Bone In Cowboy Rib Eye With Pinto Wild Mushroom Ragout And Red Chile Onion Rings Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix salt, sugar, chipotle powder, pepper and garlic. Rub vigorously into the steak. Place the steak in a sealed container and refrigerate overnight. Place steak over medium high hickory smoke fire and sear for 10 minutes on each side. Remove from heat and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch slices. Place on arugula and add ragout. Top steak with horseradish sour cream.
• Tomato and Wild Mushroom Ragout: In a saucepan place 1 teaspoon oil, garlic and shallots. Lightly brown. In a large bowl, toss tomatoes, mushrooms, 1 teaspoon oil and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Place tomatoes, skin side up, on medium hot grill for 8 minutes. Roughly chop tomatoes and add to the mushrooms.
• Horseradish Sour Cream: In a medium mixing bowl combine all ingredients. Mix well.

Steps:

• Soak the porcini in 3 cups hot water until very soft, about 30 minutes.
• Coat a large wide saucepan generously with olive oil and bring to medium-high heat. Add the onion and red pepper and season with salt; cook until the onion is soft and aromatic, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Add the fresh mushrooms, season with salt, and sauté until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the wine and continue cooking until reduced by half, 5 to 6 minutes more.
• Using your hand, scoop the porcini out of the soaking water, being careful not to disturb the water-you want the crud to stay settled. Put the porcini in a food processor, ladle in about 1/2 cup of the soaking liquid, and purée to a very smooth paste.
• Add the porcini paste, 2 cups of the porcini water, and 1 cup of the stock to the pan; toss in the thyme bundle and the bay leaf. Taste and season with salt if needed. Bring the liquid to a boil (BTB) and reduce to a simmer (RTS). Simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, adding more stock if needed; this sauce should be saucy but not soupy. Remove the thyme bundle and bay leaf before serving. Serve tossed with pasta or gnocchi or over polenta.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and stir until beginning to soften, about 6 minutes. Add Port and broth and boil until liquid is syrupy, about 10 minutes. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates.
• Bring mushrooms to simmer. Add cream and tarragon and boil until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mushrooms over steaks. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• For the cowboy butter: Well in advance, make the cowboy butter. Place the softened butter in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Whip the butter until it's fluffy. Add the parsley, red pepper flakes, black pepper, garlic, lemon zest and the juice of half the lemon. Mix it until it's totally combined, scraping the sides as needed. Add more parsley, more lemon juice, more pepper or salt if you'd like. Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap and scoop the butter mixture in a long strip down the middle of it. Carefully pull one side of the plastic wrap over the butter, squeezing it gently to form it into a log. Continue to roll the log of butter into a roll. When it's all rolled up, twist the ends (like a piece of candy) until they become very taut (this means the butter is pressing together inside the plastic to form a cohesive roll). Place the roll of butter into the fridge so it will harden, or into the freezer if you need to speed along the process. For the steaks: Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the steaks. Melt the butter in a heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. When it's melted and golden brown, sear the steaks for about 45 seconds per side. Set in the oven to finish, about 3 minutes. Lay a thick slice of cowboy butter on top of each steak so it will begin to melt. Serve within 5 minutes. Other uses for cowboy butter: Stir into cooked pasta, lay a pat on grilled chicken or fish, stir it into rice or spread on crusty French bread.
