New York strips with shrimp and apple dumplings.
This dinner was for pops and what pops wants pops will get right?!
Dad wanted steak and shrimp..and he left it up to me to figure out the rest. OK then can do!
Plus this was his first pellet fired steak..he was impressed!
Alright let's start the show.
I needed 45 minutes to cook dessert so that went into the MAK first. I used wine soaked oak pellets on everything with the MAK set to 385 for dessert and the veggies.
First up is preparing the apple dumplings. I cut the apples into quarters, peeled and wrapped the quarters in the dough. Placed em into a buttered baking dish and covered them with a butter,sugar,cinnamon and vanilla mixture. Lastly I poured 12 ounces of grapefruit soda over the top and in the MAK they went. I used to use mountain dew for this but I like the grapefruit soda better..not as sweet.
While the dumplings are cooking I prepped the shrimp and veggies.
The shrimp were peeled and I made a mixture of parkay and little Louie's seasoned garlic salt and black pepper.
The asparagus got some parkay and little Louie's dessert gold.
The corn was grilled au naturale..
The dumplings are done! Dang these smell so good!
