Big BBQ Weekend...

I spent a good deal of time cooking Saturday afternoon and early Sunday morning. For Saturday I prepared ribs, chicken and beef fajitas... The ribs came out very good... The chicken came out ok. But the beef fajitas were not so great... I definitely need to work on my marinating and tenderizing technique.

I really had a good time cooking. I hadn't cooked on the grill in weeks and weeks.

Although I really enjoy brisket and ribs very much I'm going to retire my recipes and focus on chicken, fish and veggies for a while. Monica is really pushing me to prepare healthier food and is afraid that we consume too much red meat for our own good....

I really do enjoy grilled veggies and am looking forward to improving my expertise in that area. I like grilled and smoked salmon, too and wouldn't mind eating that more.

I bombed on beef fajitas and am just going to admit it and move on...

OK, so next Sunday afternoon will be a grilled veggie extravaganza...!
