Sunday, as you know, is Father's Day. For all of us, that's a very special day. My dad is a retired Sheriff's deputy. But, living in a small town in SC, things were a little different than larger towns and cities. My dad was their fingerprinting and photography expert. That meant that he was called at all hours of the day and night to go to crime scenes and dust for prints and take photos. If the call came at night and it wasn't a murder, I got to go with him. By the age of about 13, I could ID fingerprints as well as most experts. Needless to say, my dad and I were close. We still are although we live further a part now.

This Father's Day, my sister Michelle and I will cook some of Dad's favorite foods and sit around and laugh and swap stories. I hope that you and your family will have the opportunity to do the same. Never pass up an opportunity to spend time with loved ones because you never know how much time you have left.

Usually when we think of Dad's Day, we think grill, so our recipes are for grilled food. For me, grilling means charcoal. I know that there is a big debate or gas or charcoal. But, I have a gas oven to use if it's raining. If I'm grilling, I'm using charcoal. However, you can use either source. You can even convert these recipes to indoor recipes and use your broiler.

The first recipe is a great steak with a spicy adobe paste. The recipe uses delmonico steaks, but you can use whatever you prefer or have on hand. The corn relish can be made a day in advance if you char the corn under the broiler of your oven. I really love this corn relish.

If you don't want to cook beef, try the second recipe. It's a moist, delicious halibut steak. You can substitute salmon or tuna for the halibut if you don't care for it or can't easily find it. Either way, it will be delicious cooked on a charcoal grill.
