Then place the pork in the grate. Start grilling it for thirty minutes on medium heat. Then watch out for the middle area of the tenderloin when it starts becoming pink because this is the time you have to turn it on the other side. In another smaller pan put the apricots, vinegar, ginger and thyme altogether. Cook it for two minutes over medium heat. Make sure the apricots have melted a bit. Carving the meat is the last step and pouring the sauce over it.

Ingredients: 4 boneless pork chops, about ½-inch thick (You can make as many as your grill will hold!) salt, to taste freshly ground black pepper, to taste extra virgin olive oil (generous amount to cover both sides of pork chops) Heat up your outdoor grill. (You may use an electric kitchen grill, if you prefer.) Salt and pepper pork chops to taste. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over pork chops. Turn pork chops to coat with olive oil on both sides. Place pork chops on hot grill, and cook until bottom sides are brown. Use tongs to turn all pork chops, and let them continue to bake until brown on both sides. At this point, remove the pork chops and place them on a nice serving platter. Let them rest a bit before cutting into them. To test for doneness, make a cut in the deepest part of one of the pork chops. The meat should be white. If there is any pink showing, the pork chops will need to go back to the grill and cook a bit longer. Pork *must* be cooked all the way through! I served these Grilled Boneless Pork Chops with Wild Rice Bake and Fordhook Lima Beans, with some Potato Chip Cookies for dessert and ice tea to drink! Sooooo good! I hope you enjoy the pork chops! --Betty 

Barbecue Pork Steaks - What They Are and How to Cook Them

If you are a native of Saint Louis, Missouri, or the surrounding area, you are lucky enough to know what a Barbecue Pork Steak is. The rest of the country is saying, "huh, what is he talking about?" Well, real quickly, a barbecued Pork Steak really isn't barbecued. Now, before you St. Louis people get crazy, let me explain. Real barbecue is done with barbecue smokers, indirect heat, hickory or oak or another type of hardwood, takes a long time, hours, and turns out great pork shoulder, ribs, beef briskets and chickens. A Pork Steak could be cooked in this fashion on a barbecue smoker, but need not be. Most people here in St. Louis, will use either a Weber Kettle Grill with direct heat, or a Propane Gas Grill. So, Barbecue Pork Steaks, really, are technically speaking, Grilled Pork with Barbecue Sauce Applied.

How To Cook A Pork Steak: Five easy steps.

1. Get The Meat. In St. Louis, that's easy. Go to your grocery store, or neighborhood butcher go to the meat department, pick up the ones that are on sale, pay for them and take them home. If you don't live in St. Louis or the surrounding areas, this could be a little more difficult. Most other areas of the country do not have pork steaks pre-cut and packaged waiting to be picked up in the meat cooler. They will have plenty of pork chops, pork shoulder, pork roast, pork ribs, etc. You may be tempted to substitute pork chops. You could, if you want to grill pork chops, which are great by the way, but it is not the same. You must ask the butcher to custom cut them for you. You may have to tell him how to do it. Tell him to take a Boston Butt (he'll know what you're talking about. If he doesn't, get a different butcher), and slice it into half inch to three quarter inch steaks. If he won't do this for you, get a better butcher. You will need about one steak per person, and one or two extra for the big guys.

2. Rub Your Meat. You should spice up the steaks prior to cooking with a spice mixture known as a barbecue rub. Many books and e-books will have recipes for spice rubs. If you don't want to use a barbecue spice rub, use salt and pepper. Be generous. Rub it all over the steaks.

3. Grill The Meat. Grill the meat over direct heat, either charcoal, gas, wood, whatever you have available. Keep the flame low, a cool grill works best. Cover with the lid, and flip every ten minutes or so. Cook for about 35-40 minutes.

4. Put Barbecue Sauce on Meat. The last ten minutes or so, liberally spread barbecue sauce on the pork steaks. Use whichever sauce you prefer. In Saint Louis, most people prefer a local favorite, Mauls. Many people also thin the sauce a little with beer. they use the local favorite, Budweiser of course for this step. The beer is not necessary, but some people swear it makes their pork steaks taste better.

5. Serve the Pork Steaks. Pork Steaks are served with whatever side dishes you want to serve them with. St. Louis favorites are yellow potato salad, cole slaw, corn on the cob, baked beans. At least, that's my favorites, and I'm from St. Louis, so that must be the favorite of everyone. Generally, one pork steak per person, eaten with knife and fork. However, they also make fine sandwiches.

There you have it, Pork Steaks, what they are and how to cook them.

How to Grill Fruit

Did you know that some of the best grilling recipes incorporate fruit? The grill is more than just the domain for chicken and steak, and grilled fruit is a terrific summertime healthy dessert option. Simply throw your chosen fruit on the grill until softened and slightly charred. The grilling process helps to draw the fruit's natural sugars to the surface, making already sweet fruit even sweeter. Choose firm stone fruits like peaches and plums for the best grilling recipe results, although grilled pineapple is one of my personal favorite easy desserts of summer.

Convinced that grilled fruit is delicious yet? If not, give these two grilling recipes a try and you'll soon be singing a different tune!

