grilling

I grew up with a Weber grill.   It's the classic charcoal grill that has been around for decades.  People love them, and I had a hand me down Weber grill that finally broke down a few years back.  As a wedding gift, we got a gas grill.  It did it's job for about 2 years, before it crapped out as well.  It was time to go back the classic, so I started shopping around.  I found myself zeroing in on

For years I've piled charcoal briquettes into my weber grill and then doused it with lighter fluid, lit it, sear my eyebrows off, and then wait for the coals to get hot.  That's the method that was passed down from generation to generation to me.   My eyes were opened recently to the wonderful advantages of using a charcoal chimney.  It's now the only way to go when grilling with charcoal.

Our friends, Dave and Kathy had us over for a BBQ and we did shish kebabs.  The shrimp was my favorite so I asked for the recipe which she found online on the Food Network website.  You have to try this, it was easy and looks gourmet!  Make it for Mother's Day (if no one is allergic to shell fish, be sure to ask...

Recently we were invited to our friends, Dave and Kathy for a BBQ.  When I asked what I should bring, they said dessert because they had the rest of the meal covered.  We grilled shish kebabs and they were delicious!  There are several reasons you should serve shish kebabs if you're having guests over for a BBQ.

There is no meat more meant for grilling than the steak.  However, a good steak can be expensive.  If you want to get a thick rib eye it can cost $20 per steak at the grocery store.   Porterhouses are a great cut to grill and the t-bone is a classic, but those cost a pretty penny as well.   That's why I swear by the chuck eye cut.  It's half the price and tastes just as good as a rib eye.  Here's

I've always preferred the taste of charcoal grilling preferred to gas grilling.  I think most people agree that it just tastes better.   But what about hickory charcoal?

This last weekend we decided to grill up some brats while fishing.  I thought I would try the mini grill I got from work.  We gave away quite a few of them a couple years ago, and I thought I would try mine.   I now recommend that you not use them for the winter, because we had to get very creative to make it work.

There was a time once when I had time to make my own patties.  Once and a while I still do.  It's part of the grilling process.  However there are days like yesterday when I've got to be a million places and it's nice to just throw a pre-made patty on the grill.  I saw the Johnsonville Grillers on sale at the grocery store and picked it up to try.  Here's what I thought.

Yesterday it was about 85 degrees outside, and about 78 degrees inside.  I was craving pizza, but I didn't want to pay $700 for delivery. (Ok maybe not that much...)  I also didn't want to heat up the house with the oven, so I grabbed a couple of Jack's Pizza's from the freezer.  I was a little nervous to throw them on the grill, but decided to chance it.

Last year was the first time I ever tried a pizza that was grilled.  They took the cheapest frozen pizza and turned it into a gourmet pizza that everyone loved!

I'm one of those people that actually ORDER meatloaf at a restaurant.  Love it!  But, usually give it up during the summer months for lots of reasons.  For example, we start making hamburger patties for the grill or it's too hot to start the oven.  I was excited to stumble upon this Taste of Home recipe for meatloaf that is GRILLED and stuffed with my faves, mushrooms and butter!  Give it a shot t
