It is actually Jay that LOVES Grilling! However I am really starting to enjoy it myself. We can for sure taste a difference in the food. For instance, I made bread in the oven and I have made bread on the grill, which one is better?? Jay likes the grill one better.
You may be wondering, but we have a Vision Grill (if you are interested) which is amazing! We also got a nice electric starter for it and heats the coals up in less than 10 minutes. I use Cowboy Charcoal as well because the easy light stuff makes me very sick. It also gives it a very good taste. For the smoky flavor on meats, Jay likes to use different woods... Cherry, apple, hickory. Apple is my favorite so far!
What can you make? Shoot... You can make just about anything. MEAT.. chicken, whole or in part, turkey, hole or in part, beef, pork, fish... Just with something like Ham, you need to have it in a pan so that it doesn't get dried out. PIES! Yes! you can make pie in it. I made cherry pie. Next will be apple. BREAD. I plan on doing bread tonight if it isn't too late. I have my bread rising now. It does take a little longer, I can cook it in the oven for 25 min and it will be done, but on the grill it takes 35-40. Not a huge difference. VEGGIES... always! I did baked cauliflower and it was tasty! Jay did onion, peppers, corn (in the husk) and I don't remember what else. But I'm not a huge cooked veggie lover, unless it is cauliflower or corn... It was all good none the less. PIZZA! mmmm, grilled pizza with homemade dough is divine! You can put any topping you wish on it!
My next project will be chicken potpie on the grill. I think it will give it a good flavor while cooking the dough well. I will let you know. Tonight, however, Jay is going to be cooking a Stuffed Pork Tenderloin. He will be putting in onion, broccoli, pineapple and cheddar cheese. I think it will taste good, but time will tell!!
I guess that is all I have to say about grilling for now. I haven't forgotten about the girls drawing project, Miss J didn't finish hers yet, so I am waiting on that, and Miss C sent me hers already, so I have it! I'll post them when I get Miss J's!!!