How to Smoke Pork Ribs to Get The Best BBQ Results

Nowadays, you may purchase several affordable gas fired BBQ grills that run off propane as well as simple to utilize and maintain. However, these may not always provide genuine BBQ results.

In fact, they are nothing more than a gas hob or convenient stove that we may use outdoor and the food will miss that exceptional BBQ taste. Below is one of the best tips to follow to learn how to smoke pork ribs.

Pork ribs are the meat as well as bones directly cut from the ribcage of the pig. They are often baked, grilled or smoked, and very famous in Asia and in North America. There are many types of pork ribs, which include baby back ribs, spare ribs and rib tips and are all perfect selections for smoking. Smoking pork ribs includes additional flavoring yet uses up more time when cooking.

Trim all visible unnecessary fat from the ribs then remove any end meat. Usually end meat hangs off the end of the pork ribs and burns off if not cut out prior to smoking.

Massage your favorite dry meat rub on the ribs. Make sure you use enough to cover all the meat on the ribs. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoon of chili powder on the part that has more meat.

Using a plastic wrapper, wrap the pork ribs and place inside the fridge for one day. The following day, remove the wrapper from the ribs and heat the electric smoker to about 225-250 degrees.

Position them directly onto the rack and make sure the meat is side up. Guarantee the ribs will not directly contact with any direct heat or it will burn the meat too much. Let the pork ribs to smoke for about three hours without opening the smoker.

Turn the ribs over right after three hours, and then allow them cook for additional 40-50 minutes. Turn them again to the meaty portion and let them to cook for an hour or so.

Check out the smoked pork ribs for perfect doneness by means of lifting the meat at the center. The meat on the top must start to break, as well as bones must be visible on ends. In case this is not the condition, cook for an extra half hour and check them once more. Otherwise, best serve instantly along with your favorite BBQ sauce and all the fixins.

Thai Street Food

Thailand is well-known as "the land of smiles." Thais are friendly and well-known as "food lovers." Many say "Thais love to eat. Thais eat several meals per day." In response to these comments, I have to say, yes, Thais love to eat but we eat 3 meals per day just like the rest of the world. The difference is that Thais love to snack. Our snacks range from fresh fruits to deep-fried food. In Thailand, it is so easy to find food. Street vendors are everywhere. If there are people, there are food. One of the greatest joys of living or traveling in Thailand is the abundance and variety of food.

Street vendors, street food, roadside stands, food stands, food stalls or whatever you would like to call it, simply involves something mobile that allows an owner (or a cook in most cases) to push them around, from home and back. Many people may think that street food is not clean, but in fact with many vendors it is clean. And many of the owners are unpretentious. The owners push a cart from home to their selling location and then back home and clean the cart every night. Street food offers an incredibly cheap price and some offer incredibly good taste. Sometimes it is even better than a famous restaurant.

Some street vendors offer such good food that you will have to wait for a table along the street. Particularly in these cases, street food is not only for poor or middle class people - you will often find a businessman or wealthy people ordering the street food. Do not expect a menu from a street vendor because there are not any. Most street vendors only offer one dish, just their specialty. Street food offers a wide variety of choices - curry, fried rice, noodle dishes, stir-fried, salad, fresh fruits, desserts, etc. Basically you name it. You might be able to even find grilled lobsters in China town at a reasonable price. Of course, I cannot forget to mention all the bizarre food like deep-fried frogs, deep-fried birds, deep-fried grasshoppers, etc.

The following are the top 10 street food dishes that I think are better than what restaurants have to offer. In other words, you should buy the following food from a street vendor rather than from a restaurant.

Som Tum - Spicy shredded green papaya salad with peanuts and tomatoes
Larb - Spicy minced meat with chopped shallots, onions, chilies and coriander
Khao Mun Gai - Steamed chicken with rice cooked in chicken stock and garlic
Jok - Rice porridge with ground pork, fresh ginger and green onion (some may add egg)
Lad Nah - Stir-fried thin or wide rice noodles with light gravy bean sauce and Chinese kale
Hoi Tod - Fried oysters in batter with egg on a bed of beansprouts
Pad Thai - Stir-fried medium rice noodles with egg, dried shrimp and fried bean curd sprinkled with peanuts (served with beansprouts)
Satay - Slivers of chicken or pork grilled on a stick, served with sauce and cucumber
Khao Moo Daeng - Chinese-style red pork with rice, boiled eggs and cucumber
Khao Tom - Rice soup with a selection of meat and vegetable side dishes

There is so much more street food than I can list here. The above 10 dishes are those I particularly think are better to buy from a street vendor. One of the greatest joys of living in Thailand is the opportunity to try out food from different places at a reasonable price. I grew up in Bangkok and I have to say that Bangkok has bad traffic. I mean very bad traffic. You can literally sit in a car or a bus for hours and hours. Even though people in Bangkok live with bad traffic, most people will travel a long way through heavy traffic just to eat street food. I have to say I was among them.

Another type of food vendors that I want to mention are not on land, but instead on canals (called Klong in Thailand). Along Klongs, you may find sellers paddling their boats selling fresh fruit and vegetables, noodle dishes, curries, etc. just like street vendors. The quality can be just as good as the street vendors.

