Ken, Thank you for the information about the Lebanese 7-spice mix. I just found some hits on GOOGLE that will probably provide some sources and probably a recipe or two for the spice mix itself. I see that "Alissa" says that fenugreek is a no-no in this spice mix. But I have always liked it...

Ahhhhh! Perfection if I've ever seen it! A future TVWB barbecuer and griller (with his Dad's encouragement) if I've ever seen one! You have good reason to be proud of him just as he is now! I'm looking forward to seeing photos of you two during the learning process in a few years. His...

UPDATE: I was hosing the leaves and pine straw off my deck near the grill when I heard a clunk. Apparently the flexible hose from the grill was very loose and fell off from the copper connection to the gas line. It must have been barely disconnected for weeks but still hanging loosely to the...

Not yet, Timothy. Thank you for asking. Life keeps getting in the way and things seem break down when one can't possibly spare the time or focus to fix them. I do want to give the grill a thorough cleaning to make sure that the burners are not obstructed. When I do resolve this I'll be sure...

My heart aches for you. We have lost 3 Golden Retrievers over the years, all of them with cancer around the age of 10. I'm thankful that you have been able to love yours a little longer. Each one of ours have impacted our lives, each a little differently depending on their fantastic, but...

I'll have to check to see if I have a shut-off valve, which might be under the deck. In any case nothing has changed and the grill lit just fine last week. I have some chores that need immediate attention and I'll have to put the grill off for a few days. My Honey-Do List is growing...

Bob and Clint, your suggestions seem to be a reasonable thing to do to check. I wound up iron skilletting the steaks and they did turn out very good (great crust), but I still have to check out my grill. Thanks for the input and I will try it in the morning. It is so nice to have such good...

Sorry. My last post has disappeared. Not propane; natural gas. No smell of gas which would be unusual under the circumstances. All worked perfectly as usual when I last grilled last week. Nothing has changed with the connection to the gas line as far as I know. My opinion is that the...

I tried my big butane torch over the burners BRIEFLY, trying to dry them off while clicking the "on" button to try to dry them off (not too smart, huh?) but that didn't work either). Luckily no explosion and eyebrows still intact.

A very humid (after late afternoon showers) evening. I cannot light my 3-year-old Genesis. I've tried the hand-held lighter in several spots near the burners and also in the small hole on the left side of the underpart of the grill. I cannot get it lit. Can anyone please advise? Rita

From what I have read, Alton Brown and Bobby Flay just might be in a list of owners of the Food Network. Emeril too. It would be worth investigating.

Many of us here are members of Cook'sIllustrated.com. They have a good variety of KEBAB RECIPES & METHODS and their recipes are tested and very rarely fail. If you are not a member (there is a fee), they might have a short trial period available. Definitely 2 wooden skewers or 1 flat one per...

Chris, you might enjoy Mike Mills' Apple City BBQ Sauce, although it might not be quite as appley as you'd like, but it would be a start. I think this one has won some awards. For more of an apple flavor, perhaps add some apple juice that has been reduced to a syrup. I would use a...

I just saw this today. It might be helpful: http://mybroadband.co.za/news/smartphones/172241-youve-been-charging-your-smartphone-the-wrong-way.html

Has anyone tried tossing the cut potatoes with a little cornstarch?

Best check your local Costco. Mine only carry boneless butts. If you plan to rub it first to get the rub into the interior of the cuts (I do) you might want to tie the roasts, which can get a bit floppy during the process, with ends wanting to poke out. Get a BIG ball of 100% cotton thick...

Jim, you piqued my interest. Try a Google search for "Caribbean rub for" and you'll get more ideas. Rita

For Indirect heat on my Genesis with 3 burners, I use a little higher heat on one of the burners on either side and turn off the other two. That works really well. Don't forget to rotate the meat or poultry occasionally. Rita

Not a recipe, Jim, but I have really enjoyed (by accident) the BADIA SAZON TROPICAL MSG Free Seasoning Blend with Coriander and Annatto. I have recently seen it in the ethnic section of Publix (Atlanta) for sure. Not certain about Kroger, but Kroger is in a Latino area and I'm pretty sure that...

Economy-wise you're right, Rich. I've tried buying large bottles of juices and simply used the leftover for a beverage. Of course when the bottle gets down to about 1 or 2 cups, I start a recipe that calls for 3 cups. And I have a problem with small bags of pucks wiggling themselves to the...
