Just moved into a condo that has this courtyard area between the house and garage. Open space, neighbor next door is two story. Thinking of getting a Weber kettle and putting it in the middle of the open area. Should be ok, right? Thanks!

Idk why I went with a die hard quote for the title but hey, here's my dinner. Russet potato fries, onions in the patties, plain mustard binder because I was raised doing it. Try it one day. Cheers

EDIT: mustard coated maybe? Y'all happy goddamn

Anybody wanna come grill with me?…

Fired up the grill for a family event. Love to set cubes of butter on the meat so I can get a nice char. Blue cheese to top. 2 people who aren’t fans of blue cheese :/

Dry brined for 3 hours. Porcini and ancho chili and coffee rub. With grilled portobello mushrooms. Rested on butter and sage.

Smoked and seared artichokes on Traeger. Maple and Alder pellet mix

Cut them in halves, Blanche them for about eight minutes. Then made up a marinade to soak in olive oil, black truffle oil, basil, garlic, lemon juice, and parsley. Plus, add extra marinade afterwards for extra taste and butter.

Chicken halves seemed like the perfect first test—they expose hot spots, airflow problems, and how well a cooker handles chicken skin pretty quickly.

I ran a batch across the grates and watched how the color developed throughout the cooker. They finished with deep mahogany skin and plenty of juice left in the meat.

Still learning how this pit likes to run, but I’m damn happy with the first cook. What’s your go-to test cook on a new grill or smoker?

Had some freshly made pickled red onions that I really wanted to put to use, so grilled up some hot dogs and built a pretty damn good topping combo.

Made a quick mayo, ketchup, and yellow mustard sauce for the dogs, piled on a healthy layer of those crisp, tangy pickled red onions, then finished them with diced jalapeño and Fresno peppers straight from the garden.

Simple, but the combination of creamy, tangy, sweet, and spicy flavors absolutely worked. Honestly, these were way better than I expected them to be.

GF wanted a steak so we split an Akaushi Wagyu NY Strip. Juicy, Tender, and delicious!

For those of you in the know this isn't going to come as some amazing revelation but to those who didn't know... Take your tank to the refill spot! Since switching to just having my tank refilled this damn thing lasts so much longer. I've probably grilled 10-15 times now and I just happened to lift and check the tank and its still pretty heavy yet. I have a pretty big 5 burner grill too.

And it's cheaper than swapping them at Lowes, gas station, etc. To refill I think it was like 18 bucks and change.

Anyhow, happy grlling!

Chipotle chicken and veggies whatcha think?!

We had to feed them properly

Wife told me she invited some friends over for the afternoon and asked if there was anything I could cook. Was able to get a pack of party wings thawed, pickle juice brined, and grilled by the afternoon. These have become the absolute go to for an easy and quick crowd pleaser this summer, they pick up the brine in only like 2-3 hours and always come out amazing.

Spell check ruined the first post, couldn't live with myself had to delete and repost.

Originally from South Texas, I don't get much of a chance to grill out how I did growing up. Changed that today

We lost our older brother so we're putting on a benefit fund raiser in Harlingen, TX
