Bring steaks to room temp by setting out before it's time to cook. Season ribeye generously with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss on the pellet grill, flipping halfway through, until cooked to medium or medium well in the center. Top with butter, garlic, or fresh herbs if desired.

Heart Patties
Use: Ground Beef
This is a very quick, very simple way to make an ordinary meal feel special, especially for gal-entines or if you're cooking for the whole family.
How to Make It:
In a bowl, mix one pound ground beef with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and one egg if you wish. Using your hands, form 4 even balls of mixture and press together well. Flatten one at a time in your hands and press the top in, to create a heart shape. Heat skillet over medium heat and melt a few tablespoons of butter. Cook patties on both sides until cooked to your desired tenderness.
Serve with tallow fried fries, or your favorite side dish.
Stuffed Baked Potatoes
Use: Brisket Patties
Bring Texas barbeque right to your table with this family favorite.
How to Make It:
Season patties with garlic powder and salt. Using a pellet grill or smoker, cook patties on low (200-250 degrees) just until brown on the outside. Transfer patties to a skillet and continue cooking like you would ground beef, by breaking apart the patties and cooking until done.
While the patties are cooking, add white potatoes to the Instant Pot with about one inch of water in the bottom. Cook on "manual" for 6 minutes (8 if they're really big).
Once meat and potatoes are cooked, cut open a potato, smash it with a fork, and top with generous amounts of butter on top. Next, pile on the cooked brisket meat. Finally, top with raw cheese, sour cream, chives, and any other toppings you desire.
Enjoy!
