Notes

Innovative: The extra butter can be stored in the refrigerator and used stirred into cooked hot potatoes, pasta or rice to add flavour. It also works over grilled fish, pork, veal, chicken and lamb.

Tip: Avoid cutting into steaks and sausages when grilling, they will lose their juices when cooking. Giving steak adequate rest time will maximize their juiciness.

Beer Pairing Suggestions: A dark, full flavoured Ontario ale such as: Country Durham’s C’est What Rye Beer, Great Lakes Brewery’s Devil Pale Ale, Wellington Brewery’s Iron Duke Strong Ale.

Wine Pairing Suggestion: Ontario’s Grange of Prince Edward Vineyards & Estate Winery, Trumpour’s Mill 2006 Cabernet Merlot has lots of sweet fruit, vanillin and coffee with a balanced lingering finish.
