Mar 19thSteak and Stogie, Fleur De Las Antillas

The wife went out to do some volunteering.  I decided to light up the 2012 CA cigar of the year, the Fleur De Las Antillas Toro.  I thought it was good, but not CA #1 of the year good.  It had these bursts of white pepper I didn’t particularly enjoy, but the first and last third were very agreeable.

I said I’d grill up a T-Bone, so I figured why wait.  I didn’t feel like standing out in the snow, so I threw it in the pan.  Got a good sear on both sides, left it about rare, and just salted it, and shook a few peppers on it.  I also made some creamed spinach with mushrooms, shallots, garlic, and onion.  The t-bone was good, but it was no ribeye.
