Baked potatoes with butter, sour cream, and chives. Hasselback if I'm feeling festive.
Roasted or grilled asparagus
Sautéed mushrooms
Cabernet Sauvignon or Malbec (fruit course)
So many wonderful Choices and I wrote all of them down! The Hasselback Potatoes showed up several times and I really liked the Gratin recipe. It's going to be a tough decision for this Easter but rest assured many of them will be served with our steaks through the coming year.
Thank you Pit Master Brethren and Sistren for these great sides! Keep them coming and I will continue to take notes.

Current cookers Weber Spirit 3 burner with a full insert griddle added. A 22" Kettle with vortex, SnS and a Smokey Joe. The most recent addition is a Pit Barrel Jr with bird hanger, 4 hooks and cover. ThermoWorks Smoke 2 probe, DOT, 2 ThermoPops and a Thermapen MK4. A Thermoworks RFX Gateway 2 probe meat thermometer.
We enjoy Potatos Dauphinois. I use Jacque Pepin's basic recipe, however, instead of milk I boil the potatoes in mostly cream or only cream and in the bottom of the baking dish I have caramelized onions and then I top it with Gruyere cheese.
We also like to do a risotto Bianco. I use a riff on Jamie Oliver's recipe from his book "Jamie's Italy".
I also like a green lettuce salad usually with vinaigrette to help cut the fat from the meat and the above two sides.
I wrap sliced mushrooms, some garlic cloves, salt and pepper and butter in foil, get it on the grill for about 45/60 minutes.
I do the same with an onion with lots of garlic cloves. Onion sliced in half butter and evoo.
Asparagus wrapped with prosciutto and a smear of cream cheese.