Street food can be as good as restaurant food. It is fresh, cheap and good. Part of the fun of living in Thailand is the chance to find street food that is even better than food in restaurants. Some street food may not be as clean, but in many cases, vendors do a good job of making sure the food is clean. There is certainly food for working class people, and food can be found in a wide variety of locations. Next time when you smell some mouth-watering food, stop by and give it a chance. You will not only experience good food, but friendly people as well.

5 Tips on Grilling Pork Chop For Delicious Flavor

Pork chops are a popular choice when it comes to grilled meats because they're easy to cook and when done right, they are absolutely wonderful. One of the most important Tips on Grilling Pork Chops is to choose one that is about an inch thick. It doesn't matter whether or not it's boneless. You can also try using pork loin or tenderloin and slice the meat into pieces that are about an inch thick. A few more Tips on Grilling Pork Chops: if you want thin chops, you have to cook them quickly because they tend to dry out faster as opposed to thick chops, which need a lot of time and patience for they have to be cooked slowly. It is really easy once you get around to it.

Just simply follow these Tips on Grilling Pork Chops:

1. Brine the meat. Brining adds moisture to the meat and keeps it juicy and moist. Brine is basically a saltwater mixture that the meat soaks up. You need about a tablespoon of salt to a cup of water. It usually takes about 2 to 4 hours to brine thick chops and completely submerge the meat. Make sure to rinse the meat thoroughly after brining so as not to have excess salt clinging onto it.

2. Marinade. Aside from adding flavor to the meat, marinades also provide a protective layer to the meat. Marinating the steak protects it from the extreme heat of the grill and tenderizes it as well. There are a number of marinades you can use but the most basic example is Italian Dressing, which contains vinegar, water, oil, and various herbs and spices.

3. Preheat the grill and set it as high as it will go. One of the more useful Tips on Grilling Pork Chops is that if you are using a charcoal grill, make sure that one side is hotter for searing the meat completely and another with a cooler side to finish off the meat.

4. Place them on the grill and close the lid. After about a minute, flip the meat and close the lid for another minute. Set your grill to medium or move the meat to the cooler side of the charcoal grill.

5. Remove the meat from the grill as soon as they're cooked to your desired doneness. Put them on a plate and cover them with aluminum foil for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

These Tips on Grilling Pork Chops let you enjoy your food without having to go out because now you can make them on your own!

How to BBQ Tri-Tip - A Guide

Its getting to be summer time and that means that every weekend from now till Labor Day is more time to perfect your craft of BBQing. I would like to talk to you guys about the proper way to BBQ a tri-tip.

For those of you who are not from the West Coast the tri-tip is probably a foreign word. The tri-tip is a cut of beef from the bottom sirloin primal cut. It is similar to a roast but has the flavor of a steak.

There are multiple ways to prepare a tri-tip: you can marinade it over night or even just do a dry rub right before you put it on. I personally do a dry rub then wait until the last 10 minutes of cooking and mop it with spicy Barbecue sauce. This creates a nice crust to the tri-tip while still having that awesome center flavor.

The best way to cook a tri-tip is to slow cook it over in-direct heat at 325 degrees. The ideal time for cooking is roughly 60 to 90 minutes depending on the size. As a rule of thumb you want to cook the meat 30 minutes for every pound. For example, if you had a 2-pound tri-tip 60 minutes should be about right.

Make sure you don't cook this directly over coals, as tri-tip tends to release a lot of fat grease that can fall on the coals and create massive flare up. Keep a cold beer handy in case there is a flare up to douse the flames.

If you want it to end up medium rare then pull the tri-tip off once the center reaches 140 degrees. It will still continue cooking after it has been pulled off SO DO NOT COVER IT WITH FOIL ONCE IT IS OFF. Too many people make the mistake of covering the tri-tip in foil before putting it on the grill. This tends to make the tri-tip gray and overdone.

It is best served warm and medium rare.

Recipes for Grilled Canadian Burgers With Grilled Peaches Dessert

This past weekend I thought I'd create a burger in honor of my
friends to the North. I got some Canadian bacon and some McCormick®
Grill Mates® Roasted Garlic Montreal Steak® seasoning and I thereby
dubbed these burgers "Canadian Burgers." These burgers turned out
mighty fine if I do say so myself.

The grilled peaches dessert is a great thing to do on the grill right after you take the burgers off. It might seem odd that black pepper would be used in a dessert recipe, but trust me, it won't taste like you would expect it to, and the pepper is an important layer of flavor. The taste will be rich and fruity with an aroma of the great outdoors. A scoop of vanilla ice cream served beside it makes the perfect dessert for your cookout.

4 Tasty Grilled Pork Chop Recipes For Summer Barbecues

When it comes to summertime barbecues, one of our favorite meats to grill is pork chops.

We purchase ours in big family value packs and then repackage them into smaller packages to save money. You can freeze them uncooked for up to 12 months.

Grilling Tips

1. If you are concerned about sticking, spray a clean grill grate with non-stick cooking spray.
2. The longer you marinate your meats, the stronger the flavor will be. I recommend no less than 2 hours marinating time.
3. Use one platter for raw meat and a clean platter for cooked meats. Never reuse the same platter.
4. Use long handled grilling tongs for flipping meats.

