wifey made meatloaf tonight !

Also, upon further examination of the gif, the front of that grill is nasty. WTH.

I trust all of my my OOTB brethren take better care of their man-stoves than that.

Yep . . that is a nasty looking grill front. On top of all that it's a cheap-ass 5 burner Was-Mart grill that you can get for $169.

Fukk that cheap sheit . . I love my Weber Gas grill and my BGE when I grill with charcoal.
 
and feed to some prisoner you may have tied up in your basement

Can't bring myself to buy one. $700-1000 no way, I can buy 10 Weber's with that. My current one is 9 yo.

They are worth it if you are a grill connoisseur. I also cook for larger crowds, so I needed 2. Babybacks will literally melt in your mouth

While I prefer to cook over lump charcoal, I am a big fan of marinated meats, and have found that cooking over charcoal does nothing to add to the flavor of such . .

When I grill steaks over charcoal, I add sassafras strips for added flavour.

At what point do you add meat to charcoal? I wait till half the black is off the coal. I never use match lite garbage or starter fluid. Charcoal chimney all the way

Like the thought of the sassafras strips, Gray . . I'm gonna have to try that.

For my BGE, I will use 91% rubbing alcohol . . it ignites the lump charcoal in a hurry and it burns off clean, with no effect to the taste whatsoever.

The chimney is the way to go for my other Weber kettle grill . . not so, with a BGE tho, as I only have to replenish the charcoal chamber every 3rd or 4th use, with that I can fully cook a strip steak in 8-9-10 minutes time . .

They add a unique flavor.

I am in process of setting up my wood working shop/ outdoor kitchen. I have a nice area picked out for a BGE down the road. Heard nothing but good reviews on them

Yeah, that was me. I built a 1800' shed/kitchen combo. I am pouring a 11' pad down the backside to cover eventually. Will house all my grills and outdoor stuff. The inside will have custom cabinets with a 12' farm table I'm going to build. Also planning a fire pit for the front area. The building is 65' long with half of it being a wood shop. The rest is a full bath, storage, and kitchen/dining.

I wish I had your $ . . I am so envious, Gray.

Please make me even more envious and share a pic when all is completed . . TIA.

I want to do the kitchen in a rustic style look. My dad has a band saw for cutting rough lumber. I'll eventually find someone with timber to cut. Will look to do some sort of Ship lap for the wall. It's all drywall at the moment

I am blessed with a good paying business. This is a dream I've always had. We live fairly modest. After I finish this, we will work on retirement funding.

Never have, Ticket . . that does look like a very nicely done flank steak.

I do cook my marinated flanks over charcoal . . I have an awesome and very easy marinade that I use for my flanks:

2 tbsp. of brown sugar
2 tbsp. of yellow mustard
small can of crushed pineapple
soy sauce to cover

I mix the first 3, then only enough soy sauce to cover, marinade overnight or for an extra day.

I use a simple lemon juice/soy sauce marinade on steak. Everyone seems to like it.

Try the direct coal method. It’s pretty awesome.
 
Throw in some garlic and a little brown sugar and you have the marinade I used for kebobs at one of the tailgates last year. There were no leftovers, lol.

My dad used the lemon/juice soy sauce marinade for as long as I can remember. I stopped using it for a while and my entire family griped. All I know is after about an hour in that stuff the meat is always tender and delicious.
