Someone(deguerre) hinted to me that Surf-n-Turf sounded like an Aussie thing, so I thought I might as well throw in here........WOW, two throwdown entries in one day.
Anyway, here was the original thread I posted.

That looks fantastic!:hungry:
I always thought the toads WERE the hole!:noidea: Always learning something new.
I honestly don't know what is toad and what is hole. It was more fun to think of the sausages as the the toads so that is my story.
I'm sure someone who actually understands this food will let me know.
Okay farkers. Ooops, can I say "farkers' here?
Yes, I am using one of the crutch meats, but they call it something else downunder, and it was the best meat I could find today.
I was in the mood for surf and turf, and it just so happens that Aussie sheep farkers (ooops, did it again), like surf and turf -- at least according to the internet.
So, I gots me a thick USDA Choice Scotch Filet, and seasoned it up with k-salt and black pepper. Then, I let it rest and soak up that salt and pepper goodness.
I then skewered my 15 count jumbo Gulf prawns (shrimp to the rest of us). Coated them with olive oil, and seasoned with k-salt and black pepper.
While those rested and soaked up the flavors, I made a beer sauce.
I sautéed sliced onions, sliced jalepeños and diced garlic in olive oil, then added cream and beer. I let it simmer to reduce down to a sauce, then added some butter.
Time to grill! Steak first.
Then "shrimp on the barbie."
And here is the finished meal.
And, here is what I did to the finished meal. I'm stuffed, but very happy.

My apologies CD, I didn't see that before I posted, certainly if similar entries are not allowed, I am more than happy to step out of the throwdown.
No bad intentions intended.

Never mind the dog. He yaps a lot and tries to bite...actually...yeah, maybe you better watch out for that dog, he might even be rabid.
As for similar dishes, there is nothing at ALL wrong with that!:thumb: In some categories it's almost required to have similar dishes because there are so many specifics.
Fleck no, don't do that!
These guys are messin widdya!
Look at Gore's entry, it lampooned me so successfully I am fleckin humiliated. Teach me to be so open!:wacko:
