The Weber Grill Restaurant is really unique. I didn't catch the location. The kitchen is all Weber charcoal grills. All their food is grilled. I couldn't believe the fire coming up out of those grills. They grill all the desserts too--grilled pineapple and bananas.

And, yes, there was some Romaine lettuce on the grill.

The Flank versus the Skirt!

------------------

I saw the Weber program...being a typical male I was in awe of the grills. That is something I'd like to have, just to wow the neighbors.


Citrus Marinade?

This in not an exact science-lol, my recipe!
Go slow and add or subtract as you go along and TASTE, TASTE, TASTE!


Orange juice, Lime or lemon juice, About .5 cups of each.

You can use OJ and the lemon, lime or all three. You do get a different flavor
according to what you use and how sweet/sour the citrus is!

1/4 cup vinegar.
1 tablespoon of chili powder
1 tablespoon of garlic powder
1 tablespoon of meat tenderizer, like Sazon.
salt to taste.

Slice a small yellow onion or take about 4-5 whole green onions and a pinch of fresh cilantro. You can also toss in a few orange slices to the mix.

Toss it all in a bowl, toss in the meat, onion and cilantro. Let is sit for a few hours, over night is better? I plastic bag is fine, so is a covered dish.

Get a good fire going and toss it on the grill!

Don't leave the onion in huge chunks, do a julienne cut on it-most of it will fall thru the grill, but it already has flavored the meat, Green onions? Grill them away from the hottest part of the grill. You can eat them whole or chop them up to add to your meat.

The meat cooks up pretty quickly so have all your stuff ready to go.
The basic fixings are chopped onion, fresh cilantro, chopped tomato, lime or lemon slices to squeeze on it - or you can toss together a fast salsa with all the above and a jalapeno. Again, this isn't an exact recipe, so go 'thirds' of the veggies, add some lime juice and a jalapeno-to taste!

If you heat your tortillas on a grill be careful about turning them-and don't heat up too many at a time, either kind get hard if you do not eat them quickly. YOu can take a hand towel, folded in half, and put them there as you go along.
