Grilled Corn Salad with Chili-Miso Dressing
I love making spinach salads because you can put the dressing on in advance and it won't wilt as quickly as lettuce. This Grilled Corn Salad with Chili-Miso Dressing takes your salad "out of the ordinary" category. The combination of chili and miso delivers spicy umami flavor. Truth be told, I cheated and bought already grilled frozen corn from Trader Joe's. I try to always have it in the freezer. It has a great smoky flavor.

Lemony Honey Mustard Marinade for Grilled Chicken
This Lemony Honey Mustard Marinade for Grilled Chicken is my new favorite marinade. I will be making this all summer. It's super simple and makes the chicken moist and tender and packed with flavor. The chicken can be cooked on the grill or on a stove-top grill pan if the weather doesn’t cooperate.

Steak with Blue Cheese Compound Butter
This wonderful Blue Cheese Compound Butter takes a grilled steak to a whole other level. Compound butter is a mixture of butter and other ingredients to enhance flavor in various dishes. It can be made by whipping additional elements, such as herbs, spices or aromatic liquids, into butter. The butter is then reformed, usually in plastic wrap or parchment paper, and chilled until it is firm enough to be sliced. These butters can be melted on top of meats and vegetables, used as a spread or used to finish various sauces.

St. Augustine Marinade for Tri Tip
I went to my favorite butcher to buy some meat and they had a bunch of tri tips already marinaded in bags. There were 5 different options so I asked for the most popular, which is called St. Augustine Marinade for Tri Tip. It was delicious. The marinade is white wine, orange marmalade, and Worcestershire sauce. Here is my version.

Grilled Scallops with Yuzu Koshu Vinaigrette
These Grilled Scallops with Yuzu Koshu Vinaigrette are very quick and easy to make on the grill or in a cast iron skillet. Yuzu kosho (available in Asian markets or on Amazon) is a Japanese condiment made from fresh green or red chiles then fermented with salt along with zest and juice from yuzu, a tart and fragrant citrus fruit that grows in East Asia. My husband is addicted to yuzu! The combination of chiles, citrus, and salt has a distinctive flavor that enlivens a dish.

Potatoes à la Ketchup
This recipe for Potatoes à la Ketchup seems sort of bizarre. You basically put the potatoes in foil packets for the grill and add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. It's actually quite good and a bit unusual which always appeals to me. You should try it the next time you fire up your grill.

Grilled Salmon with Maple Butter Glaze
This Grilled Salmon with Maple Butter Glaze is the best salmon we've ever done on a grill. I bought my husband a Big Green Egg for his birthday (or was it for mine?). All I can say is WOW! Everything we've made on it has been amazing. The marinade is amazing and this recipe would work on a regular grill or in the oven.

Bambi’s Bali Hai Bananas
My friend Chris told me about Bambi's Bali Hai Bananas. It's a recipe she adapted for the grill. You can also do it in the oven. You can serve them with ice cream and whipped cream. This recipe is a snap to prepare, making even the most amateur, inexperienced cook look like a rock star.

Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Mustard-Dill Sauce
Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Mustard-Dill Sauce is great for a summer outdoor cookout. Pork tenderloin is relatively inexpensive and is very low in fat, so this makes a delicious healthful meal. Pork tenderloin and pork loin are very different cuts of meat. Pork tenderloins are longer and skinnier than pork loin and cook way faster.
