Instead of your everyday average hotdog cook these big ones up and serve on buns. (Brown mustard really spices these up & serve some rinsed & dried sauerkraut on the side). You won't believe the flavor you get from charcoaling these bad boys. ;) Also, smoked sausage is great & chicken breast on the bones I find mouth watering. Enjoy your BBQ! :)|||Marinated pork tenderloin, Delicious!|||Pizza works great on the grill. All you have to do is prep work before hand. You can buy pre made crust, and sauce, then get some cheese, and onther toppings you think your guests may like and let everyone biuld their own pizza. Cooks best on a pizza stone, but will work in any pizza pan, even the foil pans. Just make sure your grill is pre-heated to 425. Have fun!|||Turkey legs (marinate in coffee,garlic and mustard for 6-8 hours before) Grill until temp is 180 to assure perfection. Portebello mushrooms - INGREDIENTS 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper 1 clove garlic, minced 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 4 portobello mushroom caps DIRECTIONS Preheat grill for medium heat.

Place mushrooms over indirect heat, cover, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes.

Panini Sandwich: Use rustic firm bread and make sandwiches with meat cheese roasted bell pepper and marinated tomato and buffalo mozzarella slices grill to toast and serve with Cesar salad. Hope this keeps your grill cooking this summer!|||When I want something diffrent I do ribs or kebobs or seafood The other thing I do is a london broil and then I make garlic bread with mozz. cheese melted on it but do not close it cook it open then slice the meat thin and put that in the middle and make little sandwichs out of it and do corn on the cob on the grill, potato salad, mac salad, coleslaw and deviled eggs, and a pickle and olive tray. Hope this helps|||Do a mini clambake. Buy a large bag of clams and soak overnight, you can get the cheaper ones and pour in some kosher salt and cornmeal to help them clean themselves out by the next day. Soak ears of corn, don't remove the husks just the silk for rewrapping and protection from burning on the grill. Small potatoes or larger ones, cut in half drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper. Some kielbasa, shrimp and maybe some mussels. Stay away from the lobsters if you want don't want to spend a fortune.|||Depends on how much work you want to put into it. I like to do Salmon Steaks. Marinate them overnight, you can find tons of recipes online. Maybe you like chicken? Try the infamous beer in butt chicken, otherwise known as beercan chicken.
