BBQ Bison Ribeye Steak With Alaska Crab

Ingredients
  

  • Bison ribeye steaks
  • Crab
  • Potatoes
  • Veggies
  • Montreal steak spice
  • Seasoning salt
  • Garlic powder
  • BBQ sauce
  • Lemon juice
  • White wine
  • Butter

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your BBQ. While it's warming up, season your meat and prep your potatoes. Trim off any excess fat and score the meat with a fork. Use your fingers to grind the steak spice and seasoning salt. Sprinkle the garlic powder and then push it all into the meat with the fork. Spray it down with veggie spray to keep it from falling off on the BBQ. Do this to both sides of the steaks.
  • In a large pot, put in the crab legs (they can still be frozen). Pour in enough water to cover them and add a squeeze of lemon juice and about 1/3 cup of white wine. Turn on to high heat.
  • Prep the potatoes by stabbing them down each side, 4 to 5 times with a fork. This will let the steam escape as they are cooking in the microwave.
  • A very wise chef once told me about grilling/BBQ — spray the meat, not the grill! Spray down the meat again and place it on the grill. Set your potatoes on high for about 4 minutes in the microwave. Go back out and turn the meat to get those nice crossed black char lines.
  • When the microwave is done, insert your frozen veggies and set again for about 3 minutes. Go back outside, spray down the meat and flip it. Pour your favourite BBQ sauce on and evenly spread it.
  • Put the potatoes back into the microwave after turning them over and set for another 2-3 minutes, depending on how firm they feel. Go back to the BBQ and flip the meat again, saucing the other side. Put about a heaping tablespoon of butter into separate ramekins for each plate and microwave until it is fully melted. These are for dipping the crab meat into.

Notes

You may have to put the veggies back in the microwave again for a couple of minutes. By this time your crab will be boiling nicely and finished. Bring the bison in and plate along with the crab, potatoes and veggies. Open the potatoes and lightly salt and pepper, then add butter. Sour cream, bacon and chives on the table for topping the potatoes and you're all set. You’ll notice that I fried up the bison trimmings on the BBQ for the dog. He loved that!
A truly northern, healthy and delicious meal!
