Favorite Foods of Presidents

It’s President’s Day! As a lover of food, I want to know . . . what do the presidents of the greatest nation on Earth like to eat?

Above, you’ll see President Lyndon B. Johnson chowing down on ribs, but as a senator he liked to have a hamburger for lunch every day.

Dwight D. Eisenhower enjoyed beef stew – a man after my own heart. And Harry S Truman? Well-done steaks.

I’m on board with the steak part, but maybe ease up on the well-done aspect.

Click here to see more fascinating tidbits about the leaders of our nation and what they like/liked to eat.

And while you’re drooling over their favorite meals, have a happy President’s Day!

MY life does not include that! What am I doing wrong? Why was I not born Melissa Gilbert’s dog???

Check out the video to see it straight from her lips!

Tasty Top Sirloin

Today, class, we are going to focus on that beautiful cut we call the Top Sirloin.

Why?

A) It’s tasty.

B) It’s on sale here.

C) It’s a great Valentine’s Day meal idea.

D) All of the above.

Okay, you know the answer, but in case you’re running a little slow today – it’s D. 🙂

This cut is lean, firm and really flavorful. Plus, it’s GREAT for grilling.

You can check out more information about Top Sirloin here, plus info about every other cut of beef you could imagine.

Class dismissed, but your homework is to grill up a Top Sirloin and report back. Think you can do it?
