Monday outdoor grilling, Denver Style!
Grilling any day of the week is perfectly acceptable. A lot of people tend to think that firing up the grill out on their back deck requires a “reason” or should be reserved for a special occasion or party. Nothing can be further from the truth.
Your mindset should be, the grill is just another cooking appliance, but outdoors. Here in the Denver and front-range area, we enjoy many, many days of sun. There are endless opportunities to take advantage of both the sun, a warm deck and wonderfully prepared meal on a grill.
Picture this; after putting in a full day at the office, you’re on your way home. Decisions, decisions, what to do for dinner. Stop at your favorite fast-food place, stop at the grocery store for frozen pizza or just getting home and figure using what’s ever in the fridge?
How about a 15 minute meal. Burgers, cooked on the grill, there’s nothing better and faster. You can of course get these on the run at your favorite drive-thru, but they’re not as good and good for you, my son quoted a statistic from his 8th grade health class, 1 meal at (your-favorite-fast-food-burger-chain-here) equals eating a full stick of butter. So, which would you rather have, control over your own lean burger meat or something processed and unhealthy. It only takes less than 10 minutes or so on the grill to get a perfectly medium cooked burger patty and you have a decent quick meal. Even if you don’t have patties and buns at home, stop by the local grocer and pickup pre-made, bag of patties and some buns.
Besides, while you’re working the meat over, you could be holding a cold one, winding down from a day of crazy conference calls and endless meetings. This also leads to enjoying the scenery and setting sun. If you’re fortunate enough to live in Colorado, you could call this everyday, outdoor grilling, Denver Style.
Go grill something.
