Mari and I ground a whole rib roast and made some great hamburgers. Much better flavor and consistency than the ground chuck we have been using. Burgers like this are $20+ dollars in NYC.

Spring Grilling

We made rib steaks grilled over charcoal on Sunday and we had a very good salad with home made Dijon mustard based dressing Mari created. The broccoli rabe was steamed and finished with garlic and butter. We roasted the beets and chilled them. Then they were topped with a chopped dill dressing that Mari created as well.
