michael hurd Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Just finished cooking a big round steak on the bbq. Temperature is a chilly -35 fahrenheit with the wind chill factored in. Brr.. Just how determined have you been barbequing ? Rain, sleet hail, etc ? Come on, there must be a few stories about tornados as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Favog Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 It was getting dark kinda early just after we set our clocks back in October a few years ago. I had another real tasty Flank Steak on the ol' grill (with Worcestershire Sauce and McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning) when the GF came out onto the back porch to see how things were coming along. Now our porch used to be screened in but the screen was in real bad shape when she took occupancy in 85' do she just ripped it all out. A thick and heavy wall-cloud thunder storm brewed up. Wind blowin' pretty heavy but since we're cooking with propane we just closed the lid. Now we just love to watch storms in the livingroom through a large picture window facing West and it was just that more exciting to be outside to feel the fury. A few minutes later all the power goes out on our street and the GF has a big grin on her face. I look at her like "What's with you?" The next thing I knew she was all over me hair on a gorrila. Needless to say we wound up seducing each other on the porch, in a rain storm, smelling a georgeous steak, and over a picnic table! Guess you could say I had my steak and Edith too! ........o.k. so her name is Sheila, but down-under it means "woman". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael hurd Posted January 14, 2003 Author Share Posted January 14, 2003 Tom : lol have your steak and eat it too... Btw, montreal steak spice is my favorite dressing, even topping fresh ground black peppercorns and fresh lemon rubbed into the meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j-malotky Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Dale Its not just you Canadians. Most everybody I know in Wisconsin fires up the grill regularly year round. We had a high temp the other weekend of 2 degrees F and I was grilling NY Strips. JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkrop Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 What is a good rule of thumb for an increase in cooking time relative to drop in temperature? I like mine rare but the Mrs. likes hers well done but not leathery. Cooking mine isn't a problem but I can't seem to time well done right.
