Feels like a grilling night

Feels like a grilling night

PostBy: billlindley On: Fri Mar 27, 2009 4:22 pm

I’m gonna go home and fire up the grill tonight for the first time this (cold) spring.

Tonight it’s gonna be simple with some burgers with onions and garlic inside, Worchester sauce on top. To stay away from the fries I’ll take some vegetables and put them in foil with a little salt, pepper and olive oil. Throw them on the grill while the burgers are cooking and dig in!

Anyone have any good recipes that you want to share?

No recipes to share but I fired our grill up last week. Nothing like the first burgers of the season!! :up:

Last Fall I bought a new grill & had a plumber come & run a natural gas line out to the deck & converted the grill from propane to nat gas....Now I can rotisserie all day & never have to worry about changing propane tanks!! :clap:

Should have done it years ago

I can't disagree with you because I am not deterred from grilling during the year, except for the worst of days.
I am on my first "gas only" grill and I have to say I remain unimpressed. I used to be a die-hard "lump charcoal"
only user, but relented and used a "lava-rock" gas fired grill, for some years, which was OK when it had fresh "lava-rocks".
The current gas fired grill is a huge compromise from the real thing..."lump-charcoal".
I would certainly put the Harman 2000 grill to the test with a few Oak chunks below...Seems it would be "just the thing"
for the blizzard conditions that DO keep me from grilling...

I was planning on griling this winter too but the deck was covered with snow most of the time. :(

I have a brick patio on the north side of my house which would be impossible to keep clear without a radiant melting grid, so if you burn coal, it's a no-brainer. I never have to shovel it all winter, or the previous 8 years either, it's melted just like magic! I keep the Weber fueled and ready, and we will be enjoying a NY sirloin in about 10 minutes. :cheers:

They make a thing called a shovel !! :lol:
Use it to clear snow from the deck.
Then cook burgers or steaks as usual.

Can you really do that??? :lol:

(somehow it's just way to much work .......I'll just let someone else do the cooking & eat my steaks in a nice warm restaurant in the dead of winter)

You guys gotta check out a grill Char-Broil makes that's a dual purpose - charcoal or LP. It's cool to be able to light the Kingsford without the use of lighter fluid which taints the meat a little. I've had it for about 4 years now & love it. Do alot of indirect cooking............. :beer:
