Grilled Buffalo Steaks

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

This was a very tasty and slightly unusual dinner. My local grocery stores just recently started carrying buffalo, so I picked up some little eye of round steaks for dinner tonight. This was grass-fed American Bison, raised free range in Montana. I've had buffalo before, but it's ...

Sesame Pork Skewers

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

I found this recipe in "Picnics, Potlucks, and Barbecues" Taste of Home special magazine. Here is a link to the original recipe for Sesame Pork Kabobs. I used less onion, increased the garlic a bit, and used fresh ginger. This was decently good, but I think it ...

A Slightly Belated Memorial Day Grilled Dinner

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

We just spent most of the weekend grazing rather than actually making meals, so we made a nice grilled dinner tonight. I got some fresh white corn and some halibut fillets, and then I saw these humongous shrimp on a super sale since they were getting close to their ...

Southwest Marinated Flank Steak

Friday, May 15th, 2009

This recipe came from the flank steak package. It wasn't too bad, but I don't think we'll probably be repeating this recipe. I'm posting it just in case one of my three readers might enjoy it more than we did :-) I used ...

Chile Rubbed Pork Tenderloin (revisited)

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

Tonight I grilled up some chile rubbed pork tenderloin and served the meat with tortillas, salsa, and refried beans. I added a tsp of onion powder to the rub and used more like 5 cloves of garlic. It took about 25 minutes on the grill, low heat, turning ...

A Surf and Turf Dinner – Grilled Steaks and Lobster Tails

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

Happy Mother's Day! We could not be with our mothers today, but we still wanted to have a nice dinner in honor of them. I grilled up some top round tip steaks with my galbi marinade (pretty good, but the marinade is better on the thin flanken-cut short ...

Citrus Grilled Chicken (revisited)

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

About a month ago I made this citrus grilled chicken. Tonight I made a couple tweaks - adding cumin and replacing the food coloring with turmeric, which added some flavor as well as keeping the distinct yellow color. I'm quite happy with it now. It still isn't ...

Grilled Shrimp

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

This is a great way to enjoy shrimp in the summertime. The flavors are reminiscent of a margarita with spice instead of sweet. I sometimes omit the tequila or add various other finely minced fresh herbs - basil and oregano work well. We served this with the ...

Chile Lime Chicken Tostadas

Monday, April 27th, 2009

This was a quick and easy dinner that I came up with on the fly. I had some skinless boneless chicken thighs that needed to be used up, so I threw together a Mexican-inspired wet rub, grilled them up, along with some tortillas, and made some very tasty tostadas. ...

Grilled Marinated Flat Iron Steak

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

This recipe is slightly adapted from Ree's recipe on The Pioneer Woman. I used a flat iron steak rather than a flank steak, a bit more garlic, grated the garlic and ginger rather than mincing, and grilled it outside rather than in a grill pan. It was very ...
