If You Could Grill Anywhere............?

[Bob H.]

If you could grill anywhere in the U.S.A. where would it be and what would you grill?

On the Pacific coast on the beach at Bannock Oregon. Could be just a burger with that
view.

How about you?

Great thread, imo. Need to think on this one...

A place here called Drakes bay. Get an oak fire going, cooking steaks and watching the pacific coast sunset.

I'm tempted to choose somewhere I've never been, but that seems a bit like hosting a dinner party with a dish you've never cooked before...risky.

So I'll choose a tried-and true location. Wind River Range, Wyoming. Haven't been there in 30 years, but there's this unbelievably gorgeous meadow that I swear was placed by God himself. I dream of it often. I'd be willing to hike-in my JJ, cook a steak and potato, and watch the stars do their thing. Pic coming.

I goofed! I should have said Bandon!

Leeward side of an island in Hawaii, grilling some fresh fish for lunch, along with fresh grilled pineapple and a fruity cocktail like a lavaflow.

Could be on a Smokey Joe or a kettle.

After lunch a quick swim to cool off and then a nap as the afternoon breeze comes along.

At Aaron Franklin’s bbq joint, doing brisket and hoping to learn a few things to up my brisket game.

Down in the Keys, there is a motel on the Gulf side called Popp's. We used to stay there and fish by boat during the day and fish off their dock by night. We always had the dock to ourselves. It was always so beautiful, peaceful and quiet. Would love to go there and grill our catch of the day,

Obviously, on top of Old Smoky.

All covered with cheese?

Well, anywhere with all you Guys and Gals would be my first choice but if you turned me down I'd want to be with Steven Raichlen and his friend Frank Ostini at the Hitching Post... a beef Ribeye on his Santa Maria.

Honestly on a nice evening, (where I don't have to listen to ahole neighbor's dogs barking), a nice gentle summer evening, nice bottles of delightful beverages, our little table for 2, my little TV on a Cubs or Sox game, no place than my own deck

 

[Steve Petrone]

no place than my own deck

That's what I was thinking...if I'm at one of those picturesque locations, I'd prefer someone cook for me. I remember being on the Pacific coast with my wife in a very highly regarded restaurant with a window seat at sunset.

 

[Timothy F. Lewis]

Home is best!

 

[Andy Kaminski]

We do a 4th of July cook here and there is no other place I’d rather be.

 

[DanHoo]

Home is best!

OK, now I need to move, to a beach on the leeward side of a Hawaiian island.

Setting up the gofundme right now.

The condo we stayed at in Poipu Beach Kauai had Weber Genesis grills around the pool. We stopped at a mom & pop grocery store & picked up a steak, tub of potato salad, a slice of pre-made garlic bread & some longboard beer - just kept it simple. Grilled up that steak, had dinner out by the pool & watched the sunset. That was one incredibly tender steak/ memorable dinner!

Haena Beach, north shore of Kuaui.

Bought fresh catch at the Hanalei fish market. Grilled it on the Weber on the second story lanai of our vacation rental. Nice ocean view.

Bonus was picking limes off the trees in the backyard to make daiquiris.

Totally awesome.
