Bear with me; this is a long one. Made 25 lb of sausage last weekend with buddy Milosh. 15 of medium hot Italian, and 5 lbs each of breakfast sausage and garlic sausage (Milosh later smoked the last one). Yup, I got a nice sampling of each.
Milosh prepping.

I parboiled some of the Italian sausage the other day, and grilled some tonight for dinner. Weather was looking grim, so I made it an early dinner. We ended with a mere passing shower.

Are those actual grill marks?

Brussels nearly ready. Off the grill and tossed with a little balsamic vinaigrette.

Plated, along with corn with miso/butter/ancho butter, guac, sweet peppers, brussels, grilled red and poblano peppers on a tortilla, and my friend Sherry's home pickled onions (delish!).

And that was this evening's Italian-Mexican dinner. A cultural mash-up, but it all tasted good. Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Cheers and thanks for visiting.
 
Dang Gary! Looks like you have the Perfect Man Cave and the Perfect cooking down!

All looks Perfect Sir!
 
Hi Gary. This sausages looks fantastic. For a long time I plan too.

Now to Milosh: This is the name of the Slavic peoples (by the way - my name is the same, but friends call me Mildo. This is the reason why I am on the forum for you Mildo

) Is he or his ancestors were from Czechoslovakia or from the former Yugoslavia?

Now to CIGs: Congratulations on a great choice. I have not seen better CIGs for Weber than these (let people say what they want).

My tips: Take advantage of residual heat after cooking, and purify it with a brush, then oiled. The same before cooking. Let CIGS warm, clean the brush and oiled up, then throw some meat there. You will not have any problems with maintenance. Enjoy it Gary!
 
Thanks all. Btw, that's friend Milosh (originally from Czech Republic) in his man cave -- stainless steel sink and work table in his garage. Sweet! He and his family are very dear to me. Thanks Mildo for CIG tips. Appreciated!
