The Beezo Bowl: BBQ Steak Sandwich!

Hello all. With the beauty of spring surrounding us, I have started cooking up again. That, and it is spring break, so I have excess time on my hands!

For lunch today, I made myself a steak sandwich. Eye of round steak was on sale at Meijer this week. That was my poison!

I started with 1 TBS flour, a little salt, and a little black pepper. After my steak came to room temperature, I dredged it in the flour mixture. (I read online that letting your steak come to room temperature before cooking helps it to be more juicy).

Then, I fried it in a little pam on a skillet. (It got a bit smokey, and YES, my fire alarm went off! Oops). A minute or two on either side was all that it took to cook the steak, as it was a very thin slice. I dropped some frozen, pre-sliced onions into my flour mixture and tossed them around, then got rid of the extra flour. Once my steak was happily resting on my plate to be eaten later, I threw the onions (about 1/4 cup) and 1 TBS bacon crumbles in the skillet to brown up. I topped the steak with a slice of reduced fat muenster cheese, plopped the onions and bacon on top, poured on a little bit of Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce and put it all inside a toasted English Muffin that had a bit of mayo on it. I served it with asparagus (pop off the ends and steam for 7 minutes), carrot sticks, and Special K cracker chips - sour cream and onion flavored. Yum!
