Marinated the steaks in a little VSQ brandy, splash of White Zifandel, garlic powder, basil leaves, and some spicy season salt. It was pretty kick-ass!.
The dogs are cheddar filled and the lil smokies were added because I got tired of seeing them in the freezer. They turned out well on the veggie grilling tray.

Didn't see this thread, should have just posted this here instead of making a thread.
Just got this pit
Made some great flank steak and burgers the last couple of nights on the firebox.
Also, a little help on cuts of meat that tend to be a little on the tough side - these tenderizers by jaccard work well

So sorry for no pics, but grilled up "Redfish on the halfshell" while camping on the beach over the weekend. Brought my little grill, and YES a bag of Charcoal (ahhhhh) and it was of course freaking fantastic. Fish so fresh it was damn near still kicking when it hit the grill.
Redfish on the Halfshell is just a fillet with skin left on, hit the grill skin side down and rub with EVOO then dust with a good powder (I like Fiesta Chicken Rub on freaking everything) and grill until it flakes, eat with a fork off the skin.

I had same issue... You may need a new regulator hose.
You can also try this:
Disconnect hose from tank and turn on all the burners. Let it sit for a few minutes and then turn off burners. Reconnect the hose to the tank and slowly turn on the tank all the way. Open up the burners and ignite them.
I found turning on tank all the way before opening up burners helped solve my problem.BRB, going hunting...

I think it is a hose issue. I cleaned the grill through and through. When I finished, it fired right up. The next day at lunch time, it had low flames again. Disconnected the hose and reconnected it at a different angle and it fired up again. We'll see how it behaves tomorrow. I'll probably end up with a new grill by the end of the year.
Has anybody done grilled watermelon? I saw it in a magazine (reader's digest?) and it piqued my interest. I'm going to try it tomorrow. I was curious if anybody had experience with it.

idk, the goof off or whatever got it started. all the lighter fluid did was make huge flames and didnt light a single coal after i sprayed it on for a good 30 seconds. im used to using a gas grill so i didnt have a torch or anything on hand, my bro said next time i can just use newspaper under the charcoals...thoughts? probably gonna save myself the frustration and get lighter fluid either way but was intradesting thought. the burger tasted fine however

If I don't have a torch handy and I'm using charcoal as opposed to real wood I'll rip down the paper bag of the charcoal and use that to get it going. If you have a charcoal chimney it's super easy, fill with CC and then put some paper underneath it, light and come back in 20 minutes. If you're just piling it up you need to be sure to create some air space for the paper to burn properly and maybe crumble it up a bit or stack it before stacking the CC over it. Same thing with real wood, chip some bark off of your grilling wood and then you can use a small piece of paper underneath the bark chips with the wood teepee'd over that to burn upwards.
He just used Goof Off to start his last fire, I don't think he's worried about ink on the paper. LOL

Grilled Watermelon: It's....different. Granted, the watermelon that ended up on the grill wasn't the best quality so that may have affected it a little but nobody was a big fan of it. I ate a bunch of slices myself but I much prefer eating it regularly. It's definitely not like grilled corn on the cob or baked potatoes that are so awesome I can never eat regular corn on the cob/baked potatoes again. It's something that I might try again when I have a better quality watermelon, but it would only be one slice to see if there's any difference.
Grilled mango is something I want to try, though. Seems to me that mango would come out better than watermelon just based on the texture.

Gotta eat hearty...taking my son to his first WWE event tonight. Have no idea what to expect but want to be well fed at least.
Haven't tried this rub before but if it's anything like their other rubs it will be great.
Sweet potatoes 'n chops cooking now. Gonna throw on some steaks, too. Bought a whole ribeye last week & had it sliced. Great deal. Marinade seems to be taking well.
Chops turned out great. Nice flavor & heat on that rub, too.
