The grill is good for all meats, poultry, fish and many veggiesB|



Right but what cut?

I am a huge fan of a good Filet Mignon and a great Top Sirloin! :ph34r: Oh and Salmon!

I am a huge fan of grilled shrimp and ribs, but I cannot cook them very well myself. :$

Ribs need to be cooked at low heat so turn the vents nearly closed, check it often to make sure the coals are still burning.

Try the Cowboy charcoal, it is really good and does not need lighter fluid, you need less charcoal as well, plus it burns hotter.

Just rub the ribs with garlic powder, salt, pepper and some ground cayenne, or grind it in a cheapo coffee grinder.

A tiny bit of olive oil will help it stick to the meat.

You want ribs that have some fat on them, I don't like baby back ribs as much as I do St. Louis style ribs because they have a fuller flavor.

Even good beef ribs will be great if cooked slowly, you want the meat to feel soft to the touch in the package, harder texture means it has a lot of gristle and fat.

If you go to a place that still sells prime rib, you can ask them for the ribs because they are full of good meat.

Basically unless the meat is very lean you need to slow cook it.

Otherwise just sear and serve.

MEAT :)

Doesnt matter what it is; if it comes from an animal, it goes well on a grill.

Charcoal, lit with a chimney NOT fluid. ptui.
Prefer lump charcoal with good wood chunks.
Soak wood a day in advance.

I do have a gas fired smoker though.

Favorite meat would have to be the ribeye. Prefer at least 1" thick cut.

I know this may sound un-american but I don't like massive thick steaks...I prefer the medium to thin - pepper steaks more than a slab of meat 5 inches thick. I do like cooking beer can chicken...brautwurst, ribs and sometimes seafood like scallops and crab as well. Just depends on whats closest to the grill when the fire gets started.

as I saw in a McD's in Montreal... Take a hamburger, open it, throw away the meat patty, close, hand back to client :o:o:ph34r:

Here's a recipe for mushroom veggie burgers that's similar to the way I make them. Cooked mushrooms have a very "meaty" texture, which is otherwise hard to achieve with veggie burgers.

The difference in how I make them is that I chop up about 2/3 of the mushrooms fairly finely, and also include mashed-up tofu in the mix to boost the protein. A bit of soy sauce helps imitate a beefy flavor, if you wish. I also add some flour to the mix to help bind it (i.e., keep it from falling apart) when cooking.
