Grilled Ribeye with Onion and Blue Cheese Sauce

I hadn't planned on posting this recipe at all (hence the pitiful pictures. . .) but it was so stinkin' good that I thought you might enjoy a little Memorial Day splurge too!

A few years ago, my hubby called me yesterday while I was at Publix hoping I'd bring home some good meat to grill, so when I noticed the Ribeye Steaks on sale for $7.99 per lb. (regularly $12.99 per lb.), I decided they were worth the splurge. And oh my goodness . . . they were.

He found this recipe over on the Pioneer Woman, and it was better-than-a-steakhouse-restaurant good.

We cooked the steaks on the grill instead of on the stovetop, but other than that we followed her directions pretty closely. After making it, we decided that next time we'll add mushrooms maybe as well to the onion sauce . . . yummmm (seriously, this is some heaven-sent goodness!)

While it's not an incredibly penny pinched meal, you can find most of the items on sale this time of year – so here you go!
