I usually post some nasty recipe I've
found online, but Nick and Kelsey got me a BBQ grill for Father's Day, so I thought I'd put it to good use.
I marinated some flat iron steaks and
made a different marinade for some shrimp.
The steak marinade:
¼ cup EVOO
2 T basalmic vinegar
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp Italian seasoning
salt and pepper
I scored the steaks with a knife to let
the marinade soak in, then I put them in a sealed bag for a couple of
hours.
Then I made a marinade for the shrimp:
3 cloves garlic
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Okay, I cheated some with this. The
garlic came from a jar, and I used red wine instead of red wine
vinegar. Fresh basil was not to be found., but I bought some chopped
basil leaves in a jar.
I also made a dipping sauce for some
French bread. Yum!
1/4 cup EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon crushed dried oregano
fresh ground black pepper
It was just a little too garlicky for
me, but still tasty.
What goes with BBQ better than baked
beans? I could have made baked beans, but I was feeling lazy, so I
used a can of KC Masterpiece baked beans.
Let's go grilling!
Steaks.
Shrimp on the barbie.
Nick and I had quite a feast.
I made peach cobbler for dessert. Goes
great with ice cream.
Over all, the shrimp could have been a
little spicier, but I'm not complaining.
Until next time, bon appetit!
