Steak and Geeks
I just wanted to let everyone know what I’ve been up to. I know I haven’t been posting to Two Guys Tech at all this week, and it’s mostly because I’ve been working on a series of posts over at my personal blog.
You see, this is the second annual “Command of the Grill Week”. One of the things I enjoy doing while I’m AFK is grilling.
Back in 2006, Weber had this series of grilling competitions on Marine Corps Bases across the country. They then took the top 3 recipes from each location, and a slew of recipes from celebrities who are also Marines, and put them all in a handy book called “Command of the Grill".
The book is just full of delicious recipes, and it’s only $10. Better yet, every penny of that goes to charities that help wounded service members, or helps the families of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice.
Besides eating delicious steaks for this event, I’m in no way profiting from the sales of the book. Being a Marine myself, I was already interested in the book, and once I found out who it’s helping, I was sold.
So, for the week leading up to the Marine Corps’ Birthday, which is November 10th, I’m posting some photos and a write up of a recipe from the book. There are a few recipes posted over at the Weber “Command of the Grill” site, and I did all 3 of them this year.
If you can, stop by my blog and take a look at the recipes, and tell as many people as you can about this book. There’s lots of ways we can support our troops, but I don’t know of any as delicious. Not to mention, Christmas is coming up, and this makes a really great present.
Semper Fi!
That sounds great I like to keep an eye on the time and flip frequently so that the meat doesnt burn.If you want more recipes or if you want to take a look at the collection of tips I have for grilling you can visit www.cookingandgrillinoutdoors.com
I like to keep an eye on the time as well, not to mention relying on a thermometer, but to be honest, I try to only flip meats once. That's the way I was taught when I ran a grill, it's supposed to help keep the meat from drying out.
Although I can't vouch for frequent flipping drying out the meat, I can tell you that it messes up the grill marks :-)
Thanks for stopping by! I'll have to check out your site.
