I love to grill with aluminum foil to eliminate extra clean up. Fish works well grilled in aluminum foil.
Nice
I have been grilling like every night. My husband has even been putting fruit in the grill. Grilled peaches are so yummy.
Great giveaway! My family and I would really love to cook our summer meals on this awesome grill! Thanks for the chance to win!
I remember cooking out with an older grill and a grease fire started. It was so bad it melted our siding. My husband wasn’t to happy.
I love grilling anything,esp fruit and veggies
I would love to win the grill!!
Don’t forget steaks!
exciting
I’m the one who brings the brisket! Hahaha–maybe it is because I’m from Texas and living in Missouri now, but it turns out—who knew?—that not everybody does brisket for a BBQ.
We’ve been using a $30 portable grill on a folding table to grill our chicken cutlets for Shabbos. A new grill would definitely enhance the summer cooking experience.
I would add music and some beverages to the list 🙂
I am not a big chicken/meat eater, but somehow when my HUSBAND does the grilling, chicken suddenly tastes so much better!
I do prepare everything for him though- my middle name is checklist. Marshmallows are missing from that list!
Thanks for the checklist. We always just grill as a spur of the moment thing!
I would so love to win this grill.
LOL, yeah, I have been without a grill for a while and just get invited to my brother’s but I am ready for my own.
Love the tips and this site. summer grilling….
I don’t get to grill much, but just thinking of a chicken burger on the grill. Yummm.
Oh, wow, never tried that.
Oy, that happened to be me when I was little, felt so strange.
I have to start working on a longer list, this is great.
Oh, great idea, Games!! What do you like to play?
At our BBQ we always need some games as well and I need this list because I am always forgetting something like foil!
We recently had a family BBQ for the 4th of July, great memories where created, we got to see family we haven’t seen in a while, had some backyard games, fireworks, awesome grilled food, and pool fun. I could use everything on this checklist to throw another family BBQ to create even more summer memories.
I just love the smell and flavor of grilled food, but I do not have a working grill. It would be great to win one.
I would add tablecloth clips to keep the tablecloth from blowing away.
This will be a perfect gift for dad!!
Great giveaway…good to share great healthy food with the family!
This is a wonderful giveaway, thanks a lot!
I singed my eyelashes once when my grill ignited in a puff. Only realized it the next time I put on mascara – lol.
We live in North Florida and any time we can grill and keep the heat out of the house, we do. And my husband could really use a new grill – fantastic giveaway.
always use lots of cooking spray to prevent sticking to the grill.
As a non-meat eater, I love grilled teriyaki salmon for Shabbat dinner–the last thing cooked right before candle lighting. Yum
memories of my childhood is my zaidy at the grill
This e mail didn’t arrive in my in box until 7/6 but we grilled Shabbos dinner. Beef kabobs with vegetables. So good. Last summer we grilled all the way from Los Angeles to Montana, Washington and then back. We live in So. Cal and can grill all year long.
Love to grill chicken & meat for Shabbos!
VERY NICE GRILL
I have been using the aluminum disposable charcoal grills – very convenient, no clean up!
All BBQ memories are linked with my late grandfather, A”H. He was the king of BBQ, standing for hours turning out burgers, hot dogs, and grilled onions for the family…even in the intense heat, and his old age- he took great pride in serving up a delicious dinner for us all.
my barbecue is so old, it is about falling apart, this would be nice.
I have been known to grill in the middle of winter. I’d love this for my son’s new home.
We are waiting to move into our first home we own and we can’t wait to geta grill and cook steak as rare as we want (we have a funny joke about a friend of the family who would invite us to BBQ but wouldn’t let us eat our steak medium
Bx it freaked him out and he would put it back on the grill) but we love him anyway
This is a good checklist for picnics and other outdoor activities too.
When it is hot in the summer, we grill almost every night-better than heating up the house with oven heat
Grilling in our house definitely goes beyond burgers and dogs. You definitely need to add chicken and steak kabobs to your list. Then you need to add onions, peppers, squash, eggplant, and fruit for dessert all to be grilled and added to the main dishes. Yum!
We love grilling before shabbos especially kishka!
Haven’t owned a bbq grill in 30+ years! It’s time to win one!
all I usually need for a BBQ is an invitation to my sister’s
I always make a list before I start grilling.This is no small task to set everything up and then start cooking. Then comes clean-up. Grilling is a lot of work but my family is worth it.
It would be much easier with a gas grill. I hope I win.
I love grilling and mine is out the door..I love to grill chicken and anything BBQ..Cant wait for the 4th of July to do a grill out
