No Recipes!


No recipes you say? YES, No Recipes!

If there are more than four ingredients for anything, I won’t do it. And if there are less than 3 or 4 ingredients, that can’t be much of a recipe.
In my mind, things that you already have and use all the time like salt & pepper, butter/oil, ketchup and mustard don’t count. Things like brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder etc. do count because you don’t use them all the time. This way I can keep it simple and easy so that I am more inclined not to shy away from grilling something I would be afraid of messing up. I love watching Steve Raichlen on TV but I have to scratch my head when I see him line up 17 pinch bowls of stuff for a mop sauce.

So, with no, or minimal recipes to think about, I can grill just about anything and everything and relax and enjoy the therapeutic Zen feeling one gets when embracing this culture.

2 Grill Chicken Night …at Dangerous Dave's.

There’s a special feeling you get when you have two charcoal grills going at the same time. Two chimney starters smoking left and right on the balcony. Two Weber kettles ready to go.
I got a 4 1/2 lb. Perdue Oven Stuffer to roast on the rescued Weber 18.5” for sandwiches and stuff during the week and barbecued boneless chicken breasts with Apple chicken sausages and foil wrapped corn and cauliflower ala Dangerous Dave's for dinner tonight.

I already have 3 out of these 5 items so the garlic and onion powder count as only two ingredients and this works perfectly for a “No Recipe” recipe.
One side basket in the Weber 18.5” kettle is perfect for 325 – 350 degrees.
We’re Smokin’ now! The rescued grill is becoming my favorite for all of my indirect cooking.


At the same time I was rockin' the Performer with some boneless chicken breasts and Apple chicken sausages, foil wrapped corn on the cob and cauliflower ala Dangerous Dave's for tonight's dinner.
