fav rub is this. put it on ribs. amazing. you can buy it on their online store...



favorite thing to make on grill is jerk pulled pork. take pork loin and marinate in walkerswood overnight. then put on aluminum foil and pour more walkerswood on it. wrap in foil. cook indirectly for a couple of hours till pork temp is about 165. pull off grill and let it sit for about five or ten minutes. open up foil. get two forks and pull apart. can get walkerswood online or at world market.

When you're all done with meat and are ready for dessert:

Slice a peach in half and remove pit
brush cut side with veg oil
Sprinkle cut side with cinnamon and brown sugar
Place round side on grill on medium heat for 4-6 minutes
Turn and cook for 2 minutes to carmelize sugar
Serve with scoop of ice cream.


Tastes like peach pie
Probably would be good with apples, too, but haven't tried it.

Will have to give grill a good scraping as some of the brown sugar will stick.

not really a recipe, but more of a tip on grilling ribs in less than an hour and a half.

after putting the rub of your choice on the ribs get out a piece or two of aluminum foil bigger than the ribs.  place ribs in aluminum foil, put about 1/4 to 1/3 a cup of water under the ribs.  fold the aluminum foil over the ribs and enclose them.  place this on the grill for 45-60 minutes over medium heat.  take ribs out of aluminum foil and put directly on grill, flipping a couple times (every 5 minutes or so and sauce each time the ribs are flipped).  and enjoy.

tried this stuff on some chicken thighs last weekend.  Really really good.

sounds delicious.  the kc masterpiece honey teriyaki marinade is uber good on chicken and steaks 

[Thin Blue Line]

Although I'm a sucker for a good KC strip, I love to grill pork steaks and country style pork ribs. Make sure to grill on indirect heat. A decent job will take about 2 hours. For the best flavor, use charcoal and toss on some apple chips, for smoke flavor, several times in the first hour.s

I second the peach thing, but i use a balsamic glaze not cinnamon and sugar.

I got a grill skillet and love it.


Marinated some fajita meat over night and tossed it in the pan let it get nearly done and threw in peppers and onions.
Use it a lot for veggies or potatoes.  Use a lot of Tony's.

Also do foil packets of sliced potatoes and onions with butter or non-stick spray, your choice and Tony's.

For a good steak, really all you should need is some olive oil and S+P.  Let the meat flavor come through. For crappy cheap meat, marinating or rubbing is a must.

Put on grill for 15 seconds and flip -15 seconds and flip - etc. for a total of about 8-9 minutes.  Used to just let them sit for about 4 minutes a side (maybe twist 180 to get the criss cross pattern) but read about this new constant flipping way and it is great.

Was pretty skeptical about this, but it worked great.  One of the best steaks I've grilled in a while.  I flipped every 30 sec. though.

Salt will also carry any marinade into the meat, but must be kosher or sea.

portabella mushrooms, cut in 1/2 inch slices, make a tray out of aluminum foil, toss in some butter and garlic salt, enough to saute' them, cook until tender.  Same with zucchini dip in or brush on melted butter w/ garlic salt,  cook them directly on the grill.

Dumb question- can grills take natural gas? Our new house has a natural gas spicket on the back, but it's old and no idea if that sort of thing is still around.

yep, you have to buy one that is made for either though.  There are a lot that will say dual fuel.

This brand is my favorite seasoning if I just want to season my ribeye with the ol' salt/pepper deal purists only...if you're this type then get this product because it's so much better then digging in the cabinet trying to find the morton's table salt and equally embarrassing ground pepper in the small tin can...

and also if you like to do baked potatoes rather on the grill/oven/microwave then get this seasoning as you will never use anything else the rest of your life for baked potatoes.

What kind of grill do you fellow EMAWers use? I have the Big Green Egg, which is more of a smoker...'clams has the same thing. I'm looking into buying a weber kettle here soon to sear steaks on. I don't have a grill right now (egg is at the parents house, and will remain there till i graduate) and I'm having major steak withdrawals.

Any suggestions on grills to buy? I'm more of a charcoal fan, btw

I use a Weber charcoal grill myself. Can't go wrong with the classic. Propane grills do have there advantages with quicker cook times, but i don't care for the taste as much.

Yeah i'm a true believer in charcoal (Hank Hill wouldn't like this thread) and I think it taste better than propane. Propane is obviously less of a mess and the whole process goes a lot faster - just flip a switch and wait till the iron is hot....like 3 minutes. With charcoal you have to wait till the coals ash over, which is a pain in the ass waiting fore sometimes.

The above is my thought process for what grill i should buy.

[cireksu]

I've got a webber and a nice propane one. Use the webber for pork and beef propane for chicken 

[steve dave]

I have a Charbroil Commercial Series 4 burner propane. 



Would like a charcoal but don't want to hassle with it

[cireksu]

Its not bad just get a chimney starter.

[steve dave]

Its not bad just get a chimney starter.

Does that clean up the charcoal?  Because, if it does, I'm in.

[KSt8er]

Its not bad just get a chimney starter.

Also for the BGE user who said they wanted something to sear their meats, a chimney starter works great, then dump into your BGE for fuel.

only flip once.  

brats take at least 20 minutes to cook the right way.

close your grill, don't let the heat escape.  don't be a meatpeeker.

My dad taught me "If your lookin, they ain't cookin"