Here are 4 of our favorite recipes.

Peach Chops

4 pork chops
1/4 cup peach preserves
1/3 cup honey mustard
2 tsp. lemon juice

Stir together preserves, mustard and lemon juice in a small bowl. Grill over a medium heat, turning occasionally and basting with the sauce until done.

Teriyaki Style

4 pork chops
6 tbsp. teriyaki sauce
2 tbsp. molasses
salt and pepper to taste

Season meat with salt and pepper to taste. In a small bowl, combine teriyaki sauce and molasses. Grill over medium heat basting with the sauce until done.

Italian Style

4 pork chops
3/4 cup Italian dressing
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce

In a container, mix together the Italian dressing and Worcestershire sauce. Add the meat. Seal container and refrigerate for 2-4 hours. Grill over a medium heat until done.

Zesty Style

4-6 pork chops
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. basil
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. hot pepper sauce

In a large bowl, combine all of the above ingredients together except for the meat. In a marinating container, pour 1/3 of the mixture into the bottom. Lay chops on top and finish pouring the remaining 2/3 of mixture on top. Seal container and refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Grill on medium high heat until done.

Healthy Eating Recipes

For most of us healthy eating is an intimidating phrase. However with the right kind of healthy eating recipes you will not find this to be a very intimidating ordeal. The problem is that most of us are addicted to fast food and healthy eating just sounds boring. The fact of the matter is that with the right resources healthy eating does not have to be that boring.

Now you may be exercising and trying to shed your excess weight but not focusing on what you eat is going to bring your efforts to no avail. Staying away from fast food and depriving you of what is considered to be the most pleasuring ordeal of human life can be a difficult task. However if you have the right alternatives at hand you will no longer feel deprived nor unhealthy.

You can substitute oily and fatty food for homemade grilled chicken and fresh salad for every meal. You'll also be able to find a variety of different antioxidant supplements that will help to boost your energy and achieve your weight loss goals. The object is not to starve yourself to lose weight. Rather the object is to substitute unhealthy food with healthy eating recipes comprised of things that are beneficial to the body.

Common sense dictates to make use of a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits. This is why having a salad accompanying every meal is a great idea. You can create a variety of different salad treats by making use of fruits and vegetables in different combinations. However, it is important to stay away from fatty salad dressings that will only make the salad lose its nutritional value.

Along with this you need to restrict the intake of fried foods. French Fries, fried chicken, pizzas and other oily foods are not counted amongst the healthy diet recipes. Rather you should look towards baked and grilled items. Chicken and fish are particularly good to utilize in healthy eating recipes as they have great nutritional value along with which they turn out great when grilled and baked. Pork is definitely discouraged if you are looking to lose weight. The intake of red meat should also be regulated as it can have negative impacts on your body if consumed on a regular basis.

Adding a variety of beans to your healthy eating recipes can also help to create some real tasty and delicious treats. Dried beans, pistachios, almonds, peanut butter and other such items can be used to create the most exotic diet foods that you will ever get to eat.

Another good thing about healthy eating recipes is that these types of recipes are generally easier to prepare in comparison to conventional recipes. This is because they do not require deep frying or other such difficult processes and can be prepared in the simplest of manners.

Take advantage of the internet and look for healthy eating recipes that are easy to make and bring great benefits for your body.

Caribbean Grilled Chicken Recipe

Grilling season is not over yet! I had some chicken breasts that I decided to grill last weekend and I haven't done too much Caribbean style grilling lately, so I thought I'd go that route. I don't get paid to advertise for McCormick spices, but I have to tell you, I love McCormick Caribbean Jerk Seasoning. I always create my own spice rubs, but I haven't put together my own jerk seasoning yet--the reason being that I just love the McCormick blend so darned much.

I mulled over how I was going to marinate my chicken, and I thought: What could I use as a base to provide some interesting layers of flavor? Then it came to me: Coca-Cola! I'd never cooked with Coca-Cola before. I went to my word processor and started making a list of the things I thought should be included in a Caribbean marinade. I then followed my own instructions for the recipe, and the results were VERY pleasing!

Ingredients:

6 skinless & boneless chicken breasts

1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice

1/3 cup fresh squeezed lime juice

1/2 cup olive oil

1 bottle or can (12 oz.) Coca-Cola Classic

6 tbsp. green onion, finely chopped

2 cloves minced garlic

2 tbsp. McCormick Caribbean Jerk Seasoning

2 tbsp. dried parsley flakes

1 tbsp. brown sugar

1 tsp. course ground black pepper

Instructions:

In a large bowl or casserole, mix the orange juice, the lime juice, the olive oil, the Coca-Cola Classic, the garlic, the parsley flakes, the brown sugar, 1 tbsp. of the McCormick Caribbean Jerk Seasoning and 2 tbsp. of the chopped green onion. (Set aside the other tbsp. of the jerk seasoning and 4 tbsp. of the chopped green onion to use later.) After the ingredients in the bowl are blended well, add the chicken breasts and swish them around in the marinade a little bit. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of an hour--all day if possible. When grilling the chicken (preferably on a charcoal grill), sprinkle each side with the remaining jerk seasoning. After flipping the chicken for the last time, sprinkle the remaining chopped green onions over chicken. This chicken tastes great on its own or topped with my Caribbean mango salsa. (See recipe below.)

