"Houston's is one of my favorite restaurants, if anything, for the simplicity and consistency of their dishes. Here is one of my favorites. You can serve these without the remoulade and they are just as good!"

directions
- Trim the tops and ends of leaves from the artichokes, cut in half lengthwise and remove the fuzzy choke. Squeeze a bit of lemon on immediately to prevent browning. If preparing artichokes ahead of time, place them in a bowl of lemon water until ready to boil. If unsure how to properly prep an artichoke, look online for an easy demonstration.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Add artichokes to boiling water, and cook for about 15 minutes. Drain well.
- Squeeze the remaining lemon wedges into a medium bowl. Stir in the olive oil and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
- Brush the artichokes with a coating of the garlic dip, and place them on the preheated grill.
- Grill the artichokes for 5 to 10 minutes, basting with dip and turning frequently, until the tips are a little charred. Serve immediately with remoulade.
-
Remoulade:
- In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well.
- Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for several hours prior to serving.

Remoulade was great! Rather than boiling the artichokes, I use a pressure cooker to cook them for about 8 minutes or so. (Which, I believe, is what Houston's / Hillstone does to theirs...) Love these!

Houston's grilled artichokes are one of my wife's favorite dishes. This recipe NAILS it. If you aren't a mayo fan (I am. My wife ... not so much) you can substitute plain yogurt, sour cream, or some combination of the two. Thank you to whoever posted this recipe!

Actually they use Zatarains Creole Mustard and Frenchs mustards plus at touch of ketchup and horseradish. Truthfully this recipe was missing 10 ingredients and had 8 that aren't in the actual recipe. I'm sure this one is good, just not as advertised.

I spoke with one of the Houston’s chefs... no olive oil... straight up salt, pepper and BUTTER. They also steam their artichokes vs boil. They do not cut the top of the stems either. This might be my favorite dish ever. Paired with an unoaked Chardonnay or Blanc di Blancs sparkling wine....delish! Ps. Charcoal grill is essential for getting the char...

Added a tbl spoon of paprika, a splash of Louisiana hot sauce, some Tony’s and a splash of pickle juice to the remoulade. Super legit. Oh, and parsley to my garlic sauce.

Although hardly your traditional southern girl, I come from a huge southern family and have been cooking since I was eight years old. Cooking is more then a hobby, I genuinely get so much pleasure from cooking and providing the people I love with great food. I have to attest, that it truly IS the way to a man's heart! In my opinion, there is nothing more admirable to hold then the truest essence of a homemaker, or as the term is coined today "household engineer"! I am a licensed real estate agent working full-time from home and a soccer mom to my 9 year old son. I am a busy bee but somehow find time to indulge in some of my many passions: dancing, photography, sewing and interior design. Finding that perfect balance is what I strive to do everyday and so far so good. Happy Cooking<img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
