Bourbon-Marinated Flank Steak

Ingredients:
1/4 cup bourbon
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup brown sugar
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds flank steak, trimmed of fat and sinew

Directions:
Combine bourbon, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, brown sugar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Place steak in a shallow dish or ziplock and rub marinade all over, coating it well. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Can be marinated up to 24 hours. Just be sure to cover and refrigerate.)

Once steak has marinated, heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Grill steak for 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium rare and remove to a cutting board to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

Season with additional salt and pepper, slice thinly across the grain, and serve.

I like steak and I like bourbon...so this is an excellent combination!

The perfect boiled egg.

Here's Pepin's method. Enjoy and let me know what you think.

1. Add water to a pot that will just cover the eggs and heat to boiling.

2. While water is warming up, take a thumb tack and pierce a small hole in the round end of each egg. (Yes, you heard me right...just do it. :-) ) If you hold the egg firmly in the left hand and pierce with the right, you should have no problem.

3. When the water is boiling add the eggs to the boiling water. You will see air coming out of the little hole.

4. Set timer for exactly 10 minutes. You can turn the heat down a tad so it's a "soft" boil, but you want them in this bath for the full 10 minutes.

5. Fill another bowl with water and add ice cubes.

6. After 10 minutes pour off the water and swirl the eggs in the empty pan to crack the shells... YES, crack 'em!

7. Dump the eggs in the ice bath for at least 8 minutes.

8. Peel the eggs under running water.

The eggs should be perfect. The outside firm not hard, the inside yellow and semi firm without any hint of blue around the yolk. The taste should be delicious.

If you go to the link you will not only see Pepin boiling the perfect egg, you will see him cook asparagus perfectly and a red pepper dip and potatoes au gratin...

I will have to try that ... sounds cool and always open to new ideas.

The way I was taught to make a perfect boiled egg was put the eggs in cold water and put on heat. As soon as the water comes to full boil wait one minute then turn off the heat. Leave the pan on the burner for a full 10 minutes then remove and rapidly cool with ice water. Eggs refrigerated can last for months and many that you buy are not fresh out of the chicken. Pick eggs that have an expiration date months away and they turn out better boiled. All the rest are just fine for scrambled or adding to cake or whatever but the best boiled eggs depend on how old they are.

Well, poi is a Hawaiian staple, it's taro mashed to a paste. Samoans, we just bake or boil the taro whole and it's a lot like potato just a little heavier starch. I like poi if I have Kalua Pork or Lomi Salmon

[Artemis]

I am fairly certain most of us don't really want to know what went into SOS.

Methinks I have seen the recipe in this thread.

[Skosh59]

I tried searching on SOS but got no matches

next step is to go through each page unless someone else posts it.
