The New Steak – Recipes for a Range of Cuts plus Savory Sides
The New Steak Recipes for a Range of Cuts plus Savory Sides
Steak is synonymous with big flavour, but home cooks often dismiss it as “eating out” food on account of the expense and care it takes to prepare the perfect tenderloin or strip. In this substantive take on steak entrees, Cree LeFavour shares approachable recipes for all-American, bistro, Far East, Tex- Mex, and Latin meals that are big on taste, convenience, and value. Using fresh ingredients and a variety of methods – sauteing, roasting, broiling, grilling, braising, and wok-frying – these recipes teach novices as well as experienced cooks how to cook steaks well.

5 Stars Sizzling and fun.
I love this cookbook! It has great simple BBQ recipes and the Truck Tacos alone are worth the book. The recipes are not just steak, but great combinations of meat, starch and greens. Lots of meals for the summer and summer parties.
5 Stars A Gem: The Best New Cookbook in a Long Time
This book is a gem, a collection of great offerings in a lovely package. The fine writing is a major treat, too. We’ve been giving Cree LeFavour’s cookbook “The New Steak” to everyone for birthdays and other occasions. One friend announced that he had taken it to be to read before falling asleep, so that he could savor the recipes, enjoy the photos, appreciate the excellent writing and perhaps influence his dreams. For us, it’s the best new cookbook in a very long time. We give it top marks.
5 Stars GREAT COOKBOOK!!!!!
I love this book!! The best part are all the side dishes — it’s so great to find something else to put on the plate besides a plain old baked potato and veggie. Some of them are simple and some are really exotic but so far they’ve all been spectacular!! I bought this book looking for ways to flavor up our weekend steak on the grill nights because my husband likes his steak cooked past well done. I didn’t expect a “steak” book to include all these amazing side dishes. I love it, highly recommended!!!!!!
5 Stars For all you meat lovers!
This has become my favorite meat cook book. The recipes are easy to follow and Ms. LeFavour has come up with uniquely creative and tasty side dishes. Aside from covering the traditional cuts, she focuses on some of the less popular, but tasty and inexpensive cuts, such as hanger steak, flank steak, strip steak and flat iron steak. We just bought seven more copies to give away to friends and family over Christmas.
Great recipes to fit every budget!
