Steak and Potatoes

BEWARE!! THE CRISPY POTATO STACK IN THIS RECIPE IS SUPER ADDICTING!!! If you’re a steak and potatoes person, this is the recipe FOR YOU. If you’re not, then it’s still for you because it can easily be prepared with fish, grilled veggies, or you can just have more potatoes…more crispy potatoes! I have been tweaking this dish for a few weeks now along with the crispy potatoes and it was finally time to film it. Hope you enjoy!
