It’s that time of year again to prepare a grilled Turkey. See my Brined Turkey or Grilled Turkey posts for some ideas. I haven’t figured out yet what I am going to do this Thanksgiving, but thought I would share a great resource for grilling and cooking. Hulu offers tv shows, movies and clips from many different resources in many different genres (not just cooking). This is great for watching your favorite shows for free without having to record them. Or, you can search back catalogs to find old tv shows and movies.
With the Thanksgiving holiday, I found some Bobby Flay videos on Food Network to get your juices flowing. While on Hulu, check out other Food Network videos, or just search on your topic and find many how-tos and videos.
<updated 12-3-2008> It appears that the Hulu links expire and the ones provided below no longer work. Even a search on the site for Sana Fe Smoked Turkey does not produce a result expected. In any case, you can still search for other turkey related videos. Visit www.hulu.com.

I have to say that the roasted corn husk gives this a unique flavor. My picky 7 year old even likes this salmon (albeit without the capers and red peppers). This recipe was derived from the book “Fish & Shellfish Grilled & Smoked”.

Clams are so easy to make on the grill. My wife and I decided to do a seafood appetizer platter with Grilled Shrimp and Clams. Check out my Shrimp on the Barbie blog for the shrimp recipe. Below is how to make Grilled Clams and Spicy Butter Sauce.

I can’t really explain the off topic post other than say that I have other hobbies and don’t want to have a second blog. Below is my assessment of the iPhone after 7 days of ownership. On my scale of 1-10, here is how I rate the iPhone.

Let me start off by saying that I have flown over Cuba, smoked real Cohibas, listened to Gloria Estefan (forcibly), have a Cuban-born coworker, but never actually been to Cuba and am not an expert on Cuban culture or cuisine by any means. But, I love pressed cuban burgers. I have been wanting to make this for a while and La Cense gave me good reason. Their lean, healthy, individually pre-packaged ground beef patties were great pickins for this dish. Below is my recipe with these great tasting patties (well, 2 were La Cense and 3 were 80% lean) Click to continue »

I recently had a chance to experience La Cense grass fed beef. Their Black Angus cattle graze in 88,000 acres of open pastures in Montana and are raised without pesticides and antibiotics. Research shows that grass fed beef is lower in calories than grain fed beef and higher in beta-carotene and Omega-3 fatty acids. This leads to a healthier beef eating. La Cense beef is then dry-aged for 19 days before butchered and the result of the entire process is a leaner, more tender cut of meat. Check out their 4th of July Special at their website www.lacensebeef.com.

Ok, so this one isn’t on the grill, but it sure is a time saver with a bit of planning. Thanks Aunt Wanda!
Place brisket, onions, & smoke in ziploc bag and refrigerate over night. The next day discard onions & smoke. Rinse brisket, place in heavy duty pan with a lid. Put in oven on the lowest temp. available (about 200 degrees). Leave it there for no less than 8 hrs. or more. When it is done, discard extra liquid around meat. Pour sauce all over meat and return to oven and bake for 30 mins. at about 300 degrees. Remove from oven and let it sit for about 20-30 min. Pull the pork with a fork.

I am finding more and more grilled fish recipes that I really like. Orange roughy is great since it is not too fishy tasting, is light and flakey, and you don’t really have to mess with the bones.

Two Dollar Dinner! Well, 6 chicken legs for $1.93 ain’t bad. Throw in some canned black beans and a grocery store fruit bowl and you have a family meal while the wife is out for girl’s night out. And what kid doesn’t like chicken legs? Today, I didn’t want to mess with some extravagant recipe, so here ya have Simple Chicken Legs. This gave me a chance to throw the football with my son and babysit the chicken every once in a while.

As an affectionado of fine tactical firearms and edged weapons, as well as spatulas and thermo-forks, i ran across this site and thought others might find it interesting. Disclaimer, i have nothing to do with this site, i have not yet [yet] purchased anything from them, it just looks cool. Place is called Tactical Grilling at http://tacticalgrilling.com.
If anyone has experience with them, please add a comment. If not, once i save enough pennies for the Tactical Beer Shingle for my molly pack, i’ll pass on my experience.
So far, it just looks like three products, but hey, cool idea.
Semper Grill!
