Over the past few years I have really enjoyed grilling. Hamburger's and Hotdog's are a great summer meal but sometimes it's nice to have something a little different.

My wife and I had some time off work and with our son it's really hard to go out to eat and be able to enjoy our dinner. I decided to make a nice dinner on the grill which also is a quick and easy clean up.


When I want to make something different I always google search what I want and find different ways of grilling food. Here is my version of Surf and Turf the entire meal was cooked over the grill.

Crushing Garlic brings out more flavor.

I start first by getting the potatoes ready for the grill. After I microwave them for a few minutes. I roll the potatoes in Olive Oil and sprinkle with Garlic Salt. This add's flavor really to the skin of the tator and makes it crisp. Wrap in foil and give each one a quick poke with a knife. After the grill has been on for a few minutes I get the potatoes on.

My steaks and shrimp have been marinating for a few hours. The shimp I bought was deveined but still had the shell left on which is better on the grill. I use lime juice, crushed garlic, Old Bay, cut basil, and salt / pepper. Oh, and a shot of olive oi,. really kick it up..I usually use a freezer bag for the marinade.

The Steak's I prepared the same way but left out the Old Bay Seasoning and through in some garlic cloves. I just basically put a dash of lime juice, crushed garlic and other stuff in a zip lock bag shake and put it in the fridge.

I put the mushrooms in foil after washing and added a touch of Olive Oil. The mushrooms will need 12 - 15 min grill time.

The Corn I peeled and cleaned the silk then pulled the husk back up and soaked in water.



I put the corn and steaks on. I first spray the grill with Pam. You want to cook each side of the steak for 5 to 6 minutes.

Wow, nice day..
beer youngwood pa BL lime is a great tasting light summer beer.

I move the potatoes to the top rack and make room for the mushrooms and Shrimp. Shrimp only take a few minutes per side. Once they turn pink you know they are done.
The corn needs rotated to keep the husk from burning which is why you want to soak them in water.

The shrimp was the last thing on and the first off. The corn takes about 12 to 15 minutes. So I moved them to the top with the potatoes. Ok, the steaks look great and the potatoe's have been on the grill now for over 50 min. Time to pull shut the gas off and sit down to eat.

I like my steaks medium to medium well these New York Strip Steaks turned out great, . The corn was not that great but it's not quite in season yet everything elese was good.

Dinner is served . Delicious
