I Feel Like Cooking Something on the Grill...

Recommended Posts

...and I mean with the real charcoal briquets that contain all of those carcinogens that adds so much flavor...

What do you like to grill?... anything unusual?... care to share any secret recipes?...

I had a friend who grilled corn on the cobb with the husks on. I don't remember how she did it. I think it involved soaking them in water first?

yep... that's how you do it... I'm not certain how long it takes cause I've never actually done it...

I don't grill a whole lot... partly because I don't have one... but it also takes a lot longer to prepare to grill stuff... (wierd reason I suppose) if I do grill its nothing unusual typically.

But you make your own pie crusts and fillings???... :S I'm disappointed... I was sure you'd have all kinds of interesting recipes for me.

I might have to reconsider my marriage proposal. :D

You can do corn in the husks, or just shuck 'em and wrap them in foil (sprinkle a bit of water on them before you seal them up).

I like simple stuff on the grill... all kinds of veggies (sweet bell peppers, red onions, zucchini, or asparagus are among my favorites). Rub a little olive oil on them, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cumin, and grill. Yummmmmy.

I marinate chicken breasts in a mixture of equal parts water, soy sauce, and olive oil, and sprinkle in a bunch of tarragon.

Or I just do burgers or brats. Sometimes I mix up feta cheese in the burgers.

Fish is awesome on the grill, especially a really good piece of salmon.

I recently came accross a recipe for "wash", which apparently is something that you splash and paint on chicken while you BBQ it. I don't have the exact recipe, but it goes something like this:

1/2 Cup of vinegar
4 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
as much garlic as you want (there's no such thing as too much garlic:P)
1/2 teaspoon of white pepper
2 tablespoons of basil
salt - a pinch, ... whatever
1 tablespoon dried mustard

Grill the chicken slowly, occassionally keeping it wet with the "wash" ...

Damn! Now I'm hungry. time to fire up the grill! B|

I don't have a grill, but I do have artichokes steaming, a ribeye in the broiler, and an icy cold :D. :)



I could be convinced to come over to your house. That sounds good! :)

I come up with things as I feel like it... I like unusual things... I like to grill salmon (although I prefer it blackened in a cast iron skillet... I have a list of spices that make up a general cajun seasoning ;)) I suggested soaking portabellos in itallian dressing before throwing them on the grill to one of my friends (who's a vegetarian) and I can tell how done a steak is by touch... (it has to do with how much it springs back or not when pressed)

If it is good summer corn...meaning...very tasty...all you really need to do is "heat it up"...never over cook summer corn, it loses its snap....you can cook corn on the cob right on the grill after removing the husks and make pretty grill marks across it, or you can leave the husks on, but remove the little "hairs" and brush it with butter and cracked salt. Mmmmmhmmmm.:)

Corn on the cobb on the grill? Easier than pie.
Don't husk it or try to remove the silk. Nothing . No soaking. It's sealed in it's own little perfect steamer.
Just put it on the grill and turn until done. If you like it a little carmelized just cook a little longer.

...but I'm prepared to grill some corn on the cobb the next time I get the inclination though... :)
