Rib-Eye & Champagne on a Rainy Day

I'm sure I don't have a biased opinion when I say my husband is the best BBQ'er ever! Why go to a steak house when you can have the best at home?! Which brings me to tonight's dinner....bone-in rib eye, butter & garlic asparagus & baked fries, all served with champagne by the fire. This was my first time making my own fries and asparagus with NO recipe! It came out great!! Enjoy!
