It's nice when the days have started getting longer and warmer, when so much of our time is enjoyed doing all things via the great outdoors, and the grilling time is more frequent too. We continue to enjoy cooking on our new Big Green Egg-(BGE). We've used it as a smoker a few times now with great success, but we also use it almost daily for grilling. I've taken a few photos of the delicious grilled eats we have been preparing and enjoying, so I thought I'd share some of those today. Plus with May being National Barbecue Month, it's a perfect opportunity to spotlight, in celebration of a favorite for most of us...The Barbecue Grill!
Enjoy and try not to drool now!
One of our most frequent and favorites for grilling most often is boneless chicken breasts and vegetable skewers-kabobs!
I basted these with a little olive oil before grilling and added a few different seasonings! Getting our daily veggies is easy, and it's great doing it this way!
I used a blend of herbs and spices for the chicken breasts. I also prepared some tasty jasmine rice to go along with these juicy chicken breasts and veggies too.

Another meal favorite is thick cut pork chops, a do over of the vegetable skewers (because we like them that much), and corn-on-the-cob!
[I soak the corn in water, for at least a half hour before grilling! When only doing two, I find a large pitcher works well for this. Drain, then keep them off to the side away from direct heat on the grill, and turned often. I find the corn is better the longer it's on the grill, or on for the duration I am cooking everything else.]

I know I've mentioned it before, but I'll take one of my grilled thick cut pork chops over a steak any day!
It is one of my specialties, and a big favorite of mine!

I can't say enough good things about our Big Green Egg-(BGE)! We truly love it, and it is a wonderful new addition to our lives. Also for the most part, I feel we are eating more healthy with what we have been preparing on it as well. Mostly grilled meats and veggies, and even some delicious grilled fruits!
I've learned recently that the community of BGE owners are called Egg-heads, I'm OK with that!

Happy to be an Egg-head now!...
