GRILLED SKIRT STEAKS WITH HAWAIIAN-STYLE TERIYAKI GLAZE AND GRILLED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Preheat a 2-burner cast-iron grill or two grill pans over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes.
• Drizzle the grapeseed oil over the steaks and sprinkle with salt. Place the steaks on the grill, seasoned-side down, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or to the desired doneness.
• Place the broccoli spears on the grill next to the steaks and cook for 4 minutes per side. Brush the steaks with some teriyaki glaze just before taking them off the grill. Let the steaks rest for about 8 minutes before slicing.
• Arrange the sliced steak and grilled broccoli on a serving platter and finish with additional teriyaki glaze. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and garnish with several sprigs of cilantro.
• Combine the pineapple juice, soy sauce, scallions, brown sugar, ginger, garlic and sesame oil in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until thick, about 20 minutes.

EMERIL'S "PANIOLO" (HAWAIIAN COWBOY) STEAK

• Sprinkle the thick onion slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon of Essence.
• Grill the steaks until medium-rare, about 6 minutes per side. At the same time, grill the onions (as though grilling a patty, so the rings stay together) until golden and char-marked by the grill, turning once.
• Remove the steaks from the grill and top with the grilled onions. Serve with the reduced marinade as sauce.

CROCK POT POLYNESIAN BEEF

Steps:

• In a gallon size ziploc bag, add season salt, paprika, and ground ginger. Shake bag to mix. Add stew meat to seasoning, close bag and shake until all pieces are lightly covered. In a large skillet, add olive oil. Heat pan over medium heat. Once pan is hot, add stew meat. This may require a few batches (it took me 3 batches to do all of the meat). Sear the beef on each side. DO NOT FULLY COOK. Just get a nice sear on it to seal in the flavor. Once meat has a nice color, transfer to crock pot. Repeat with remaining batches. Add to crock pot, garlic, pineapple with juice, bouillon cubes, vinegar, onions and Rotel.. Cook on low for 4 - 6 hours (depending on your crock pot), until beef is cooked through and tender. In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cornstarch, water and soy sauce. Pour this over the beef, stir and cook on high for 30 minutes - 1 hour, or until mixture thickens. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.
