    Marinated London Broil, and tomorrow the leftovers (if there are any) will be our version of carne asada tacos.
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    Tried the "ultimate burger blend" from Williams & Sonoma tonight. Pretty tasty, but not as good as from other farms I've tried
    design is where science and art break even.

    This evening it was salmon with a brown sugar, cracked peppercorn, and garlic, glaze. Grilled over charcoal with a little hickory smoke. Sides were grilled asparagus and a red, white, and blue, salad.

    Yesterday was Chicken ****, tonight was burgers. No grilling tomorrow supposed to rain, so it will be beef broccoli for us. Think I'm going to stop using charcoal this year and go back to wood. I hate seeing people saying they are having New York strip steaks. After having Ribeye, NY strips are just bland. I know I can pick up the NY for 2.99-3.99 a lb. at the local meat markets, but the 8.99 for the ribeye in a better tasting deal to me. Just my pinion.

    Today I'm doing up baby back ribs - rubbed down and ready to go for the low and slow bbq!

    What do you have going this holiday weekend?

    What time is dinner?? :cheesygrin:

    I did brauts yesterday - parboiled in fresh onion, scallions, garlic and beer, then grilled, then back to the bath - served on a toasted hoagie roll with cheese, sauerkraut, spicy mustard, and the strained out garlic/onion/scallions.

    Tomorrow, I'm doing teriyaki marinated chicken and some home grown potatoes I'm going to pan fry as seasones wedges.

    Started smoking a 14 lb. brisket at 4:00am this morning. Ready for serving at 4:00pm this afternoon. Everybody raved about it. Got a pretty nice smoke ring working there. Baked beans and macaroni salad on the side. Man food! We'll get back to vegetables and salads tomorrow! lol

    Man, ate like a pig last night at my in-laws. 2 grills going, and with 100 degree heat standing over a grill wasn't my idea of fun. Margarita's helped alot.:cheesygrin:

    Grilled Italian sausage, BBQ chicken, Arachetta's with some home made guac and Pico, a spicey seafood pasta with clams/shrimp/calamari, 2 different salads, oh....and grilled Salmon too with an apple crumb cake bringing up the rear.

    We get home from eating like pigs, tired from the heat, the wife says "I'm hungry". WTF ?? "Didn't you eat anything at your parents ?" All she had was salad, and I'm thinking to myself with all that good food, you didn't eat ?

    So off to Taco Bell she goes. This my friends, is what keeps those weight loss joints in buisness. I just nod my head, with the fear of saying anything more would mean I'd have to deal with my wife.....and I make it a point to never deal with my wife.:cheesygrin:

    Went to my butcher the other day and picked up a 4 1/2 lb "point" brisket.

    So, it'll be a long lazy day on the back patio with some cold ones and one eye on the bbq! :cheesygrin:

    Big fat burgers - fresh ground round with some 'secret' seasonings, fries, grilled corn on the cob, and some baked beans....maybe a spicy Calif. Zin to wash it down! :biggrin:

    My goal for this summer is to do a brisket. I have only done Boston But and Ribs in my "Good Eats" Smoker.

    Good luck with the brisket. They can be a little tricky to cook, but are amazingly good when you get them just right. Don't give up if the first one isn't perfect. Just tweak your technique a little and try again. I have probably done 30 or so Boston Butt smokes and every one was fantastic. It's hard to mess one of them up, they are very forgiving. Briskets, not so much. I've only done 6 or 7 full size "packer briskets" and the first one was way overdone and very dry. I almost didn't try again. But I eventually gave it another try and each one was better than the previous one. So again, good luck and be sure to let us know how it turns out.

    I did my first brisket the other week - had my specialty butcher cut me a 4 lb 'point' - a bit smaller so that it would cook sooner.

    I found a good site with lots of info:
    www.amazingribs.com

    And I bought myself one of those Amazin Smokers and pellets.

    After about 3 hrs in the grill at precisely 230F, I foiled up the brisket and put it in my oven to push it past 'the stall' at 150F - but I don't think I wrapped it tight enough, cuz it was another 3hrs before it finally got up to the recommended 200F.

    Still - for my first brisket it turned out pretty darn tasty - good smoke flavor and color, not tough, juicy (did inject it with beef broth per the recommendations).

    Definitely doing brisket again...took some notes and will learn from last one.
