Here's what you get:


Yukon Gold potatoes 
Scallion 
Brussel sprouts 
Sour cream 
Ranch steak 
Beef stock concentrate 
Dijon mustard 
McCormick Grill mates brown sugar bourbon seasoning

The potatoes:

After boiling a pot of water the potatoes were cooked for about 20 minutes. These would be finished off with half of the sour cream and half a tablespoon of butter before adding half the scallion greens.

The protein:

After seasoning the steak with the McCormick Grill make brown sugar bourbon seasoning a drizzle oil is heated up in a non-stick pan. The steaks were cooked for 4 minutes per side. Once the steaks are cooked they were set aside to rest.

The brusselsprouts:

The oven was preheated to 425°.

Brussel sprouts were rolled and a little bit of oil salt and pepper and roasted for 18-22 minutes.

The sauce:

To make the sauce, the scallion whites were cooked in a little bit of oil and the rest of the McCormick seasoning was added to the pan the stock concentrate was stirred into the pan along with a quarter cup of vegetable broth. At the end the mustard and sour cream or mixed into the saucepan.

The plate:

The sauce in this one was really strong and went well with both the steak and mashed potatoes. Since you can get the seasoning pretty easily this would be a good one to try with a different veggie and meat lineup.
