This may seem to go against the whole theme of my blog, but I love good food and I love sharing meals with friends. Cookouts truly create one of the best times to simply enjoy peoples company.
Before I even moved into my house, I shopped around for a good quality grill. I wanted quality, I wanted something that would last, and I wanted something permanent. I found just the right grill!
My grill is cemented into the ground just under the overhang of my patio/carport. When it's raining, or when it's snowing, or when it's sunny... I can grill out. And yes, I do this often! I had purchased the grill before I even hired a moving company to help me move... I had my priorities straight!
The weather the past few days has me itching for a big cookout. Not just 3 or 4 friends over, but a BIG cookout for lots of people. I'm sure I'll be scheduling and inviting soon because the anticipation has now grown even larger. I recently ordered and received a few of my favorite grilling sauces. I am preparing for the upcoming grilling season!

Hukilau Hannah is a sweet blend of teriyaki, apricot, wasabi and ginger. I am typically not a big fan of teriyaki, so trust me when I say that this is not a strong teriyaki taste. It's very citrissee and sweet. My steak of choice is a thick cut rib-eye from Sam's Club. After allowing the steaks to marinade for at least 24 hours they are ready for the grill. This blend of marinade tastes Polynesian or Hawaiian to me, so I also like to throw some pineapple on the grill too. I've had some incredible steaks before, but this is truly one of the best steaks to me. I hope I'm not biased!
That particular grill shop closed so now I have to buy the marinade from online. For a while they even stopped selling it direct and only sold to wholesalers....so when I buy it, I typically buy several bottles at once. But oh my word, it is so worth it!


So I have planned ahead and bought the marinades, the weather is warming up, and now it's just time for the crowd to be invited. Grilling season is upon us!
