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.

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.

Chicken Kabobs with Mushrooms and Peppers

My brother David is in town and he was kind enough to make dinner. Chicken Kabobs with Mushrooms and Peppers was what he came up with. He usually buys them already assembled, but they did not have any so he made it from scratch. It's a super healthy and easy meal to throw on the grill.

Marinated Tri-Tip

Marinated Tri-Tip is the ultimate summer meal on the grill. This marinade is tangy, spicy and full of flavor. By bringing the leftover marinade to a rolling boil you can use it as a finishing or basting sauce for the meat.
