Paul K. - Things have changed a little now. She changed the date so now Im not the one cooking she is. She still wants a rub or recipe to help her out. The "parameters" are that she is making macaroni salad, squash casserole and grilled corn to go along with the chicken. I agree with Jim on the...

I have been asked to cook Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast for one of my wifes coworkers. I really dont like them and almost never cook them. My plan right now is salt and pepper with some olive oil. Grill direct on the performer until charred nicely then moving to indirect to finish. Then I was...

I have seen the second link before and was thinking of trying that one. I just dont have the leaves really handy except maybe the oak. I only have maybe six cukes in the garden that are the right size but I have a bunch that are right on there heels so I think I have a week or so to do some...

I like to add all kinds of sausages like kielbasa, beef hot links, chorizo, even hot dogs. I chop them up in bite size pieces on the cutting board (that seems to always be around) and set out some toothpicks and hot mustard. Makes for a good appetizer to get you through the cook.

Does anyone have a sour pickle recipe? I have a good friend of mine thats a little older that says he loves sour pickles and he cant find any good ones. I told him that if I had the cucumbers from my garden I would try to make them. Any help would be appreciated.

I just cooked one of these yesterday for "Italian Beef". Mine was 11 lbs. I cooked to 130 on my remote thermo and checked it with my thermopen in a couple of spots and towards the back at the bottom it only read 119. I put it back in a 300 degree oven until that area was 130. I let it rest for...

Thank you Kevin for the recipe. I made the Mango Cream Sauce tonight. When I thought about it I changed my mind on how to prepare the Mahi. I thought with the cream sauce I might want something a little spicy. I had some Walkers Wood Jerk Sauce in the fridge so I painted the Mahi with that and...

Thanks for the reply Kevin.I make a Mango Chutney that I serve woth jerk dishes and my wife loves it. Mango Cream sauce sounds like it would be right up her alley. Do you mind sharing the recipe?

One of my wifes coworkers gave us a nice fillet of Mahi Mahi. Im planning on grilling it on the Performer. Does anyone have any tips or recipes? Im not flying blind here but I always look to this board for advice. My plan at this point is to season with salt and pepper and maybe a little Old...

Does anyone use a basalmic vinegar they would recommend? My wife is making caprese salad this weekend and wants me to pick up the vinegar. I checked Cooks Illustrated and there are a couple that where recommended but most were more than $25 a bottle. Im more in the $10-$15 or less range.

Ive made this same recipe a couple of times in the oven. I made the giardinera recipe also. I used sirloin tip and after it rested I sliced it thin on the meat slicer and added it back to the juices. I took the giardinera and pulsed it a couple of times in the food processor to give it an almost...

I have searched the site but havent found a definitive recipe and technique for short ribs. I found them at a local meat market for $2.49 lb. and they looked great so I bought a bunch of them. Im thinking about rubbing them in the yum-yum seasoning thats in the cooking topics section then...

If you could get your hand on a kettle or two you could do roadside chicken.Its pretty easy and inexpensive plus it puts on a show when your basting it.Ive used the recipe with wings and added a little kick in the marinade with hot sauce and tossed them in the end with buffalo wing sauce. Mighty...

I have just been given the same exact grill. Mine looks to be in the same shape. I wanted a project and my buddy had it under a cover but outside since he bought a new grill a couple years ago. Ive checked on the parts and I think I can get mine going for around $100 depending on how much...

I bought a used Performer with the new style 1 lb. tank igniter but it came with a full 5 lb. tank. Id be willing to sell it to you but the shipping might be an issue. I was looking for a Blue Performer when I got mine which is green. Any interest in selling yours as is? Again shipping might be...

I got to use my new toy for the first time last night. I had to cook for the wifes Aunts birthday party. I made Roadside Chicken. I had 8 large breast and 8 quarters. This was my first time lighting the performer and it worked like a charm. I set it up for indirect with a basket on each side. I...

Thanks guys. I looked everywhere the article I had read was the link in the thread Tim sent but both were good reading. I would have never found them.

I just read a thread on here the other day about baked potatoes but now I cant find it. Ive got to cook for my wifes Aunts birthday party tonight. We are responsible for Roadside Chicken and baked potatoes. My plan is to poke holes in them, roll in olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt. Place...

I just got this Saturday. I was trying to hold out for a Blue one but this was too good of deal and its in great shape. Im hoping to fire it up tonight for another round of Roadside Chicken.