CARIBBEAN MANGO SALSA

Ingredients:

2/3 cup chopped mango

2 tbsp. fresh squeezed lime juice

2 tbsp. fresh squeezed orange juice

4 rounded tsp. jalapeño peppers (with most of the seeds and membrane removed), very finely chopped.

4 rounded tsp. finely chopped red onions.

2 rounded tsp. finely chopped red bell peppers.

2 rounded tsp. finely chopped green bell peppers.

1 tsp. dried parsley flakes

1/2 tsp. Lawry's seasoned pepper

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients well and refrigerate for an hour or more before
serving.

Grilling with Hardwood Charcoal 101

How to light and use hardwood charcoal. Includes cooking Salmon and also Vegetable shish kebobs. There are many ways to cook with hardwood charcoal...this is just one way....since we made this video I got the Weber chimney, which is well worth the price as it is better built and holds enough charcoal for a grill-full of food...I rarely "quench" the coals now as I burn just enough to cook the food, so there is very little left over. I'm really not on the Weber payroll..I just enjoy their products. Happy Grilling!

Cooking Chuck and Cube Steak

Cube steaks are not really cubes, they are called cube steak because they are run through a tenderizer and the imprints left are little cubes. Some places also call them minute steaks.

No matter what you call them they are very popular because of their tenderness and the ease of cooking them.

There a vast variety of ways to cook cube steak. You can oven bake it with mushroom soup and mushrooms. If you like spicy food you can use it in a curry stir fry. For the traditionalist you can make Salisbury steak with it. Cube steak is also great pan fried and then simmered in either milk or brown gravy until it is tender. The way you cook it is only limited by your imagination, it cooks quickly so no matter how you like it you can have dinner on the table in no time.

There are different cuts of chuck steak. Top blade is the most tender, but chuck eye steak can also be quite tender and can be grilled or broiled, but will need to be marinated first for it to tenderize.

Seven-Bone Chuck Steak, or center chuck, is well suited to braising, as well as Arm steak and Shoulder steak since all these cuts of chuck steak are less tender.

Braising can be used for all the cuts of chuck steak and is easy to do. First you heat oil in a deep skillet and brown the steak on both sides. Then you season the steak and add a cooking liquid of your choice. One suggestion is ketchup and cola, with some water. This combination gives the meat a sweet, but tangy taste. You need to let the meat simmer for 31/2 to 4 hours, until tender.

Well, after reading this you should be ready to cook steak tonight, or at least be getting hungry.

Simple Grilled Chicken Recipes For an Indoor Grill

Outdoor grilling can be a lot of fun but sometimes it is not possible. If the weather is bad, you can grill delicious recipes on an indoor grill.

An indoor grill is good for just about anything that you can grill outdoors, so if you like spicy grilled chicken recipes, hot dogs, fish, vegetables, hamburgers and more, you might want to invest in an indoor grill.

There are various types of indoor grills, you can get contact grills with heated lids, and bottom plates, meaning you can cook your food on both sides at once. Other grills are open and have a large cooking surface. Removable cooking plates are important because this makes cleanup easy.

If you have a big family or you like to have people over, choose a grill with a big cooking surface so you can cook enough food at once.

How Long Does Chicken Take to Grill?

Cook boneless chicken pieces for about five minutes per side over a high heat, for the best results. When the outside is golden brown and there is no pink in the center of the chicken, it is done. Obviously thicker chicken pieces will take longer to cook. You can grill plain chicken pieces or use a rub or marinade to add extra flavor.

Check the internal temperature of the cooked chicken if you have a meat thermometer. Chicken should be 165 degrees F in the center, in order to be safe to eat. If not, give the chicken a bit longer on the grill.

Recipe for Spicy Grilled Chicken

The chicken in the following recipe marinates in a tasty, spicy marinade, and then you grill it. This is one of the most simple grilled chicken recipes and it is nice served with rice and a green salad.

You can add some extra red pepper flakes for extra spiciness if you enjoy really spicy grilled chicken recipes but be careful not to add to much because red pepper can overpower the gentler flavors in the marinade.

You will need:

6 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
1/3 cup canola oil
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
2 crushed garlic cloves

How to make it:

Combine the lime zest, lime juice and canola oil in a bowl, then stir in the salt, red pepper, black pepper, garlic and oregano. Add the chicken breasts to this mixture, turning them a few times so they are well coated in it.

Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in this mixture for an hour, turning them a couple of times. Preheat the grill to medium high and oil the cooking plate. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill it for about 7 minutes per side or until the outside is golden brown and the juices from the center run clear.

Oktoberfest 2009 ~ the organisers ambition to admonish revellers to alcohol responsibly...

