Dunno if it's still being        published or not. For actual printed stuff I still have my "Tsatr of       Gloucester" cookbook that I picked up om a visit to Cape Ann. I've not       finished pounding the lasy of the recipes into the Meal Muncher. And I       have a few recipe cards that I've brought home from various grocery        shopping trips. But, that are mostly available on-line new.              Even good ol' stuck-in-the-50s Humphrey's Market.              MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06                Title: Caramelized Onion, Bacon, & Blue Cheese Smothered Ribeye        Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Cheese, Pork, Citrus        Yield: 2 Servings                16 oz Ribeye steak        1 c Crumbled blue cheese        1 md Onion; diced        1/4 lb Thick sliced bacon; rough        - chopped        1 tb Worcestershire sauce        2 tb Orange juice                Caramelize bacon and onion in a pot.                Mix blue cheese, Worcestershire, and orange juice in a        separate bowl.                Sear ribeye on both sides to create a crust.                Top the steak with the blue cheese, bacon, and onion        mixture.                Roast in the oven for 15 minutes (medium rare).                UDD NOTES: This is a horrid way to treat an honest rib-        eye steak. I used, instead chuck steak (not chuck-eye,        which is nearly as good as rib-eye) or sirloin.                RECIPE FROM: https://humphreysmarket.com                Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen               MMMMM              ...
