Father's Day Cookout
Steak, cheese, beer - what else would dad want?
user ratingIf Father’s Day means firing up the grill in your house, then read on to get the best of the world of barbecue. Pete Marczyk and Barbara Macfarlane of Marczyk Fine Foods in Denver, Colo., dish on the perfect menu to celebrate dad, from specialty cheeses to a recipe for their award-winning hummus for complementing a big, juicy, grilled steak.—Nicole Potenza Denis
Main Course
Steak
Marczyk recommends buying the best quality steak you can find; just adjust the cut to fit your budget. He calls Niman Ranch about the best you can find in the states, and recommends the porterhouse—it’s big and important, just like your dad. If you want some added flavor, rub it with Char Crust Original Hickory Grilled rub.
Cheese Plate
Something Old, Something New
Rogue Smokey Blue: A hearty California blue cheese smoked over hazelnut shells.
Belletoile Brie: Buttery and fresh triple cream that’s easy on the palate and the wallet.
Country Castle: Limburger from Wisconsin: “The only American-made Limburger,” Marcyzk notes.
