Get Your Grill On

I’d like to lay down paragraphs all about the photograph that you see perched above us there. But I don’t believe it’s really necessary. However, I do want to make clear that I did slice the top off the bulb so the extra virgin could penetrate. Then, the bacon on top completes it.
Once done, smoosh […]

There are 2 kinds of grocery shoppers, 1 makes a list and gets what they need. The other (me) makes no list and winds up with a cart full of what he didn’t necessarily expect to buy. This is a lot of fun and I enjoy it each time. The downside is that I forgot […]

Oh, which item to tackle first? The Rotal Barby or the Tofino style pork shoulder? Before we do either, I want to make it perfectly clear that I most certainly did not use the word Barby to be cheeky. Personally, if someone says to me, “Let’s put another shrimp on the barby.” I’ll cleave them […]

I can’t speak for everyone, but I’m finding this year still darned cold. Sure I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and we don’t have “real winters” here. Even so, when it’s 42, windy and loaded with wet humidity, I find it tough to saunter out in to the yard to fire up […]

Such a nice introduction to a new year. It’s been icy cold in the mornings, the excitement of the holidays has past (thank goodness) and the new year is … well new. A great time to sit back, relax and see what happens next.
Uh, that would be in invite from Chilebrown to an afternoon of […]

Ladies and Gentlemen, it can now be revealed. I hope you didn’t lose too much sleep over the weekend about the ever elusive man of mystery who is joining the Get Your Grill On Team. It’s Dr. Biggles of Meat Henge fame. I’m sure many of you have guessed already his identity already, […]
