Crazy About BBQ

Fat, juicy steak

It might take longer to start but the food always taste better. I so love our charcoal bbq grill! Iv been nagging him to get a charcoal bbq for as long as I can remember but living in a apartment complex before, we cant use one since its the same as open fire or something like that. So when we moved to our new place, thats among the 1st thing that we try to get. We went from Home Depot to Lowes and most of them are the small round ones which would have made me happy but there's a man in the house too and him being a man, must have a bigger bbq grill! :P

Thanks to our new charcoal grill!

So when we were at Big Lots and looking at the grills, he saw this unit on display and its the only one there. It has no price tag nor the stock number. We asked the staff there to check on the price and even they were not sure. After like 30min, they decided to sell it to us for $65 incl tax. Well, actually I wasnt there when he bought it. I was at the other side of the store looking for other things but at $65, it is really a bargain since the small round ones cost between $45-$55.

Now, I dont use the oven anymore for grilling. Last weekend we had another round of bbq steak and Honey BBQ Wings which Im telling you, tasted so much better on the charcoal grill that Michael had 2nd serving. I tweaked it even more by adding some chili powder for that umph taste. Please do apologise that I didnt have picture of the chicken wings since they were gone pretty quickly. I promise that the next time we had them, Id post the picture.

For the steak however, I didn use much seasoning. I marinate them with Adobo seasoning overnight and lather some bbq sauce only when they're on the grill. We both like our steak done without any blood running. Im still ok with medium well but he only takes his well done. His younger brother would take his steak basically when its still running! well, you know waht I mean. 30 sec on the grill each side. Definitely not for us. Now how do you like your steak?
