We had some friends over yesterday to hang out on a beautiful Fall day, one of which brought a box of oysters. We added some sliders to the mix. What a great day!

Some of our friends have started an annual wing/rib cook-off. Nothing too serious...mostly just another excuse to get together with great friends, let the kids go crazy and cook some good eats. There were 7 "cooks"...I didn't win anything but had an absolute blast! Here's our "kitchens" (3 of...

I'm cooking in a backyard comp on Saturday so tonight was supposed to be a prep night for that, wasn't planing on cooking. The stars aligned and I got the day off tomorrow so, why not get out in front of my grills, right? Some simple chicken and Winter squash. Chicken seasoned with poultry...

Our favorite grilled chicken. Never disappoints. After a 2 hour brine and 1.5 hours drying out in the fridge...ready to go on. On for 15 minutes un-sauced. First turn, first saucing. Second turn, second and final saucing. Campbell took this pic...way better than the one I...

Been a while since I posted...haven't cooked much lately. Recovering form hurricane Irene, bailing out the basement from tropical storm Lee and life in general has seriously interfered with the addiction... :( Posted this cook many times before but I needed to get back on the horse. Our...

T-Bones seasoned with S&P. Russet potatoes peeled, then cored with a melon baller, filled with diced onion and a dash of woosty and then wrapped with bacon. Asparagus wrapped with provolone and prosciutto. Potatoes on. Potatoes finishing up. Asparagus on...Moved it direct after...

We've done this one before with a whole chicken but it was just the 3 of us tonight so we just did a couple of breasts. Always good... Chipotle-Lime Chicken from Claire Robinson ready to go on. On for about an hour at 400ish. Off. While the chicken was cooling enough to be...

Ran across this video on another site and wanted to give it a go. I stuffed the deboned chicken with a peach chutney from Epicurius. Ready to go. An hour later (Jacques says this should take about a minute...yeah, no!) Stuffed and tied (my trussing skills need some work). On at...

We got these two recipes from Tyler Florence and Shape Magazine... Loosely timed this cook with some vodka/rocks. :D Tenderloin ready to go on, full cocktail. On, seared 4 minutes a side. A half a drink later (16 minutes)... ...moved it to indirect to bring it up to ~155*...

Got this one from Giada. Burgers ready for the grill. On around 7 minutes a side. Off. Plated with some store bought, oven roasted sweet potato fries. Simple but very tasty! Thanks for lookin'!

My Father-in-Law stopped by today and dropped off some tuna that a friend of his caught off the Outer Banks this weekend. Here's what we did with it. Tuna steaks marinated in soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vin, garlic, ginger, scallion and black pepper. Edamame that had been been steamed...

Another one from Cook's Country. Ready to go. Chicken and tomatoes on. Corn finishing up. Chicken and tomatoes flipped, mozzarella added to the tomatoes. Everything off. Plated. Pretty good. Not my favorite but it was tasty. Thanks for lookin'

This was all Leigh-Ann's doing...as I've said many times before (and it's the truth), I'm just the monkey in front of the grill. She's the brilliance behind most of our meals. I'm just the one that puts her creations to heat. She knocked this one out of the park. Phenomenal meal! Porterhouses...

Last night Leigh-Ann asked if I wanted to grill steaks tomorrow or have leftovers out of the freezer since it was going to be so hot. Easy choice. I'm a Southern boy and not afraid of a little heat! My gorgeous bride of 10 years came home tonight with some beautiful skirts...and okra...and corn...

Life has gotten in the way of my addiction recently and I haven't been able to participate here as I'd like. I've been lurking though and there has been some phenomenal food coming off of your grills. Awesome! Finally got a free day and was able to get out by my grills. Got this one from Seven...

I've been wanting to try carnitas for a while. Decided to make my father-in-law the guinea pig on this one for Father's Day. Went with this recipe. Browning. Ready for the braise. In the braise. Out and cooling. Broken into bite sized pieces... ...and back into...

Recently I was in a "Grilling/BBQ Iron Chef" competition. Secret ingredients, eggs. Everything that was put to heat had to be done outside, over charcoal/lump/wood. Our three man team came up with the theme "Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner". I was in charge of lunch. Here's my entry... "Picnic Lunch...

Quick post because the Sox/Yanks game is about to come on... Ground pork & minced onion patties, onion slices and corn. Burgers & onions on, direct for 3 minutes a side. Corn already had a head start. Burgers & onions moved indirect... ...until they are done. Game...

Both of these came from Food Network... Chipotle-Lime Chicken Tacos Almost-Famous Corn Salsa Seasoned chicken ready to go on. On, indirect for about 1.5 hours as close to 400* as I could get (got a late start and had some yo-yo issues while rushing things) Off and resting/cooling to...

Got this one from Food Network Magazine. It was delicious!! Skirts rubbed with a chili rub and yukons seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper and Penzy's Northwoods seasoning. Potatoes getting a head start. Skirts on. Everything off. Plated. Quite possibly the best...

Not sure if this belongs in the "Grilling" or "General Barbecue" section. It was done on a OTG so here it goes... Been down at the Rivah all weekend (no internet) and missed a hell of a lot of good food going up on this board! Awesome!! Didn't take many pictures of the cooks but did get a few...

The title pretty much describes it... Grillables. Three types of shrimp; prawns wrapped in bacon and in a store bought 30 minute spicy terriaki marinade, Leigh-Ann's and mine rubbed with old bay, and Campbell's plain with no seasoning. Biguns on with the corn...

Meat and pota...er, I mean, meat and "grain-like crop grown primarily for its edible seeds" tonight. Grilled green beans too. Grilled items ready to go on. 3 minutes a side, rotating at the 1:30 marks. Beans on during the rest...maybe 7-8 minutes, tossing constantly. Off...
