Celebrity Cook-Along, Bobby Flay!

Hey everyone-Welcome to the Celebrity Cook-Along! It was a beautiful day for grilling out, about 90 degrees with moderate humidity-great for Philly in July! I invited you to join me in making Bobby Flay's Grilled Rib Eye Steak with Chipotle Honey Glaze and Roasted Pepper Relish, a good choice!

Looking at the recipe HERE you might think it's a little involved but truthfully I only added a few pantry items to minced garlic and store bought roasted red peppers. Everything was mixed and ready to go in about 20 minutes. This whole meal could be on the table in no time.

Not bad considering the only thing I know about grilling is the drinks should be cold!

Side dish: I cut zucchini into 1/4" thick planks, drizzled with olive oil and liberally shook Montreal Steak Seasoning over them, let them sit for at least 15 minutes. Then grilled them as long as the steaks, flipped them at the same time too. I'd make them thicker next time.

Remember, it's very important to stay well hydrated in the summer...

Good help is hard to find folks!

Notes:

• I think the Chipotle Glaze is amazing-love it! I'll be making it as a dipping sauce and leaving out the oil from now on. I can't wait to add extra chipotle and dip grilled chicken or meatballs into it. 
• Personally, I don't think the peppers bring much to the party. Added to a side salad maybe, but I won't put them on the steak again. Actually, make them as written and serve on a toasted baguette as Bruschetta-perfect!!!
• Chipotle tip: I make piles of 1-2 leftover chipotles topped with the sauce on a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet and freeze them. Then store them in a zip top bag in the freezer for when I need them. 

Chipotle Glaze/Dip:

½ cup honey
1 tablespoon chipotle puree (or more)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons canola oil (leave out for the dip)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Whisk together the honey, chipotle puree, Dijon, oil and salt in a small bowl until combined.
