Can you believe it's already May? Boy does time just fly by. It feels like Spring Break was just yesterday, and yet we're already heading into summer. The weather has been beautiful lately, and we've been trying to take advantage of it before it becomes typical Houston-hot-and-humid-as-Hades summer weather. That means, breaking out the grill and cleaning off the patio furniture. This weekend we grilled hamburgers and last night we made steaks, sausage, veggies, and potatoes.
For the potatoes, we used red potatoes, cut up some onions, and added rosemary from the garden. We topped it with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper and put the foil packs on the grill. Yum!
For the veggies, we made squash, bell pepper, and mushroom kabobs.
For the meat, we bought some bacon wrapped beef and pork fillets from H-E-B and grilled a link of jalapeno sausage. If you ever happen to come across those bacon wrapped fillets at H-E-B, I definitely recommend them. They're so easy to make and quite good. We've even just cooked them in the oven, and they turned out fine.
By the way, can you believe our $25 grill is still kicking nearly two years later? I thought it was a goner when we switched from charcoal briquettes to lump charcoal since lump charcoal burns so much hotter, but so far it's survived.
Mmm... looking forward to more evenings on the patio before it gets too hot.
