This recipe is from Little B Cooks.  It’s an Outback copycat recipe.  I used to order this dish whenever I went to Outback, but now it’s a pass due to the honey that the dish includes.  It was nice to revisit an old favorite with my own ingredients in my own kitchen!  This is a super flavorful dish and I love the way all the mustards combine.
