So obviously when anyone things of Nevada they think of Las Vegas and when they think of eating in Las Vegas they think of All-you-can-eat buffets.
Our buffet included the basics you would see on any buffet. I wanted to keep everything an appetizer size because we were decorating our Christmas tree at the same time. It is our family tradition to have an appetizer dinner (aka Pickies; aka Appy's; aka Mrs. Flax dinner, Mermaids movie anyone) while putting up our tree so this worked out perfectly. We had:
99-Cent Shrimp Cocktails
Steak Bites to stand in for Prime Rib
Grilled Mushrooms
Veggies
Summer Sausage - This was to fulfill another Christmas tradition
I filled the green dish with ice and then placed the shrimp on top in effort to make it look like a buffet chafing dish.
I used Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond's recipe for the steak bites. They were amazing. Butter and Steak. What could be better? To add on to the steak I also cooked up some button mushrooms in some butter too with a splash (or two, or three) of red wine. I have to say as we get closer to New Year's Eve those steak bites I have been on my mind.
It was a very delicious dinner. We all got to keep our money but I would have liked to catch Britney Spears residency show or the Blue Man group. ;)
Next, we head back to New England for a mapley dinner.
