A few weekends ago I tested another couple of recipes for the Gilded Fork Cookbook. I picked a Garlic Roast Beef and Champagne Cauliflower. The first sounded like something the family would love and the second got the best of my curiousity since I laugh cauliflower but the thought of cooking it with champagne really got my attention.

I'll say it again that I'm not a food photographer, but it is an interesting challenge for me since they are crowdsourcing the photos for the cookbook.

Below you'll see shots of the rub for the roast, it being carved and the finished product.

One thing I will say about the recipes. I have NEVER had Dylan ask for seconds of any sort of meat before and he always dips all meat in ketchup. He loved the taste of it that he never asked for anything to dip it in and both kids asked for seconds. So needless to say it WILL be made again in the house. Can't say the same for the cauliflower. *grin*
