Split, Those look AWESOME! I love shrimp and fish tacos. I made a rub that I use to grill the shrimp and fish with.

I usually use Orange Roughy, but Tilapia or really any fish is good.

Proud of you for using a corn tortilla.

Nice looking salsa/pico as well.. You put your foot in this one :clap:

Serve with lemon butter!:grinpimp:

I prefer a combination of lemon juice, butter, ranch or mayo, red wine vinegar and salt and pepper.

When steaming, I prefer stem side down, they don't get as mushy. I also sprinkle red wine vinegar, lemon juice and salt on the petals so it seeps in while it steams.
 
on the less meaty side, I have been exploring veggies recently. A find, which to my surprise even my teenager professes to love -can you believe that?- is grilled brussels sprouts.

I cut them in two lengthwise so they are mostly flat. Spray them with EVOO. I use a (Costco) Santa Maria bbq spices mix sprinkled lightly on, but it'd probably work with just about anything. More citrusy spices mix might be good too.
I put a perforated veggie grill pan on the grill and leave it there for a while empty. Not too hot (as in 600F+) as they will quickly char, 500 might be better (still experimenting...). Bit of canola spray before adding the sprouts. Keep flipping over until the right amount of charring for you. (About 5 mins or so for me.) Don't overcook, keep them crunchy. Very good indeed. Nothing like the soggy miserable affairs you may remember being subjected to.

I get my sprouts from Costco in a bag, easy enough but they are much prettier on the stem.

Eric, try grilling garlic, it's the bomb.:cool:
 
What is your recipe for the pico? It looks hot if there is Serrano peppers in it. Also, what kind of flavor does the gurerro pepper add?

I make it hot because it settles down in the fridge...

Key ingredients, qty changes with every batch;

Hand chopped, in order;

4 to 6 bundles of green onions
1 whole onion
4 to 12 serrano chilis
1 to 2 yellow (chilis huerros) (these just add heat and a different flavor)
12 to 15 Roma tomatoes
1 clump of fresh cilantro diced
Garlic powder to taste
And depending on the juice content, 2 to ? of fresh squeezed lime.

Serranos are the best way to regulate the heat, My favoite chili for flavor and lack of the manana burn.:doh:
 
You should try my trick, John. Add black beans, corn, avocado and chili powder (optional). Looks like s***, but tastes awesome. It works as both a salsa and a salad.:cool:

The eye of the beholder, sounds good to me.:cheers: And avocado, mmmm.

Sounds close to the Mexican Shepards pie I concocted, that why I make a huge batch, the pico theme goes well with almost everything.:D

I am soooooo gonna give this a go! Thanks, JD!
 
Mmmmm. Those looks great John. I think we need to get some good cooking like this next time we go wheeling.
 
Do leftovers count?

Monday night's tri-tip turned bueno, yum.

Smoking and wrenching on the CRUISER

Well I had a long day of sanding etc.. on the 60 so I decided to smoke a pork shoulder at the same time.

Worked out out well and I'll let ya know how it tastes..

I got it in the final hour wrapped tightly with tinfoil now and then the last hour out of the foil.

I'm thinking I want to do some kabobs on the grill soon. What's everyone use for marinades?