Oktoberfest is a twelve-day festival held each year in Munich, Germany, and is an important part of Bavarian culture. Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the Munich event. The Munich Oktoberfest, traditionally takes place during the sixteen days up to and including the first Sunday in October. In 1994, the schedule was modified in response to German reunification. The festival is held on an area named the Theresienwiese (field, or meadow, of Therese), often called d Wiesn for short. Visitors also eat huge amounts of traditional hearty fare such as Hendl (chicken), Schweinsbraten (roast pork), Haxn (knuckle of pork), Steckerlfisch (grilled fish on a stick), Würstel (sausages) along with Brezeln (Pretzel), Knödeln (potato or bread dumplings), Käsespätzle (cheese noodles), Reiberdatschi (potato pancakes), Sauerkraut or Rotkraut (red cabbage) along with such Bavarian delicacies as Obatzda (a fatty, spiced cheese-butter concoction) and Weisswurst (a white sausage). The original "Oktoberfest" occurred in Munich, on October 18, 1810: For the commemoration of their marriage, Crown Prince Ludwig (later King Ludwig I) and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen (namesake of the Theresienwiese festival grounds) organized a great horse race (the marriage took place on October 12; the horse race on October 17 — therefore, there are different dates named as being the first Oktoberfest). In the year 1811, the Oktoberfest was cancelled since ...

Cooking Pork Tenderloin on the Grill

Preparing a pork tenderloin on the grill has got to be one of my favorite meals of all time.  It was a regular staple of my cooking arsenal years ago, but over the past few years I have been dealing with a charcoal grill rather than a gas grill, and for the way I like to grill pork tenderloin, it was just too much trouble with the small, portable charcoal grill I had (it was all I had access to).  I tried it several times, but not only was it a challenge getting a full pork loin to fit on that little grill, but I was never able to control the heat well enough to handle the cooking the way I wanted it done.  Now that I have a new Viking gas grill to work with... oh boy, oh boy, oh BOY!

The thing about cooking a pork tenderloin on the grill is that it's really easy to get really good results, and to really impress your friends, family or whomever else might be sitting at your table.  On top of that, cooking pork is actually quite healthy.  Pork is very low in fat, and is very adaptable to many different recipes.  It also takes on flavors very well, so if you want to add a wet or a dry rub, or perhaps a marinade (from a simple store-bought Italian dressing, which is something I like a lot, to more fancy, home-made concoctions handed down through the generations...)  The one thing you do need to be careful about is that because pork is such a low fat content meat, it has a tendency to dry out quickly if it's not prepared properly.

So how do you prepare it properly?  Well, one thing you can do (other than the store bought Italian dressing technique I just mentioned), is to soak your tenderloin in brine for anywhere from 10 to 12 hours, or even as much as 24 hours if you want to.  Brine is simply salt water.  You can add 2 to 3 tablespoons of good salt (I prefer Kosher salt, but many people swear by sea salt) to a quart of water and just let the pork loin soak in that, covered, in the fridge.  Doing this will help ensure you have a nice, juicy pork loin when you take it off the grill.

As for grilling, you will need to cook on 2 different temperatures.  This is why I like my new gas grill so much; I can crank it up to get it good and hot, then just turn the dial down when it's time to slow cook.

Can't find it online so I am ripping the series from TV to upload them myself. I like this show. I learn cooking techniques, how ingredients work together, and Chinese! Best of all, the hosts are fun, and they brighten up my day and, I am sure, for a number of people as well. There's always a RECAP by the end of each episode, which is on PART 3. You can watch these directly for a quick overview of preparing the dish minus the conversations.

Grilled Pineapple - The Perfect End to Your Barbecue

Grilled pineapple is a perfect dessert for your barbecue. It is tasty, easy to do, great looking, and your guests will love it. Grilling brings out an intense flavor that is delicious.

Make sure to get a ripe pineapple. Look for one that has a nice smell and has crisp green leaves. Prepare the pineapple by cutting off the top and outer skin and coring. Cut into ¾ inch rings or slice into quarters lengthwise (top to bottom) and slice each quarter into four pieces to create wedges.

Make a glaze to be used on the pineapple. You can put it on prior to cooking or use it as a glaze after cooking. If using prior to cooking, brush each side of each pineapple piece with the glaze (you can also marinate overnight in a zip-lock bag). Here are some suggestions for glazes:

3 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice

1 tablespoon melted butter, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/8 teaspoon ginger

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, ½ cup honey, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, 1 teaspoon soy sauce.

4 tablespoons molasses, 4 tablespoons melted butter, 2 tablespoon lime juice

½ cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon

1 can coconut milk, 1 ½ cups sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon

A variation on the glaze method is to dip the pineapple rings in a mixture of melted butter and lime juice and then into a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon. Shake off the excess sugar and they are ready to go on the grill.

Spray the grill with non-stick cooking spray. Put the pineapple on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes on each side. Cook only until the outside starts to turn brown and grill marks appear. Don't overcook or it will turn mushy. Remove from the grill and brush with glaze one last time. Serve as is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or fruit sorbet. It doesn't get much better than this!

Tips For Grilling Steaks on a Gas Grill

Grilled to Perfection: Tips to Keep the Sizzle in Your Gas Grilled Steak 

Are you tired of guessing the best ways to prepare the grill and the meat? Have you eaten enough over-cooked, dry steak? Have you wondered how restaurants produce those steaks with the picture perfect grilling pattern?  If you answered 'yes' to any of those questions, then you will appreciate these simple tips.  Here are some answers to common questions about grilling steaks.   


