Ribeye Steak with Raspberry Chipotle Blue Cheese Sauce

with Baked Three Cheese ALFREDO Mac N Cheese with Sun Dried Tomatoes

Steak

Prepare your favorite cut of steak.  I like to punch holes all through it with a fork to help tenderize it.  Rub it with one of my steak rubs. and set aside.  I like to leave it room temp for at least an hour before cooking.  3 hours is perfect in my opinion.

Keep the pot warm from cooking the noodles and put all of the above ingredients in there except the Alfredo Sauce, and let it melt.  As it melts, stir from time to time.  When it's about half melted, stir in the Alfredo and mix well.   Timing is not very important here so don't stress of when you add everything.  Just get it in there and melted.  You can put the pot on a low heat if you wish.

Preheat oven to 350.  Pour the melted Mac N Cheese in an oven proof skillet.

Bake for 10 minutes!

Prepare you charcoal or gas grill for the steaks.

Place the steaks on the direct heat, season side down first.  Cook for about 4 minutes. Flip the steak and spoon a small amount of the Raspberry Chipotle Blue Cheese Sauce over it.  

Cook for about 4 minutes.  Flip and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes or until it's the desired doneness.

Spoon more of the sauce over the cooked steak and enjoy!
