Jesse James' T-Bones

T-bone steaks, in a marinade of Worcestershire (which you can always substitute with soy sauce), tabasco, brown sugar, garlic and tomato sauce. Interesting, I think I just made my own  far out-west version of  A-1. So  I marniated them for two hours and then put them on the grill. Served with corn on the cob and a side of baked beans (not out of a flashlight). Just like being out on the range...




Episode Note: "Bobby's Hero" Bobby begins to idolize the lore of the old west and Jesse James, causing problems at school, prompting a call from his teacher. Disturbed, Mike and Carol set out to show him what a truly bad guy James was, but the efforts are undone by a glamorized and heavily edited TV movie of  the outlaw's life. Determined to teach Bobby a lesson, they somehow dig up a surviving relative of one of Jesse James' victims to jolt him into reality. The old man tells a harrowing tale of violence and the murder of his father by James, because as he tells Bobby, "James was a mean, dirty killer." Shaken, Bobby has a nightmare in which Jesse James, during a train robbery, murders the Brady's. Nice.  Bobby finally sees Jesse James for who he really is. He turns in his holster and guns (literally) and assures Mike and Carol that he will pick his heroes more carefully in the future. Well, shoot, thar ain't no good way to end this so put your hands up and nobody will get hurt.
