Pastrami on the Grill

No Mexican food this time, but I got a packaged corned beef brisket (in a brine) at the market. I didn’t know what to do with this piece of meat, so I went online to see what I can do. Lo and behold, I was searching GrillinFools.com and came across a few corned beef brisket [...]

Reverse Seared Country Style Ribs

With the success of the Reverse Seared Pork Steaks I decided to try the method with country style ribs.  These meaty hunks lend themselves nicely to this process as they are not as thin as pork steaks and can handle extensive periods of smoke without drying out.  The process is fairly simple but extremely satisfying…

Foiled Beef Brisket – A Story of Adapting to a Major Grilling Setback

One of the hardest things to teach people about grilling is dealing with ever changing circumstances that may or may not be out of their control.  Grilling on a muggy summer day is much different than grilling in a blustery Autumn day and certain things should be done to account for the different weather.  Grilling [...]

Healthy Grilling – Smoked Turkey Breast

In an effort to show that not all grilling is fatty pork or cholesterol filled red meat the Grillin Fools are trying to tackle the lighter side of grilling.  We’ve been doing more veggies and fish lately and Dad decided to do this old favorite – Smoked Turkey Breast.  Click below to see step by [...]

Rotisserie Chicken Smoked on a Gas Grill – That’s Right, Smoked on a Gas Grill

I give those with gas grills a lot of grief.  “Why not just haul your stove out onto the deck to grill,” I often say.  I make no attempts to hide the fact that I am a charcoal purist, but I understand that some people like the ease and convenience of a gas grill.  Other [...]
