I Heart Beef Grilling Giveaway

I love to experiment on the grill with chicken and slowly braised short ribs, dream about whole hogs cooked all day over a pit of hot coals, but that won't sway my answer. A big juicy steak is still unquestionably my favorite thing to throw on a grill.

Nothing beats how the salty crunchiness of the lightly charred crust yields to that dark pink tender center.  Nothing quite satisfies me like a prime aged rib eye steak. Whether it's served with some vibrant green chimichurri sauce or a buttery bearnaise, it never fails to make me groan aloud with simple joy.

I got a lovely treat in the mail today from the Beef Council to celebrate my love of beef: an I Heart Beef Grilling Care Package. And I also have one for one of my readers! Have you ever checked out their website? It's filled with great resources like the interactive meat case and great grilling tips and recipes from Chef Dave like how to build the perfect burger. But I'm getting carried away, and forgetting to tell you what the care package contained:
  • an adorable I Heart Beef Apron which I wouldn't dream of passing over to the man in my life,
  • a meat thermometer,
  • a copy of the Healthy Beef Cooking Cookbook,
  • an I Heart Beef Bumper Sticker so you can proclaim your love to the world,
  • and a beautiful and handy wooden cookbook holder.

To enter to win, please leave me a comment about what you love to throw on the grill before Friday, July 30. I'll select the winner at random that night.

    I love to throw fresh veggies on the grill. Zucchini and green peppers are my favorites. And yes, they usually are served on the side of a good steak. The fiance wouldn't be happy without it!

    Just yesterday, I grilled chicken and steaks on the grill. I always make extra to throw in the freezer, then when it gets to be 95 degrees again, I don't have to cook. I think my favorite thing on the grill is bananas foster over vanilla ice cream for dessert.

    Mmm. We have a secret family marinade that we use on chicken. And after we let it marinate for about 24 hours and grill with some potato & onion pouches...and a separate pouch of asparagus...Yum!

    One of our favorite meals.
