Prepare the potatoes for the salad. Start simmering the barbeque sauce. Prepare the steak. When the sauce is done and there is space on the grill for the steak, start grilling the steak. As it cooks and then eventually rests, toss the potato salad and chop up the Apricot Celery Salad. Serve the sauce smeared across the steak with the salads on the side.
Potatoes are grilled and tossed with a lemon yogurt dressing and a handful of greens. When the acidic yogurt hits the hot potatoes, a slight curdling effect occurs with little globs of flavor nicely distributed throughout. Use this simple recipe as a base for adding more veggies as available.
Sweet, tangy with a touch of bite from the fresh ginger. Blackberries settle nicely into this sauce, but other berries may work as well… raspberries, cranberries, fresh currants. Just adjust the sweetness to taste. Use it as a marinade or serve drizzled on chicken, steak or bison.
The recipe calls for Rib-Eye which is a lovely, slightly marbled steak. When grilling, a steak with a higher fat content is a good choice as you are less likely to overcook it because the fat can create a barrier. If you are selecting a pasture-raised, grass-fed and/or grain-finished steak the fat content tends to be a bit lower then the meat coming from caged feed-lot cattle giving yet another delicious reason to select a cut with a bit more fat.
The crunch of the celery against the creamy sweetness of the apricots is delightful. Try this salad when you are ready to branch out of the ordinary green salad and you have a few apricots needing attention. Other stone fruits, such as peaches may work as well, but I have yet to try it.
