You’ve dreamed about it all week: the prime porterhouse
patiently waiting in your butcher’s case for you to bring
home wrapped in brown paper. You can’t wait to fire up the
grill, season the well-marbled red meat, and slap it over
the hot coals. You can hear the sizzle as it cooks, smell
the tantalizing aroma; you can practically taste the
perfectly seared, juicy steak. You never intend to overcook
it, but sometimes you do, ruining a thick, expensive steak. Never fear. Morton’s, The Steakhouse shares the secrets that
have made its name synonymous with fine steakhouse dining
for twenty-seven years to ensure that the home cook’s steak
turns out exactly as he imagines it. Morton’s Steak Bible
offers indispensable tips, steakhouse lore, and more than
100 irresistible recipes perfect for meat lovers, grillers,
and fans of their seventy restaurants worldwide. Before divulging Morton’s recipes for every cut from filet
mignon and T-bone to skirt steak and ground sirloin,
Morton’s Steak Bible starts at the very beginning, providing
excellent tips on how to cook like a steakhouse: what to
look for when selecting meat, how to cook it on a grill or
under a broiler, and of course, how to time your masterpiece
to perfection. There are also “Celebrity Clips” sprinkled
throughout, amusing anecdotes about visits to Morton’s by
its most famous guests, including Frank Sinatra, Tiger
Woods, Queen Latifah, and Jackie Gleason. In addition to world-famous steak recipes, Morton’s Steak
Bible includes chapters featuring everything you’ll need to
round out your table, such as the Key Lime Mortini and
Smoked Salmon Pinwheels in “Cocktails and the Food We Eat
with Them”; Salad Niçoise with Pan-Seared Tuna and Velvet
Lobster Bisque in “Salads and Soups”; Baked Lemon-Oregano
Chicken and Lamb Chops with Baked Apples in “Other
Steakhouse Favorites”; Creamed Spinach and Hash Brown
Potatoes in “Side Dishes”; and Morton’s legendary Hot
Chocolate Cake and Upside-Down Apple Pie in “Desserts.” With 3.3 million guests dining at its upscale restaurants
throughout the United States, Canada, and Asia every year,
Morton’s has clearly earned its place as the authority on
all things steak. Beautifully illustrated throughout with
vibrant full-color photographs, Morton’s Steak Bible is the
definitive guide to steakhouse fare and will instantly
become a coveted addition to the home of any meat lover or
grilling aficionado.
