4 Pound Powerhouse Porterhouse by Cast Iron Chef Attilio Marini

Attilio Marini has added mouth-watering sizzle to the menu at Marisa’s in Trumbull, CT a unique cooking process that features cuts of meat presented in steaming cast iron skillets blending a sensual marriage of crust on the outside with tenderness on the inside.
His signature is the 4-pound powerhouse porterhouse for two, sliced off the bone delivered in a sizzling skillet with potatoes, butter and roasted garlic.
“I don’t like the taste of char broiled meat,” Chef Marini says. “I knew there had to be a better way to make a steak and creating the perfect crust, which is my signature. When you dine with us the experience is a memorable meal at a tasty price below the cost of high-end steakhouses. This is an old way of cooking with a new twist,” he says of preparation in cast iron.
Cast iron cooking requires intensely hot ovens and stove tops. The jaw-dropping presentation at the table doubles the delight of dinner customers, according to Tom Purcell who travels from Ansonia in the Naugatuck Valley to the restaurant on a regular basis for the beefy experience.
“It’s incredible the way they cut it,” says Purcell. “When it arrives you admire it for a bit before digging in. And the caramelized garlic, wow.”

Unpredictable Snow Storm on the way

**** First Call Snow Map *****

We say First Call because god only knows this storm will bite us in the butt and make us look like fools. But as of now this is what we are seeing. Could it be less?? Yes… could it be more?? highly unlikely. These totals are on the slightly higher side due to the complexity of this storm.

Timing is still a tough call but most of us will be asleep when the heaviest if you want to call it that of the snow will fall. It looks to last into the morning hours in the West and Central parts of the state. It holds out a bit longer in the East.

School delays will be expected especially in Central and Eastern CT. There may be some delays in the West towns but only as a precaution. Look for cancellations in Eastern CT and maybe some over protective school officials in Central CT.

This will be the heavy wet type snow so we could see some power lines and tree branches come down especially in Eastern CT causing some power outages.

Thats all for now we will follow up later on today. Enjoy the Sun while it lasts. It is much cooler outside and the temps will drop as the day goes along.
