Too many of my customers fire up the grill, make their chicken,
pork chops, brats, etc. and then turn it. I’m here to challenge you to maximize the use of your grill!
1st Course- Why not make a grilled Caesar salad?
Split a head of romaine lengthwise, brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the romaine for 2 minutes, chop it up and mix with Caesar salad
dressing and croutons.
2nd Course- You're already grilling that steak,
why not grill the potatoes as well? Cut russet potatoes in wedges and toss with
oil and your favorite BBQ seasoning. Place potatoes on the grill over medium heat
and until cooked through.
Cheese Course- Cheese on a grill?!? Why not? Look for a firm
cheese like one of my favorites called Halloumi. Cut cheese into ½ inch slices and grill for
about 3 minutes aside. Squeeze with lemon and serve.
Dessert- If you take away anything from this blog hopefully
it’s the idea that desserts are perfect on the grill. My favorite? Grilled pineapple.
Take some sliced pineapple and brush with a combination of brown sugar and dark
rum. Grill for about 3 minutes aside and serve with vanilla or coconut ice
cream.
Have a great week my friends.
Praise the lard!
