I grilled sweet potatoes, white potatoes, green peppers, mushrooms,
and a pablano pepper directly on the grates- no foil, pans, etc, as is
the usual method. I tossed them w/ olive oil, S&P, garlic and onion
powder. They then went directly on the grates, over high heat- I
turned them frequently, until moving them to indirect heat, at which
time I grilled the chuck eye steaks- something I've recently
discovered. They are only $4.09 per pound at the local grocery store.
Wow- if tonight is any indication, 2008 is looking good, grilling
wise, anyways! For some reason, my wife thought that the veggies would
be gross (Who said that females are the smarter sex?!- Hey- it's
really because they have what us men want; a good back rub, right?) If
you haven't tried the chuck eye steaks, I'd highly recommend them.
Make sure the label says chuck EYE steaks- not mock tender, not
spencer chuck, etc, but eye!

Enjoy- and here's to a great 2008 of grilling great!

We too love Chuck eyes, but they are harder and more expensive to find
these days.
Another cut we love is skirt steak. We marinate it in garlic powder,
onion powder, salt, pepper, some chili powder and Gravy Master(not
Kitchen Bouquet, too salty) for about 6 - 7 hours then grill like any
steak.just put it in a ziplok mix the ingredients then add the steaks
coating all sides.Grill like any good steak.
WE had this in a place in Cape May NJ and they called it Black Diamond
Steak. It took me a long time to discover what the 'black' was, that
left the inside still pink when cooked.
Enjoy, this is one of our all time favorites. Need to go to butcher
and get some, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!!
