Shio Koji-Marinated Flank Steak with Grilled Brussels Sprouts with Honey-Lemon Vinaigrette (both recipes from CI) - flank steak gets marinated with some shio koji for 7 hours (to get a flavor similar to an aged steak), heated in the oven and finished with a quick pan-sear.
Brussels sprouts get nearly quartered (too enlarge surface area) and wet-brined. Steamed on the grill in an aluminum foil pouch and subsequently directly grilled to brown. Served with some not-homemade roasted potatoes with pesto

My friendly neighborhood raccoon would love that also!! 
I’m looking for a more “permanent” solution though…

After seeing so many wonderful pizzas posted I had a hankering for it so made a couple for dinner :
Puttanesca - with Rao’s marinara sauce, mozzarella, olives, capers and white anchovies.
Fennel - with a blend of whipped ricotta and Boursin, lemon zest, prosciutto and black pepper.
Served with a kale Caesar salad

Wow! Great crust. Do you have a pizza oven, or how did you achieve this magic?
I was pooped last night!
impressed, Ms Bean!
And draws the neighborhood cats to your newly christened “cat house”. 
These were recommended to me earlier this summer - but you have to put them out BEFORE they show up to make their nests. So I’ve got them ready for next Spring to hang several on my deck.
