Here’s the recipe that I’ve been using forever. I make about 4-6x the amount of injection liquid and marinade in a big plastic container instead of injecting...

Everyone seems to love it. We have given frozen pork bags to family members for Christmas (at their request)

Today we turned on the SWG and started making chlorine. We worked around the yard and finally I fired up the Egg. Easter dinner at my house: bacon wrapped filets, grilled corn and asparagus and cooking indoors is roasted potato wedges and garlic Texas toast. For dessert we have salted caramel brownies topped with caramel swirl ice cream.

WOW!! Super-rocket fuel caffeinated! Tastes really good with jigger of whiskey and some Baily’s Irish Cream....
Note - it’s pressurized with nitrogen gas so it has a little fizz and froth to it when you first open it up.

That looks good. I like Sierra Nevada a lot...always a good line up of beers.
The coffee, if they have it, is in the refrigerator section because it has to be kept cold.

Not fancy but you can’t beat cheese burger with corn on the cob with grilled onions and cabbage steaks cooked on the grill along with a shot of jack daniels honey whiskey and your favorite beverage [emoji482]

The Official Start of the BBQ Season
So I hate my gas grille because I got the “contractor special” - my landscape contractor that installed it got it for a very “special” price and I paid more full price for a poorly built grille that uses lots of cheap, overseas components. Anyway, at the end of last year I noticed it was getting more and more difficult for the gasser to achieve a quick high temp (so lots of gas spent) and the flames were tinged with a little orange. Rather than deal with it then, I just closed down for the winter and figured I’d deal with it in the spring.
Today was that day!
Basically I had to strip the grille down to the firebox and clean it all up as well as repair some broken parts that were assembled using cheap aluminum pop rivets. Here’s the photo series -
Grille stripped down-

Ceramic flame arresting briquettes remove (need new ones as these are disintegrating)-
View attachment 74813
Cleaned up and opened up all the holes in the burner tubes. I also adjusted the air intake opening by an additional 1/16”
View attachment 74814
Reassembled and grease cleaned off with Easy-Off
(Note to all the pool sissies that whine about MA vapors .... breathing in aerosolized caustic sodium is way worse!!)

As for the inaugural meal -
Bacon-wrapped filet mignon, boiled corn on the cob and jalapeño poppers!!

I will agree to most tasks for free beer...
I am currently trying to grille steaks in a dust storm. There should be mountains in that scene -

With 25MPH winds and gusts up to 35MPH, the grille is barely breaking 200F....this could be a low & slow meal
