Don't know about you guys, but I love cooking shit on the grill. Nothing like standing by an open flame, with a cold beer and a sizzling piece of meat cooking in front of you. This weekend I'm going to smoke a boston butt (pork shoulder) w/ oak and a dry rub.

What about all of you? What do you like to cook? Marinades etc?
 


Nothing compares to a steak that has been grilled properly. It has taken me probably 10 years to get good at it - and I know I am no where near GREAT.

In the summer I probably grill 3 nights a week or more - in the winter I still do it but not as often.

I like to do pork ribs in the oven low and slow all day and finish them on the grill.

I used to smoke pork butts whole but to get it tender and falling apart took 12 hours at least to do it right.

Now I cut them in half. You can still smoke at a low temp (200-220) but it cooks twice as fast and since you've increased the surface area you get much better smoke penetration and much more pink smoke ring and bark.

Good call on the BBQ BTW. BBQ and NFL conference championships. Fuck yeah.

That sounds like a good idea. I'm gonna have to try that.

Fuck ya. It's definitely an art. I think the trick is simple flavors, getting the right cut (nicely marbled, meat bright red, marbling kind of a creamy color) and cook that bitch hot and fast, flipping only once. Also, let it stand for at least 5-10 before you cut into it...gives the juices a chance to distribute.
 
Chicken FTW

Salt n' Pepper
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Worcestershire Sauce
Tabasco Sauce
Garlic Cloves (Smash w/flat of your knife)
1/2 lemon

Step #1: Poke the chicken (or meat) with a knife so everything will seep inside.

Step #2: Salt n' Pepper those fuckers up to taste

Step #3: Place all the chicken in a tray so it can marinade. Apply Olive Oil Liberally.

Step #4: 6-8 shakes of Worcestershire. 4-6 shakes of Tabasco.

Step #5: Crush Garlic cloves and throw them into the mix.

Step #6: Add some fresh squeezed lemon juice in there.

..Let marinade 1 - 1.5 hrs.

Get the BBQ HOT before you throw it on. Put the chicken Skin-DOWN. Poke the chicken with your finger to test if it's done. Squishy/Bouncy/Bloody = Not Done.

My friends dad taught me to cook (french-trained) a couple years ago and I use his recipes all-the-time. Cook your chicken like that and make some BOMB burritos. Good luck bros

thats he gheyest shit i read on here.





PROTIP

SIMMER THE BBQ SAUCE BEFORE APPLYING TO MEAT. STICKS TO THE MEAT


EDIT-
@Garret

im going to try that.

also, i remember when i bbq some chick over a real open flame. was out camping, threw a grate over the flame and cooked like the use to cook. damn it was good
 
Keep the steaks off the gas and on to the charcoal FTW.

Love tuna steaks on the grill. Also, I highly recommend investing in a nice pro grade grill pan/vegetable basket for grilling sides like asparagus, sliced squash, etc.

I like a tin-foil wrapped medley of sliced potatoes, onions, yellow/red/orange peppers douched in olive oil and chopped garlic. Keep that up on the top rack.

Smoldering alder chips in the gas grill has a nice effect on chicken.
 
I like my red meats and Salmon almost raw. Throw it on for a few minutes just to get it warm and then chow down.
 
Grilling is pretty amazing, it annoys the fuck out of me when I'm grilling with someone and they keep wanting to flip the meat over and over instead of just letting it sit there and not fucking it up.
 
Try THIS, very, very good. Just had it last night, awesome stuff. It's not hot, but it's good. Make sure to let it in the fridge for a day or two before you cook with it.

If your in the midwest head to Montgomery Inn in Cincinatti for the best BBQ!
 
Fuck you guys about grilling and BBQ'ing. I'd freeze my balls off if I tried cooking out in the dead of winter! lol

Its a whole nother ball game in the winter though. I get down on some brisket.... Mmmmmm

When I lived in Omaha, we used to set the grill up in the garage and cook in there. But fuck that, tomorrow is gonna be 76 and sunny :)
 
Seriously this is one of the biggest reasons I quit my job and started working on my own.

Carne Asada, a bowl of weed and a 12 pack of Bohemia on a Friday afternoon.

The best part of this recipe is taking a pic and texting it to your boys that are grinding away at their 9 to 5's...
 
Call me crazy hell call me country but you damn well better not call me after 10pm!!! I love to cook some good ole dear on the grill. Dear steak has to be by far one of the best meats around. Just keep the flame low and let it go, served with rice and vegetable of choice makes a hell of a meal...:food-smiley-002:
