Beer can chicken or ...a tipsy chicken

Kind of surprised this was our first time making the 'wildly popular' beer can chicken.

Not sure it tasted much different than any other grilled chicken done right...but it was delicious!

After all...the whole point of making this 'tipsy chicken' is having fun with a few cold beers, your grill, the company of family and friends...all in the great outdoors!

Perfect Father's Day grilling activity ...you'll find the post here at SheKnows: Beer can chicken   Cheers!

Grilled skirt steak with avocado corn salad

Not my recipe here, but I was asked to make the dish and photograph for SheKnows.

I make a similar version of this grilled skirt steak with avocado corn salad and let's just say you can not go wrong when any of these ingredients come together!

Delicious and fresh...serve with warmed tortillas, cold beer with lime or a big ol' pitcher of classic margaritas! You'll find the recipe here at Sheknows: Grilled skirt steak with avocado corn salad

*Skirt steak has become expensive over the years...not horribly... but just enough to be annoying. Flank steak is a suitable substitute though has a tendency to be a bit tough. An excellent substitute is a nice flat iron steak...usually much less expensive and equally delicious! (Always slice against the grain when serving!!!)

Grilled chicken tikka masala kabobs

These Chicken tikka masala kabobs are delicious with the grilled onions and fresh lemon!

We served them with homemade garlic, cilantro naan and a curried citrus lentil salad (...both delicious and both to come)!

You could substitute the dried red chilies in the recipe with any spicy peppers you have on hand.



Perfect with a big bowl of hot basmati rice...you find my recipe here at SheKnows: Chicken tikka masala kabob recipe
