Pepper Steak

Matt, Mike, and I decided to grill some steaks last night. And while this may not be a "little" pepper, we all enjoy ourselves a little pepper!

We crusted the Tri Tips with black pepper and Chipotle flakes. Served them up with some Spicy Thai potato chips, roasted Anaheim Chiles, and greenbeans. It was pretty dang good.

Beef.

Mmmmmm. Steak.
(eaten the way God intended, hot and with my fingers)
