Earl Cooks Grilled Ham Steak and Two Squashes while Dog Sitting


Recently, my wife a.k.a. "Turkey" and I had the opportunity to dog sit for daughter #2's family, so I got the chance to cook on a nicer, newer stove than I am used to, and it is gas while ours is electric, so it was an adventure all around. I chose to cook something simple and satisfying that we enjoy often, a ham steak, but with a twist we had never tried, grilling it! My daughter has a stove-top grill! I decided to make it simple and have grilled zucchini squash and grilled yellow squash as sides. I halved the squashes and placed a bit of oil on the cut side and added the seasoning, placing them on the grill cut side down. I then placed the center-cut, bone-in ham steak (about 1½ lbs.) on the grill. It was about half an inch thick and great for this application. Most people would serve a starch of some kind, as we would normally, but for the two of us it was just right...summer squash in the dead of winter with a winter favorite HAM! I really liked the gas stove-top.
