Grilling has always been a great alternative to liven up an otherwise boring fried dish. But the rules for grilling have changed dramatically over the years and since the days when most households have a full time wife and mother, lovingly working on a barbeque into a weekday meal and stretching Sunday’s meatloaf for a third dinner.
Most of us don’t eat every meal at home, and when we do eat at home, we don’t always have the time to marinate that expensive cut of meat, mince vegetables, prepare dessert and set up the grill at the same time. We also face two foes that our mothers did not probably have to face in the past: fast food and convenience or instant food. That oversized, grease laden fast food burger sandwich and fries are so tempting but what is even better than similarly overpriced, heavily processed fast food items? Yes, a dinner of barbecued ribs or grilled chicken and mashed potatoes especially prepared at home is way better than burger and fries on queue on the grill of In and Out.
