| #1 Posted on 19.7.06 2133.38 Reposted on: 19.7.13 2135.13 | I haven't seen this thread here in this forum and I think that it is a worthy question.
Husband loves his brats; no cookout is complete without those. A Wisconsin thing I guess. I enjoy steaks marinated in teriyaki sauce. We both like grilled sweet corn. When I have enough ambition, I try other vegetables too; bell peppers, mushrooms, onions etc. on skewers. Someday when I amass enough ambition, I will crack open that Thai cookbook and try some satay.
EDIT: charcoal, gas, or other? Charcoal for us; every gas grill Husband has ever had has turned into a birdhouse.

| #3 Posted on 20.7.06 0704.27 Reposted on: 20.7.13 0705.58 | I will pretty much try anything on the grill, even in the dead of winter. (as long as I can get the patio door open)
What I like most, though, is doing a whole chicken, mounted on a beer can. Skin gets nice and crispy, while the bubbling beer keeps the internals nice and juicy. | DrDirt

| #5 Posted on 20.7.06 0756.36 Reposted on: 20.7.13 0757.13 | Like Haz, I'll do just about anything on the grill. A current favorite that gets rave reviews is dry-rubbed ribs slow cooked with grilled sweet corn. We've also had a lot of jerked pork this summer which has worked really well with packet grilled onions, potatoes, and carrots with grilled peaches for dessert.
If it ever stops raining here, I think I'll be grilling tonight.

London Broil with a Teriyaki Mustard Pork Loins with Maple Balsalmic Mustard Swordfish Steaks with a Habanero Pineapple Sauce Shark Steaks with a BBQ Sauce Chicken Mango Sausages from CostCo
Also like to split a tomato - cover both halves with a little olive oil, basil, oregano, salt & pepper - let them roast on the upper rack (or on the side) until they almost fall apart - sprinkle with parmesan before you serve.
And you can't beat a vidalia (sweet) onion split and roasted with butter, salt & pepper. | rinberg

| #11 Posted on 20.7.06 1515.49 Reposted on: 20.7.13 1516.11 | Gotta go with shrimp. Just simple in a marinade of butter, parsley, garlic, lemon juice and seasoned salt. Though I saw a new recipe in the latest Bon Appetit that I have to try for a shrimp salad where they grilled the shrimp I think with some smoked paprika and other simple stuff and added it to a spinach salad with hunks of avocado and grilled pearl onions. Yeah, that's gonna happen this weekend. | Oliver

"Taste the meat, not the heat" - Hank Hill, Strickland propane.
If I am marinating, then steaks, chicken, or salmon.
If not, burgers and dogs.
I am not particularly fond of grilled veggies other than the summer squash mentioned above, but I love firing up the side burner to steam corn on the cob.
After 25 years of my grill, I just might get a new grill this year when they go end of season clearance sales. There are some pretty awesome stainless steel models out there that have built-in coolers, smooth surface side burners, lots of cutting board space, etc. When they come out with one that has a diswashwer, a sink, and a microwave then my whole kitchen can be outside. | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