What temperature? Before you get started, determine how everyone likes their steak cooked.  Use the highest heat for rare or medium-rare, and medium heat for medium or well-done. This sounds counterintuitive, but the rarer steaks need to cook fast at a high heat in order to sear the outside and keep the inside rare. The more well-done steaks should cook slowly on a medium heat in order to avoid burning the outside and drying out the inside. 


How to prepare the grill? Oil the grill by brushing a thin layer of oil on the grates.  You can also rub the steak fat onto the grate using tongs. 


How to prepare the meat? While the grill is heating, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature before placing on the grill. Rinse and trim the fat. 


How to treat the meat? Keep the steaks moist and tender by coating with a thin layer of cooking oil and the seasoning of your choice. A little salt and as much pepper as you like are good default seasonings. You can also try garlic powder, or a dash of cayenne pepper.  


When to flip the steak?  Look for signs that the steak is starting to bleed through. You'll see small red spots, which will tell you it's time to flip the steak over. 

Although you only need to flip it once, flipping it multiple times will create a nice criss-cross pattern.  Grill each steak for one minute.  Turn on the grill on the other side for one minute.  Then, turn and replace at a  45-degree angle for half of the remaining cooking time. Turn once more at a different 45-degree angle for the final minutes on the grill. 


How long should it cook? Although a thermometer (see below) is suggested, it's good to have a general idea of how long to cook each steak.  Here are some general guidelines, depending on the thickness of the steak: 

1" Thick Steaks - Rare 8-10 minutes, Medium 12-14 minutes, Well 16-20 minutes
1 1/2" Thick Steaks - Rare 10-16 minutes, Medium 16-20 minutes, Well 22-26 minutes
2" Thick Steaks - Rare 12-16 minutes, Medium 18-22 minutes, Well 24-28 minutes



When is the meat done? We all know the cut and look method to determine of the meat is done.  This isn't ideal, because if it's too late, then you've overcooked the steak. If it's too soon, then you run the risk of drying out the meat. This is the perfect time to use a meat thermometer, ideally a meat fork. 


When is the meat ready to eat?  The steak continues to cook for abut 5minutes after you remove it from the grill. Keep this in mind when determining the optimal temperature for your preferred 'doneness'.  Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before eating.

Few things say summer like the sizzle and aroma of a steak cooking on your gas grill.  Grilling the perfect steak may be easier than you realize. And if you follow these easy tips, you'll be sure to dazzle your guests and family.  Just remember that with a little preparation, some patience, and the right tools, grilling the perfect steak to please everyone is easy. Follow these tips, and you can just sit back and relax.  Let your grill do the work for you.

Preparing Your Cedar Plank For Grilling

Grilled salmon is a summer favorite, but truly fresh salmon can be quite delicate, with a tendency to flake apart the moment you try to turn it or take it off the grill. This is a sign of quality, but can be frustrating for the grill master. The simple solution is to use cedar planks for grilling. Cedar plank salmon not only makes the grilling process foolproof, but the subtle flavors of the wood have a delightful affect on your finished product. Here are some explanations and suggestions for how to grill salmon on cedar planks.

The first step is picking out the proper cedar planks for grilling. Although technically it is fine to go to your local lumber store and have some rough planks cut up for you, you need to be absolutely sure that the wood hasn't not been through any kind of chemical treatment, and of course you want to have a smooth enough board that it won't give your salmon (and hence diners) slivers. If you have a good lumber source, go for it. If not, we recommend you buy cedar planks specifically intended for grilling. These are sold at many local kitchen stores, and are widely available online.

Once you have the wood for your salmon, you need to prepare it. Before grilling, the wood should be soaked for 30 minutes to two hours. Remember, you are going to be placing this directly on the grill, and you need to make sure it is soaked enough that it is a grilling tool, rather than grilling fuel. This step can be an extra opportunity to spice up your board. If it works with the recipe you have chosen, try adding some cider or white wine to the soaking water, or perhaps include some fresh herbs in the brew.

When your plank has emerged from its bath and been patted dry with paper towels, give it a good rub with olive oil, and possibly a bit of sea salt or other seasoning. You can also give your salmon a nice bed to lie on - try putting down a layer of lemon slices or green onions. Preparing the fish in this fashion provides many chances to layer in subtle flavors, but resist the urge to use any overpowering seasonings. The sweet, woody hint of the cedar should still come through in your finished dish.

Prepare your salmon according to the recipe you have chosen. Arrange it on the plank, and then place the plank over indirect heat on the grill. Close the lid and wait, but start checking it regularly after 10 minutes. You should not flip the salmon, just watch as the meat starts to turn opaque, and take it off when it has changed all the way through. Cedar planks for grilling take the trouble out of the equation, and add a wonderful, natural flavor to your meal.

Cajun Bourbon Grilled Chicken Recipe

I just put this simple recipe together and tested it yesterday. Talk about layer upon layer of flavor! The brown sugar and bourbon marinade gives the meat sweetness and full flavor from within. The Creole spices provide a nice tangy surface.

