OK... time to break in a new thread
I bought a couple of 14-day aged Angus strips for tonight's dinner. I used some garlic-infused EVOO (crushed garlic in EVOO for an hour or so) and brushed the steaks with it and then seasoned them with sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. They were grilled to rare for me and medium rare for Amy. I also halved a couple of sweet taters and brushed them with the garlic EVOO and some Lawry's seasoned salt and cinnamon sugar and cooked them on the grill. Sauteed shrooms with Cruz Bay Grill Rub topped off the plate.
Oh yeah... can't forget the Mount Gay and Diet Coke!

Looks great Ron!!!
While steaks are being mentioned, they are GREAT on the grill with the British Virgin Islands Caribbean Seasoning that I got at St. John Spice, nothing else, just sprinkle it on them before you put them on the grill.
For my dinner, we had fresh redfish with Cruz Bay Grill Rub on top grilled on the pit and Liamsaunt's devilled shallot butter with a little less of the spices because redfish is so mild. Forgot to take pics, but I already posted one before of the same dish.
What would I do without all of this food porn to inspire me??? Thanks again everyone for motivating me.

p.s. too tired to do vegetables and had leftover some kind of rice I made but couldn't even remember what it was.

Ron, that looks so good! I'm going to try some sweet taters that way! Last night we had friends over and I made bbq shrimp (actually done in the oven) with some seasoning that nothintolose sent me, tri-tips marinated in CBGR and done on the grill, parsley new potatoes, green salad and french bread. I didn't take any pictures, but everything turned out completely awesome. Oh yeah, and we had Painkillers made with one shot of Cruzan Mango and one shot of Cruzan Coconut - YUM!. A good time was had by all

I'm almost out of CBGR so when I reorder I'll add on some of the BVI seasonings.

hmm...this thread could be dangerous...I take a picture of my dinner every night!
I have the day off today so tonight I am making John a pork roast--it's brining right now in some red pepper flakes, sugar, salt, juniper berries. Later I am going to slather it with mustard and make a green peppercorn sauce to go with. I'm also making roasted shallots, a celeriac gratin, and some spinach. I don't eat pork so I am making myself some roasted garlic chicken sausage with an apple-onion compote. I'll post a picture later.
Here's a recent chicken I made thanks to a package from Elizabeth (nothintolose)--it's injected with creole garlic butter sauce and covered in creole seasoning. It was good!

And another Elizabeth-inspired dish I made a couple of weeks ago...shrimp and grits:

It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.
