I made the HadBurger for me and my family on Father’s Day. I am going to name these after each instantiation of the meal I cook, much like WrestleMania, hence HadBurgerIII! What a wonderful gift to me. I went all out on toppings for this execution – grilled prosciutto, oven-roasted Nueske’s Bacon, thickly sliced beefsteak…

Whole Filet Mignon 🥩
The whole filet or chateaubriand as I knew it growing up was the fancy dish served at high-end hotel restaurants or country clubs, not that I frequented either very much. With French origins (but of course), the Larousse Gastronomique indicates that the dish chateaubriand was created by the namesake’s personal chef, Montmireil, for the Vicomte, François-René de Chateaubriand, at that time…
HadBurger II 🍔
I had the privilege of sharing my super great friend and business partner Glenn’s birthday with him and his family at Casa Curtis. He suggested that we cook at his house, and I offered to make him something from the CookCookEatEat catalog. He had heard about the #hadburger for some time and suggested that we…
Dry Rub Ribs 🍖
Ribs are an American original, and few things speak the essence of summer, BBQs, gatherings, and friendship like a great rack of ribs. This preparation is for a dry rub style, technically not BBQ as there is no sauce, and these ribs are grilled. Ingredients All purpose dry rub – tend to make the rub…
Grilled Caesar Salad 🥬
I first had a grilled Caesar salad about 15 years ago. I found the concept quite novel, but was amazed by the crunch, flavor, texture of the romaine lettuce halves. This dish really opened my eyes on new takes and preparations on traditional dishes, especially the use of a grill to make salad. Since that…
Dungeness Crab Benedict 🦀
Few brunch items are more Northwest authentic cuisine than a classic Dungeness Crab Benedict. This take on a traditional brunch with a flair of Seattle seafood is a signature dish – just ask Tom Douglas who launched his first restaurant Etta’s inspired by the crab cake. Preparation See my recipe for Crab Cakes and mash…
Arugula Salad and Flank Steak 🥩🍅🥬
This is my take on the Mailbu Farm Arugula Salad and Flank Steak Recipe. I have been inspired by the Ranch Malibu wellness resort and retreat and a week of healthy eating, yoga, and non-drinking sounds like a great way to reset the body and mind. Ingredients Baby arugula Cherry tomatoes, grape tomatoes, heirloom cherry…
NY Strip Steak 🥩
Steak is one of my favorite thing to grill and eat. I could probably dedicate an entire site to the topic. You will definitely come across more postings, preparation, and recipes for a variety of cuts on Cook Cook Eat Eat. This posting is for New York Steak or NY Strip Steak. It’s probably become…
Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus
Prosciutto wrapped asparagus is one of my favorite dishes to serve, and eat, especially in summer. It’s a fun side, that one can eat with your fingers while grilling! I like to serve it with almost everything, especially steak, and it’s a great component for a grilled vegetable medley. I like to finish the dish…
Radish Sprout Salad 🌱
My radish sprout salad was an attempt to up-level my presentation of food as well as the flavor profiles of dishes I was preparing. The salad is composed of radish sprouts tossed with a homemade vinaigrette which I use on many dishes, complimented with organic blueberries and a poached egg. I love how the richness…
