Grilled Marinated Flat Iron Steak

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

I got this recipe from Elise of Simply Recipes. She has a lot of great recipes, so visit her blog! The marinade made the steak very flavorful, even after just 2 hours. The only things I changed were using a 1.25 lb flat iron steak instead of ...

Grilled Carrots and Asparagus

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Foil packets are a great way to cook delicate things on the grill. Tonight's salmon was cooked in foil, as were the asparagus and carrots accompanying the meal. I got thin asparagus spears and julienned the carrots so that they would cook in about the same time as ...

Grilled Salmon

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

This is a very simple and delicious way to prepare salmon. Shaun called it restaurant quality. It really allows the flavor of the fish to shine, so get a high quality fillet. I used some local wild-caught coho salmon. The same method works wonderfully for a ...

Grilled Corn

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

The summer corn is just starting to come in, and while a quick boil is great, I also love to grill corn. The smoky flavor penetrates the corn and the slight char is just delicious. This hardly qualifies as a recipe, but it was tasty, so I'll ...

Grilled Balsamic Chicken
