Love the pic of Enzo checking out all the food, looks familiar

Damn those kabobs and steaks look amazing.

Just picked up a new grill cover, mine had seen better days. Definitely need to clear some space on my patio so I can start grilling and smoking again

Ahead of time I season them with cajun season and salt and pepper in a bowl. Then when I cook them use some olive oil to put a coating on the bottom of the cast iron pan and throw the brussle sprouts in with probably 2.5-3tbsp fresh garlic. Once done the first night I drizzled some balsamic reduction over them.
I found a recipe I want to try next which is just garlic and bacon brussle sprouts with balsamic reduction. I need to try a bunch more recipes as all these were just cajun flavored. Very good though.

Thanks man. I think the kabobs came out best of any I have ever made. I normally end up over cooking the veggies trying to get the chicken cooked through. This time the veggies were still tender with just a light charing while the chicken was nice and juicey. Only think I did different was cook them over med-high direct heat for a few minutes on each side then almost as low as the grill would go direct heat for the last 20min. Almost like they were being baked.

Throw some bacon in with the brussel sprouts.

It doesn't have to be a lot, but it's bacon, so it's okay if it is a lot.

Made strip steaks and asparagus on the grill. Asparagus was made with butter, garlic and lemon juice and really got the grill flavor, good stuff!

Had both families over last night for Father's Day, made beef dogs and steak burgers on the grill and some more grilled asparagus. Got lots of compliments on the asparagus

Grilled asparagus is awesome especially with a little pepper on it.

Love pepper on lots of things. I like a little extra heat so been swapping out regular black pepper for this for about the last 6 months. Stuff is really good.

Used my green egg as a grill Sunday night for the first time. Also my first time grilling using charcoal too. I hate how much longer it takes to get going but damn if these were not the best tasting burgers I have ever made. Got the temp set to 400 degrees and was able to cook the burgers in 12min only turning them once. It unfortunately ended up being a little long for my asparagus though.

Saturday night it was time to use the Egg as w grill to make a nice steak. Picked up a 1.85lb Tbone that was 1.5in thick. Used a reverse sear method with the steak. Started the corn on at 250 and 15min later added the steak. Got the steak to 110 degrees internal temp. I then pulled the ceramic plate from the egg so I could raised the temp of the grill up to 550 and put a nice char on the outside of it.

Haven't done much grilling or anything on the smoker till this past week.

Made some great burgers and corn on the cob last week. The burgers had cheddar cheese and sweet onion mixed in them. Then I topped the burgers with some boars head smoked Wisconsin cheddar which was great on the burgers will be doing again. I also put fresh jalapenos and some onion on my burger which is one of my favorite ways to top a burger. You can't grill without a great beer to go along with it. This one was out of this world from New Belgium barrel series. Believe these are only sold at the Brewery.

I made grilled mahi-mahi tacos a few days back. I marinated the fish for several hours before throwing it on the grill



Made a home made pico de gallo with some of the leftover cilantro that I got for the marinade, some fresh avocado and some mango salsa



So good

Always see adds and coupons for this place but have never ordered anything from them. Is the meat really that much better?

I ordered from them once and was thoroughly unimpressed.

Costco is better and a whole heck of a lot cheaper.

If you have a good local place keep patronizing them.

Dunno about "better than", but it's certainly not inferior OS is expensive unless you hit one of their sales/free shipping deals. Plus I'll get their gift cards at ~8% off at Raise or CardCash and use those to make the purchase. And I also get their (OS) 10% military discount

I just picked up a year's supply of 1/4 lb burgers (96) for only ~$97 shipped.

Also, their apple and tri-fruit tarts are fantastic, as well as their baked stuffed potatos

Their hot dogs are excellent, everyone that has tried them raves about them. Their burgers are super tiny patties, there's a picture of them above with the asparagus being grilled. Both the dogs and burgers were from Omaha. Their steaks definitely are not worth it, but they are convenient to pull out and thaw for a quick meal. I've made good meals with their chicken and pork chops, their proteins are smaller servings, but probably what we "should" be eating instead of big ass servings that we like to make

And yes, the 4 oz steak burgers are tiny, especially after they cook down.

I have a $10 cash back on Purchase for $50 or more from my credit card I just noticed as well. That makes it $1.15 a burger.

Go for it. If you don't like, then it didn't cost you too much for trying... And it's even less if you use a $50 gift card bought at Raise or CardCash... Or get a $75 gift card and add some baked stuffed potatos
