As I was listening to the radio, I heard about a recipe contest for pork and a chance to win a Big Green Egg. I know what you are saying, “What the hell is a Big Green Egg?” Well as far as I’m concerned it’s the best damn charcoal grill money can buy, and it takes a lot of money to buy one too.
I quickly came up with a recipe, purchased the ingredients and prepared the meal for my family that night, It passed with my wife, but not my kids, but hey they would rather eat hotdogs rather than steak. So with a few tweaks I submitted the recipe on the last day of the contest.
A week went buy and I thought nothing of it until I received a phone call from the radio station telling my I was 1 out of two winners for the grill. A friend and I picked the grill up the following week. The first night I cooked chicken breast it, nothing special just a breasts with olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper. They turned out great. I cooked steaks and baked a loaf of bread on it a few days later, turned out great. I’m a big fan of the Big Green Egg and I can’t wait for my next dish to cook up, deep dish pizza.
