Soon enough Memorial Day will be upon us. It’s time to honor those who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice and enjoy some family time.

And family time ALWAYS includes food. It’s just a given.

My Memorial Day feast absolutely must include steaks, steakburgers, all-beef hot dogs and brats.

People will revolt if not.

But the variety of steaks is where I can get creative. I like to serve an array of meats from Filet Mignon and Kansas City Strip Steak to Wagyu Beef. Who could complain about that?

In my backyard, there’s always something for everyone. And that means everybody’s happy.

I can’t think of a better way to spend a holiday!

Do you like to go all out and pamper your mom on her special day? How about cooking something delicious she’ll love this Mother’s Day?

Enjoy perusing these Mother’s Day recipes to find her favorite dishes.

You can never go wrong with steaks – filet mignon is a mom favorite. Try these delicious filet recipes like Crab Stuffed Filet Mignon. Then add some delicious Twice Baked Potatoes and you’re on your way to a complete meal she’ll adore.

Beef Wellington is a filet-based entrée that’s tucked away in a flaky crust. Try this Beef Wellington recipe for a real treat! A bonus to all this cooking? YOU get to enjoy it, too!

Have fun showing Mom all the love she deserves this Mother’s Day!

April is Couple Appreciation Month. I take this to mean we should all appreciate couples and if you’re one half of a couple, appreciate your other half.

The way we do that in my house? Food! Good food.

Namely steaks.

Now appreciating your partner might look like filet mignons to you, Porterhouse steaks to your neighbor or ribeyes to your mother-in-law.

However you see it, steaks are the way to go.

Dinner for two with exceptionally grilled steaks and maybe some candles flickering is basically the international language of appreciation and love.

Am I right?

Don’t let this month pass without some couple appreciation in your life. You – and your other half – will be thankful!
