If space is an issue there's always this:



Could probably fit a mushroom or a scallop in there!

Very nice! That's one of the many reasons I love summer, BBQs! When the weather is beautiful and you got someone skilled on the grill...perfection!

i am not a big fan of very hot weather, especially with our humidity :roll: ...but there still is soooo much to love about summer, and grilling is definitely one of them!


granted, we grill year round, but it's just so much better in the summer time!

when i moved into my first apartment when i was 19, i bought one of those and would grill outside on the walkway (i was on the 2nd floor)...well, my manager put a stop to that so being the genius guy that i am, i said 'fine, i'll do it in the kitchen' :? ...in my mind i thought putting a charcoal grill on top of the stove and turning the vent on to let the smoke escape was the perfect solution...ya know in a small space, those little grills can make an awful lot of smoke and fire...still surprised i didn't burn the building down

:oops: :P :wave:

hahaha yeah well I'd like to continue having a place to live after grilling a piece of fish one night. I love apartment living but it is one downfall. I don't even live in a building, I live in a multi-family house, but there's no place to grill. When they first moved in my upstairs neighbors were going to try to grill on our little strip of grass, but it never gets mowed and the hedge doesn't get trimmed, so they quickly realized that by June you need a machette to get back there.

Get some small planks of cedar and grill the fish on them.

Cool, thanks for the tip..that sounds way better than the tacky tinfoil method. Weird how it only happens with Halibut, tho.. Mahi Mahi (or dorado if your in baja), Salmon, Yellow Tail..etc..no problem with pieces falling off, just Halibut...

My father is a rancher and I split a steer with him once a year (100% certified grassfed angus). I just stocked my freezer with my yearly supply of burgers, T-bones and ribeyes and converted my grill to hook up to the natural gas line comming from my house Grilling has always been my primary way of cooking, whether it be vegies or meat! I have a hard time talking myself into going to steak houses these days... Gonna grill me up a steak and sweet potato fries approx 1 hour. This thread made me hungry.

My gosh, someone is actually griping about grilling!

Today I made stuffed jalapenos, wrapped them in bacon and put them on the grill. First time I've ever made them, and they were fantastic.
They went great with the grilled tomatoes, asparagus, onions and corn on the cob.
