Sullivan's Steakhouse House Iceberg Wedge

Cooks4_6's Note:

I love salad wedges and think this is the best iceberg wedge salad that I've tasted.

• Total Time: 20 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 7 ounces crumbled blue cheese
• 2/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1/3 cup buttermilk, well shaken
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 1 large iceberg lettuce (or 1 1/2 small)
• 6 ounces crumbled blue cheese
• 3 plum tomatoes, seeded diced

Directions:

1. For the Dressing: Place 7 oz. blue cheese, mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, sour cream, oil, sugar, garlic and pepper in a bowl. Using a hand-held mixer on low speed, combine all the ingredients, scraping down the bowl once.
2. Refrigerate 24 hours or as long as 3 days.
3. For the Salad: Cut the lettuce head in half. Then cut each half in thirds (if small, cut each half in half).
4. Trim the core from each wedge.
5. Place the wedges on chilled salad plates. Spoon about 1/3 cup of dressing over each wedge, allowing it to run over the sides. Sprinkle each with blue cheese and tomatoes, dividing evenly.
6. Serve chilled.

I have been to Suulivan's, one of my favs, their blue cheese dressing is without a doubt the BEST. I frequent all the big name steakhouses and Sullivan's takes the prize in this category. The recipe is outstanding, and anytime I make it the first thing people comment on is how it's the best they ever had!

Loved it! I added some chopped hard-boiled eggs, but followed exactly otherwise. Thanks for sharing.
