There is nothing more I love than a juicy steak.  As a kid growing up Sunday’s my Dad would cook up steaks on the grill, and my Mom would make a baked potato and salad to serve along side the steak.  It was always the same the meal and the type of steak, T-bone.  You see I was raised on red meat and I am still a huge fan, and am always finding delicious ways to serve it up.  These Blue Cheese Crusted Filets, are oh my lordy good.

Have you ever had blue cheese on steak?  It is this perfect little party of flavors.

  7. I love blue cheese on steak, it’s a topping my husband and I always use but that sauce is not something I’ve tried before. It sounds completely delicious. This sounds like a great “date night” dinner!

  11. I love bleu cheese but unfortunately I have celiac disease. Bleu cheese is not a true gluten friendly cheese. The recipe sounds out of this world!
