On home court Michael Jordan wins MVP with family and friends when he fires up his grill and treats guests to mouth watering Backyard ribs and marinated Cowboy steaks. Everyone lends a hand with traditional favourites for a buffet style feast that leaves no craving disgruntled. In the backyard guests gather for some rest, relaxation and the chance to enjoy being together. A family ball game sets the theme for the perfect Sunday afternoon.

Red wine and light-hearted conversation around the dinning table make for the ideal evening when Jordan entertains in his home. A gracious menu of filet mignon in an array of sauces, meant to mix it up, is Jordan's stress free way to bring a gourmet style meal to the table that still leaves time to engage with quests.

A night with the boys calls for 38oz Porterhouse Steaks grilled to perfection with Michael's special sauce. The guys congregate around the big screen to enjoy their steak dinner and whatever game happens to be on. Then, it is off to the card room for a friendly poker game. If Mike can't come out on top in cards he can still scores points for his grilling technique.

Just Mike and the kids? Mike likes to let the kids do the cooking. New York Strips are a favourite in the Jordan house and the perfect grilling steaks to teach the kids how to grill just like dad. They pick their own condiments and sauces, dad oversees as they become masters of the BBQ.

Setting creates the mood with dinner for two. A fresh balcony view, candles and champagne fashion ambience. For a private dinner, designed to impress, Michael prepares a seared, sliced Ribeye drizzled with his Sweet Peppercorn Steak Sauce over a bed of marinated vegetables. With flavours meant to be savoured Michael opens up the night to endless possibilities.
