brOiled halibut steaks

Whenever I go to Alaska to visit my family I always try to make a stop at the Sourdough Mining Company to get their broiled halibut steaks… hold on…I have to go wipe the drool off my chin just from thinking about it…

The way they broil and season the halibut steaks is perfect, and to call them steaks is no lie. They are thick and meaty like any beef steak but so much better for you. I would take broiled halibut any day over fried fish & chips.

They also have these amazing corn fritters that taste of honey with large sweet bursting corn throughout each bite- they are the best I’ve had anywhere. If you are ever in Anchorage make a stop at the Sourdough Mining Company and order some. You won’t be disappointed!

This is my take on their broiled halibut steaks that literally take 6 minutes to cook.

beef tips and nOOdles

The ultimate comfort food for me is my grandmother’s beef tips and noodles.

Try out my updated version of her recipe that is slow cooked for 8 hours and is like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket.

Searing the beef and slow cooking it for several hours in a red wine and beef broth gives a beautiful depth of flavor that will make you go back for a second bowl.

I use my Fagor multi cooker for this recipe but you can alter to use in an Instant Pot, or any slow cooker. If your slow cooker doesn’t have a browning or simmer function you can sear the roast in a skillet before adding to your slow cooker. No need to run out and purchase a multi cooker if you don’t have one (although I really like mine). Use what you have in your kitchen already. Any slow cooker will work…the key to this recipe is the 8 hours of cooking on low to make the meat fork tender and fall apart when you shred it.

magic milk mint brOOkies

Nothing goes together better than cookies and milk, except maybe brownies and milk.

This recipe combines the best of both worlds with a hint of mint that will make your glass of milk explode!

No, seriously…no joke…my milk exploded! I lifted my milk jug to pour a small amount into the batter and it hit my cabinet, which made the milk shoot out and up all over me, my counters, my floor-everywhere! I’ve never seen milk spray upwards the way that it did- it literally rained milk!

My husband got a good laugh when he came to see what my yelp was all about.

These cookies were wort it though.
