This is my Mom's favorite way to make steaks. She raves about these steaks all the time. We finally got a chance to try them a few weeks ago when we went down for a football game. I must admit, the steaks were fabulous! She marinated the steaks for a few hours in Dale's before she cooked them in an iron skillet.
This method is perfect for a weeknight treat. Chicken Legs will appreciate this method if once the weather cools off and he doesn't have to stand out in the cold to grill steak.
the steaks smelled so good - they were driving Max CRAZY!

Yum - BEEF, luv it.... You know I've been enjoying your chicken recipes, but I think I told you I preferred cow over bird.
I haven't tried them on an iron skillet - we have just started cooking mostly on iron - will have to try this! They look yummy - ps I linked to you today for a Versatile Blogger Award - thanks for making cooking fun! :)

You know I prefer my steaks on a hot cast iron grill grate, but these look good Steph. I've actually done them like this a few times. Shhh! Don't tell, I'll get my BBQ card revoked.
Poor Max.
