Grilled Bone-in Rib-Eye
Ingredients:
Directions:
Step 1
Preheat a grill to high heat.
Step 2
Place rib-eye steaks on a large platter and season with rub on all sides. Transfer seasoned steaks to the hot grill, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side for medium-rare, longer if desired. Remove steaks and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Grilled Broccoli
Ingredients:
Directions:
Step 1
Preheat grill to medium heat. Trim off fibrous bottom half of broccoli stem, then quarter broccoli head into small trees.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together oil, Worcestershire, soy sauce, ketchup, honey, and garlic. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add in broccoli and toss to coat. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Step 3
Place broccoli on grill and sprinkle lightly with more salt. Grill broccoli until knife-tender and slightly charred, flipping every 2 minutes and basting with any remaining sauce, 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle with Parmesan and more red pepper flakes, and serve with lemon wedges.
Charred Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients:
Directions:
Step 1
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Rub sweet potatoes with 2 Tbsp. oil and wrap tightly in foil—you can wrap them on their own or put 2 in each packet. Grill, turning every 5 minutes or so, until tender, 30–45 minutes. Unwrap and let cool slightly.
Step 2
Meanwhile, bring honey, vinegar, and a big pinch of kosher salt to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat (you can do this on the grill if you want), reduce heat, and simmer until just beginning to thicken, about 4 minutes. Keep warm.
Step 3
Cut sweet potatoes in half lengthwise. Rub cut surfaces with 1 Tbsp. oil total; season with kosher salt. Grill, cut side down, without turning, until lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and brush with honey glaze.
Step 4
Arrange sweet potatoes on a platter and drizzle with more glaze and remaining 1 Tbsp. oil. Season with sea salt and pepper.
Grilled Apple Crisp
Ingredients:
Directions:
Step 1
Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the apples to a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron skillet, filling it almost to the top. Combine the flour, oats, sugars, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Cut the butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using your hands, press the butter into the dry ingredients until it forms a coarse crumble. Sprinkle evenly over the apples.
Step 3
Place the skillet over indirect heat, cover the grill and cook until the apples are completely tender when pierced with a knife and the crumble is golden brown and crispy, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Step 4
(Alternatively, you can bake this in an 8-inch square cake pan in a 350 degrees F oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour.)

If you’re planning a get together with family and friends in your bubble, a Halloween themed charcuterie board is a great way to present treats for everyone to enjoy. Here are a few easy steps to help you get started.
Use what you have available. Wood charcuterie boards are our favourite but you could also use a wood cutting board or some other serving tray you may have on hand. The only caution is to make sure it’s a food-safe surface.
These boards are from our Viking Charcuterie Board collection available online and at select Sobeys stores in Atlantic Canada. Click here for more information.
We like to make a list of ingredients we want to include. We generally start every board with a hard cheese, a soft cheese or hummus, cured meats, pickled veggies and crackers. Then based on the theme, we add in colour and texture that matches. This is a Halloween theme so we need to think sweet and colourful. We’ll be looking to add candies, sweet dip like fluff, some colourful fruit, and even a little chocolate.
When planning our presentation we like to start by visualizing the board and the placement of vessels for dips, sauces, and juicy items. We like to have a selection of different containers to choose from and then we get to work figuring out where to place them. Everything else gets added around these items.
Because this is a sweet and savoury board, we are going to create a separation and have the meats and cheeses at one end and the sweets at the other. Our selection of crackers will create the border between them.
The next step is placing the meats and cheeses. Depending on the types of ingredients, you can be extra creative here. Think curves, lines, and piles.
