ( my husbands recipe that he refuses to share- it is in his Will---but please don't shoot him for it!)  and a basic olive oil seasoned baked potato topped with garlic butter, shredded cheddar, minced onion, sour cream and bacon bit.

do this to your tails before grilling so they don't curl up. We used these skewers, soaked in water.

I like to add a bit of blue cheese on top of my steak...extra goodness!

Enjoy with a Meritage  full bodied Wine
