BBQ/Grilling in the winter does rule. 78 degrees all the way.

Re: MS BBQ Thread

I certainly don't stop bbqing when it gets cold, but I do miss the things that accompany the actual cooking process. Damn thee, Missouri weather!

Re: MS BBQ Thread

I love sweet meat or the combination of meat and sweet sauces or fruit, so good.

Try this -- when you're doing pork chops, take a slice of apple coated with butter and cinnamon, and toss it on top of each chop while it's on the grill, and cook as you normally would.

If I want cinnamon on my pork, I'll douse my daughter with some.
How bad does the weather get in St. Louis? That's one city I've yet to check out. Seen your airport several times though.

There's a marinade called Mojo that kicks ass. Its citrus based with a bunch of other ingredients of course.I think it's a cuban thing because it's pretty huge in Florida. My pops cooked a pork roast which he cut open and stuffed with garlic and other shite and marinated it in Mojo Then smoked it, and it was awesome.

We CAN get some pretty severe extremes, and can count on a week or so each winter that is fucking freezing (read: below 0 F) and a week or so during the summer that is take-your-breath-away hot (105-plus and humid as hell). Most of the time, though, summer days are in the 90s and winter days are in the teens and 20s, with summer tending to bring the more extreme weather.

Also, we're treated to some really spectacular storms. If you like that sort of thing, spring in MO can be a lot of fun.

Sounds great, almost like a winter steak or something because of apple and cinnamon

Re: MS BBQ Thread

Man, I could go on and on talking about BBQ. Here's another tip for a really simple but great rub -- mix equal parts of the following:

Ground white pepper
Brown sugar
Kosher salt
Sweet paprika

This is great rubbed on most everything by itself, but I also use it as a base for other more specialized rubs. Might take some of this stuff but add some mustard powder and cayenne, or garlic powder and cumin -- really limited only by your imagination. Rub it on there, wrap it tight, pop it in the fridge for 4-24 hours to give it time to set, and it'll be ready to wow you when you finally do introduce it to the flame...

Re: MS BBQ Thread

Anyone on MS nowadays have any good seasoning recipes for fish on the grill? cheers

[nick007]

Re: MS BBQ Thread

I do fish on the weber:

Lemon/ black pepper/ Indian masala made into a paste and smeared over the fish.

Wrap it in tin foil

Onto weber with lid on for 30/40 minutes turn once

Unwrap and leave lid off and grill for 5 minutes


Wala!

Re: MS BBQ Thread

Cook seasoned tiger prawns in a vacumn pack on the weber in the bag with lid on for 30 minutes - fantastic

Re: MS BBQ Thread

I do prawns in shallow clay ramekins with about half a garlic clove, spring onion, mushroom and pepper and fill about half full with a sweet chilli sauce, let it marinade for a few hours then just heat it up on the bbq.

As for fish, stuff it with onion and chillis and pepper and squeeze lemon juice along it then just chuck it directly on the bbq and sprinkle with a bbq seasoning each side as it cooks.
