Steak with Blue Cheese Compound Butter

This wonderful Blue Cheese Compound Butter takes a grilled steak to a whole other level. Compound butter is a mixture of butter and other ingredients to enhance flavor in various dishes. It can be made by whipping additional elements, such as herbs, spices or aromatic liquids, into butter. The butter is then reformed, usually in plastic wrap or parchment paper, and chilled until it is firm enough to be sliced. These butters can be melted on top of meats and vegetables, used as a spread or used to finish various sauces.

St. Augustine Marinade for Tri Tip

I went to my favorite butcher to buy some meat and they had a bunch of tri tips already marinaded in bags. There were 5 different options so I asked for the most popular, which is called St. Augustine Marinade for Tri Tip. It was delicious. The marinade is white wine,  orange marmalade, and Worcestershire sauce. Here is my version.

Instant Pot Wine Braised Beef Short Ribs

This recipe for Instant Pot Wine Braised Beef Short Ribs works really well in the Instant Pot. The beef gets fall-off-the-bone tender and has lots of flavor. I served it over a bed of Creamy Parmesan Polenta, but mashed potatoes or mashed cauliflower would also be good. I have also included the oven method.
