Good morning friends! Since it's summer (for most of us) I'm wondering about your thoughts on grilling and BBQ.
Do you have a grill / BBQ? What kind is it and does it work well? Do you cook the food on it or is that someone else's job?
(It's my understanding that BBQ is slow cooked over wood or coals using tougher cuts of meat. Grilling cooks foods quickly - think steaks, burgers, veggies.)
We bought a propane grill this summer, it's really easy to use but we've only used it twice so far. I had done the research and we got a Weber because of the good reviews and also great customer service. Before that we went through a couple of generic charcoal kettle grills but they are terrible to use here since there's always a cold wind blowing outside cooling down the coals!
My husband has taken over the grilling duties this year. It is too much for me these days to prepare meals using appliances that are both outside and inside.
My father used to make great BBQ brisket, OMG. He slow cooked it over mesquite wood from trees that are all over the place in central Texas (nobody wants them on their land, they are pretty invasive and have wicked thorns). My dad had his own sop recipe - I have a copy and am going to try it out this summer. MAN that brisket was good!
