Ingredients

• 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

• Lawry’s Hawaiian Marinade or any marinade you choose.  Could use a teriyaki marinade.

• 1 Pineapple

• 1 Cup Brown Sugar

Items used to make this recipe

• Knife

• Cutting Board

• Measuring Cups

• Meat Tenderizer Mallet

• Ziploc Bag

Recipe

1. OK first off we want to get our chicken ready to marinate.  So trim all the fat off the chicken breasts and then tenderize them with your Meat Tenderizer Mallet.

2. After your chicken breast are trimmed up and tenderized throw them into a ziploc bag and pour enough marinade in the bag to cover them.  Then place the bag in your refrigerator to marinate for 30 minutes.

3. While your chicken is marinating we will prepare the pineapple slices.  First you will want to lay the pineapple on it’s side and cut off the top and the bottom of the pineapple.

4. Then stand the pineapple up and cut down the sides taking off the rind of the pineapple.

5. Once you have all the rind of the pineapple cut off place the pineapple on it’s side and cut crosswise to make 1/2 inch thick slices.

6. Now you want to cut our the fibrous core from the center of each slice.  If you have a fruit corer then you can use that.  I however do not have one so I just used a knife to cut out the center of the pineapple slices.

 7.  OK now it is time to do some grilling.  You can put everything on the grill at the same time so go ahead and put your chicken on the grill.

8.  Now before you put your pineapple slices on the grill dip them in some brown sugar and then put them on the grill.  The pineapple slice will need about 6 minutes per side.  Once they have some nice grill marks on them they are ready to go.

9.  Once the chicken has reached 170 degrees it is done and ready to pull off the grill.  Now just plate everything up.

OK here we are all plated up!  I also grilled some asparagus for this dish.  This came out pretty good the pineapples were super juicy and complemented the chicken very well.

Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 4 pounds pork baby back ribs or 2 racks

• 1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce

Kansas City Style Rib Rub

• 1/2 cup brown sugar

• 1/4 cup paprika

• 1 tablespoon black pepper

• 1 tablespoon salt

• 1 tablespoon chili powder

• 1 tablespoon garlic powder

• 1 tablespoon onion powder

• 1 teaspoon cayenne

Items used to make this recipe

• Serving Platter

• Gas Grill

• Tongs

• Knife

• Paper towels

Recipe

1. Remove the ribs from the packaging.  Wash each rack of ribs off and then you will need to peel off the membrane from the bone side or the back of the ribs.  This can be done by using a knife to get under the membrane and then take a paper towel to get a good grip on the membrane and then peel it off.

2. Cut your racks of ribs in half.  Leave about 6 to 8 ribs for each one.

3. Next, combine all of the ingredients for your rub and mix them together well.  You will probably have extra so use an air tight bottle to save the rub mix for the next time you make ribs.

4. Now, take the rub mix and sprinkle it over the ribs and rub it in with your fingers.  That’s it your ribs are prepared.  Not to bad so far.  Now let your ribs sit out and get to room temperature which should take about 20 to 30 minutes.

5. While your ribs are sitting, preheat the grill and set it up for indirect grilling.  You want your grill to be at medium low heat or 250 degrees.  With a gas grill this is very simple.  Just turn on one side of the grill.  For a charcoal grill move all of your charcoal to one side of the grill so you have the other side not over direct heat.

6. Now you are ready to put your ribs on the grill.  Just put them onto the side of the grill that is not turned on.  Like shown in the picture.  Be sure to rotate your ribs every so often.

7. The ribs will take about 2 to 3 hours to get done.  You will know they are done when the meat pulls back from the bone about a half inch or so.  This is demonstrated in the picture to the right.  You can see that the rack in the middle has started to pull back quite a bit so those are definitely ready to go.

8. During the last 15 minutes of cooking is when you’re able to baste the ribs with your barbecue sauce of choice.

9. After the 15 minutes, pull them off the grill and let them sit for 5 to 10 minutes to cool down.

Now your fingers better be ready to get sticky! Enjoy your homemade ribs.

These ribs were awesome this time.  I can’t wait to make them again in my new smoker!

Ingredients

• 1 pound of Ground Chicken

• 2 Garlic Cloves

• 2 Tablespoons of your favorite A1 sauce

• 1/2 Teaspoon of Montreal Steak Seasoning

• 1/4 Cup of chopped spanish onions

Items used to make this recipe

• Large Mixing Bowl

• Garlic Press

• Chef Knife

• Spatula

Recipe

Now it is time to fire up the grill.  Heat up your grill to medium and once it has reached temperature spray your grill with olive oil so your burgers will not stick.  Now place your chicken burgers on the grill.  They should need about 5 minutes per side.

For this recipe, I am using a gas grill, but you could also bake these burgers in your oven if you would prefer.  I would recommend cooking them at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes.

I put white american cheese on my burgers because I love cheese.  Feel free to place your favorite cheese on these burgers if you prefer to have a cheese burger like me.

To the right is the finished product.  Place it on a bun with all of your favorite toppings.  I put mine on sliced bread with mayo and ketchup!  It was quite good.

I hope you enjoyed this recipe.  If any one decides to make these delicious burgers, please let me know how it goes.
