1. Cook ground beef in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking into small chunks with back of spoon, until browned and completely cooked. Drain, if necessary. Transfer to 3-1/2 to 6-quart (3.5 to 6 L) slow cooker. Add onion, carrots, stock, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, tomato sauce, tomatoes and mushrooms. 
2. Cook, covered, on LOW for 6 to 10 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours or until vegetables are tender. Meanwhile, cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain. 
3. Add zucchini, parsley and drained tortellini to slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 15 to 20 minutes or until heated through and zucchini is tender. Spoon into individual bowls and top with Parmesan cheese. 

1. Combine Worcestershire sauce, 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil, chives, mustard, horseradish (if using) and ¼ tsp (1 mL) pepper in a sealable freezer bag. Pierce steak all over with a fork. Add to bag, turning to coat; seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or for up to 8 hours. 
2. Discard marinade from meat. Pat steak dry with paper towel. Grill in a closed preheated barbecue over medium-high heat (400°F) for 10 to 12 minutes, turning twice or more, or until a digital instant-read thermometer inserted sideways into centre of steak reads 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare at the least. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest. 
3. Brush onion halves all over with remaining oil and place in grill basket. Grill in closed preheated barbecue over medium-high heat (400°F), turning occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until lightly charred all over. 
4. Meanwhile, bake or grill the Furlani garlic Texas toast according to package directions. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and immediately top each toast slice with a slice of cheese. Return to heat just to melt the cheese. Spread with mayo/mustard/horseradish to your taste (if using). 
5. On a large cutting board, slice the onion lengthwise into thin wedges and carve the steak across the grain into thin 2-inch (5 cm) long slices (like shaved roast beef); season steak and onion all over with salt and pepper to taste. Divide onion and steak slices equally among four toast slices on top of the cheese. Top each with remaining toast with melted cheese on fillings to make 4 sandwiches. Serve each sandwich with a knife and fork. 

To make your own croutons to top soups or salads, cut Furlani garlic Texas toast into ½-inch (1 cm) cubes. Bake in preheated 325°F oven in a single layer on parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, stirring twice or more, for 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy all the way through. Cool for 2 to 4 hours after removing from oven. 

• Cut shallow slits all over roast; insert garlic slivers into slits. Rub all over with Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Combine parsley, mustard, herbes de Provence and oil in bowl. Set aside 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the mixture for Shallot Gravy, rubbing remainder all over roast. 

• Place roast, bones down, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert oven-safe meat thermometer into centre of roast. Roast, uncovered, in a 450°F (230°C) oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 275°F (140°C); roast until thermometer reads 145°F(63°C) for medium-rare doneness, about 2-3/4 to 3-1/4 hours. 

• Remove from oven. Cover loosely with foil and let stand for 15 to 30 minutes before carving. Drain off all but 2 tbsp (30 mL) drippings from roasting pan and make Shallot Gravy. 

• Shallot Gravy: Place roasting pan over medium heat; add 3 shallots (coarsely chopped) and reserved herb rub. Cook, stirring until shallots soften. Stir in 2 cups (500 mL) beef broth and 3 tbsp (45 mL) Worcestershire sauce; simmer, stirring up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Combine 1 to 2 tbsp (15 to 30 mL) cornstarch with equal amounts cold water, making smooth mixture. Gradually stir into broth; bring to boil, stirring until thickened, about 3 minutes. Strain. 

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat.
2. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook for about 5 minutes or until they soften and start to caramelize.
3. Stir in the mirin, sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, dashi stock and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil.
4. Add the thinly sliced beef to the pan and cook until it changes color and is no longer pink. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5. Simmer the mixture for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Serve the Gyudon over a bowl of cooked rice.

1. Sauté onions in olive oil and butter until caramelized and add quartered cremini mushrooms to brown. Season to taste with Kreiser BBQ’s SPG rub.