While you can use pre-mixed Cajun or Creole spice blends as a substitute for my mix (described below the chicken recipe), it would be well worth your while to mix from my instructions (or tweak it a little if you'd like). In "I'm Just Here for the Food," Alton Brown describes how he bought a jar of spice mix with a full color photo of a celebrity chef on the label. At the same time he bought all of the individual ingredients that were listed in the chef's mix. He put together his own blend of the raw ingredients and, using a pharmacy scale, discovered that the markup on the chef's mixture was about 500%! It will take a little time to mix these, but if you do, you'll have plenty left over for when you make jambalaya, gumbo, blackened fish or chicken, etc.

Big Green Egg Grill - Smoking and BBQ

The great thing about the Big Green Egg Grill is the diversity of cooking choices that you have available to you, including the option of smoking foods, grilling, as well as outdoor baking.

The Green Egg Grill is a well designed barbecue that's easy to set up and very simple to use.  It is available in a number of different sizes, depending on the amount of cooking that you need to do.  It comes in a mini version, what they call an original version, large, and extra large.  Obviously the more food that you tend to cook with each barbecue, or the more guests that you entertain, then the more cooking space you need.  This will usually lead you to one of the larger models.  If you're in doubt give the company a call since their customer service is excellent.

This grill is very functional in all types of weather.  So even if you live in northern climates you can obtain great cooking results even in the middle of winter when it's snowing and cold.  The key is the unique shape and construction of the BBQ which uses ceramic for the walls.  The ceramic material can withstand very cold temperatures, and it also allows the grill to heat up to as much as 1800°F.  Of course when you're outside cooking in the middle of a snowstorm your next door neighbor may think that you're a bit odd, but they won't think so the next time you invite them over to try some of your barbecued food.

The construction of the Green Egg Grill allows it to maintain a consistent temperature for a long time even though you are using traditional charcoal.  For example, if you want to slow cook ribs or other meets at a very low temperature, say 250°F for several hours you don't have to worry about temperature variations nearly as much as you would with a normal BBQ.

This barbecue is very versatile and allows you to slow cook your food, but it's also great for smoking meats and grilling different types of vegetables and fish.  You can also use this grill to simulate a brick oven to cook pizzas with exceptionally flavorful.  Everyone's heard about the famous fire cooked pizzas in New York, and this grill can simulate those conditions with the extreme heating and brick ceramic walls.

As well, there are a number of accessories that are made specifically for this grill, including a walk gadget that allows you to stir fry rice or vegetables very easily.  Another accessory that many people will find useful is the handy fish great.  Grilling fish has always been a difficult thing for many people to master, because it is very easy to overcook fish and lose all of the flavor and enjoyment.  With this barbecue even the most novice chef should be able to create tender fish dishes with the slow consistent cooking.

This is a long-lasting product, and your investment should last for many years.  Conventional barbecues cannot come close to some of the flavors that are achievable with the Green Egg Grill.

The 3 Steps to Permanent Weight Loss Success

You might have thought that getting rid of belly fat or any excess fat in your body is as easy as one week training in the gym. This is not always the case. It may be easy but the tough part is maintaining your routine even if you have already lost all those weight. Yes, losing weight is a challenge before and after the diet and exercise process but when great results surface, everything pays off.

The shedding of pounds is just a temporary task which can be followed by a steady series of weight loss. For this reason, if you wish to lose weight you need to choose a diet plan or an exercise program than can help you have permanent weight loss.

Here are three steps that can help you on your way to permanent weight loss.

1. Exercise, exercise, exercise
Everybody knows that exercise is the best answer towards losing weight. This fact is nothing new but it is most probably a crucial judge if you have succeeded at losing weight and maintaining it. For exercise to help you lose those extra pounds, you need to take action for at least 150 minutes per week. Nonetheless, ten minutes of exercise per day is as good as 150 minutes of exercise in one week. This shorter span helps others exercise despite their excuse for not having time doing it.

Once you have tried extensive exercise training or light exercises you can always have lesser sessions but do not stop exercising because those muscles are going to sag if they are not maintained and most of your weight will be converted to water and fat weight. Discipline in exercising is the key towards permanent weight loss.

2. Lay off with the "Thin" thinking
It is a proven fact that more people become more successful in losing weight when their motivation is geared towards staying healthy rather than becoming thin. If you are one of the many who still thinks that losing weight is all about being thin then you should change your mindset as early as you can because you may be wasting so much time. When it comes to food choose the ones that a will help keep your body healthy rather than fret about foods that can affect how much you weigh. If you lay off with the "thin" goal then you are surely on your way to a healthy and permanent weight loss.

3. Eat less fat
Grilled pork chops, burgers, salad with mayo dips, fries, and pizza are some of the most delicious foods in the world. However, foods as fatty as this stuff are the worst culprits to your health. These do not only give you those extra pounds but they can bring you risks for heart diseases and diabetes. This is why if you want a steady and permanent weight loss you need to put in mind that limiting high fat foods in your diet is essential. Fats have more calories that protein and carbohydrates. Thus, it is empirical that you watch what you are eating before all your hard work for losing weight will all be gone just because of an untrimmed diet.
