Made steak in the cast iron tonight. Strips, seasoned with S&P and basted with butter and garlic cloves mixture. Super tasty, but I gorged and have some regrets lol.
Made these bomb ass potatoes too:
3 lbs yukon gold potatoes (small ones - about 1.5 - 2 inches in diameter)
1 whole head of garlic, separated into cloves, skin on
3 sprigs fresh thyme
3 bay leaves
Shredded cheddar cheese
Olive oil
Kosher salt
Foil (enough to cover a sheet tray)
Wash potatoes
Fill large pot with enough cold water to cover potatoes plus 1 inch
Generously season with salt
Bring to boil
Reduce to simmer over MEDIUM heat and simmer for about 30 minutes (or just until fork tender -do not overcook)
Strain
In a separate bowl, add garlic, thyme, and bay leaves and ¼ cup olive oil and stir
Cover sheet tray with foil, drizzle with plenty of olive oil, and generously sprinkle kosher salt
Add potatoes to tray and smash down slightly, creating a flat surface on both sides of the potato
Pour over garlic/thyme/bay leaf/olive oil mixture evenly
Drizzle with olive oil again and generously season with more kosher salt
Place in oven at 425 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until the potatoes are crisp and brown
Remove and serve with shredded cheddar cheese
