ULTIMATE STEAK AND MUSHROOM SHOOTER SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Season the tenderloin with the granulated garlic and plenty of salt and pepper. Transfer to the wire-racked baking sheet and place on the middle rack in the oven. Roast low and slow until the internal temperature registers 120 degrees F, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Remove the tenderloin from the oven, cut off the butcher's twine and coat in the softened butter. Set the oven to broil. Broil each side until crusty and golden, about 30 seconds a side. Set aside to cool, reserving any juices for later.
• Slice the tenderloin as thinly as possible. We are looking for a smooth bite down here, so thin slices are key. Pour the accumulated juices over the slices and hit with more salt and pepper.
• Cut off the top crust of the boule about 1 inch down to create a lid. Hollow out the rest of the bread into a bread bowl. Smear the mustard over the bottom of the bread bowl. Next, spread with the Mushroom Duxelles. Then, add the sliced tenderloin; we are looking for a lot of height here, so ribbon those slices! Next comes a layer of baby spinach. Close with the top of the bread bowl and completely wrap in 3 layers of foil.
• Place a heavy wooden cutting board on top and use books, weights, giant cans, etc. to press down on the sandwich evenly. We are looking for maximum compression here, so 50 pounds is the goal. Just make sure the weight is distributed evenly. Press for a minimum of 4 hours at room temperature.
• Unwrap, slice into wedges and serve.
• Add the mushrooms, garlic and shallot to a food processor and pulse a few times until coarsely chopped.
• Heat the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until melted. Add the mushroom mixture and stir. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until the mushrooms begin to brown. Season with salt and pepper, deglaze with the sherry, then add the fresh thyme. Set aside to cool.

HANGER STEAK SANDWICH WITH BOURBON CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• For the glaze: Add the orange peel, bourbon, cherry juice and some black pepper to a small saucepan. Simmer until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Your pot may flambe from the bourbon, don't worry- just wait until the alcohol burns off. Once reduced, turn off the heat and whisk in the butter.
• Sprinkle the steak liberally with salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add a light coat of oil and place the steak in the pan. Cook the steak almost to desired doneness, depending on thickness, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn off the heat and glaze the steak on all sides in the pan while flipping. Remove the steak from the pan to rest.
• For the sandwich build: Pile some Bourbon Creamed Spinach on the bottom piece of the pretzel roll. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and place on top of the spinach. Top with some red onions and finish with the top of the roll. Repeat for the remaining sandwiches.
• Strain the thawed spinach in a colander and squeeze liquid out with a towel. Melt the butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the bourbon. Stir to combine, turn heat back on to medium and simmer 1 minute. Add the cream, and cook until the cream is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese and cook until melted, and then mix in the spinach to combine. Cover and cook over low heat until the spinach is tender, 8 to 10 minutes, and then season with salt and pepper.

STEAK JOINT CHICAGO CHEESE STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a little canola oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Sprinkle both sides of the rib eyes with granulated garlic, salt and pepper. Lower the heat to medium-high and place the rib eyes in the skillet without overcrowding. Sear the rib eyes until well browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the rib eyes and cook until medium/medium-rare, about 4 minutes. Set aside, loosely cover with foil and let rest. Mix the ricotta, Cheddar and provolone in a bowl and reserve.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sweat the onions until soft and slightly golden in color, about 10 minutes. Set aside. Thinly slice the rib eyes and set aside.
• Divide the onions in 4 piles. Top each pile with a quarter of the cheese mixture, a quarter of the rib eye and an open roll. Let the cheese melt and toast until everything is gooey. Scoop up with a spatula, flip right-side-up and top each with the giardinera. Serve.
