Cooking Meat With Fire

There is something extremely manly about cooking meat with fire and on Sunday I had that chance with my new grill.

My wife and I had a deal, I bought her a house, she bought me a grill. But since we bought our home in November it was always too cold to BBQ. So when I did get to fire up my new cooking utensil I started grilling everything in sight. Steak. Chicken. Tomatoes. Onion. Zuccini.
Everything tasted awesome. I told Carrie that I want to grill every Sunday. One bite of my steak and I had her convinced.
I think one of my favorite cooking ingredients, especially when using steak, is olive oil. It's the secret to a juicy steak. Guess the secret is out now.
I used a recipe for the marinades. Next time, I'm making my own.
Have I mentioned I love my new cooking utensil?

Catching Up: Working The Holidays

The newscast doesn't take vacation. I'm grateful for my job and I love what I do but I sure don't get a lot of holidays off.

Check out how I spent Christmas Eve.

Catching Up: Man Adventure Videos

In case you didn't read the original post about our "Man Adventure" then I'll sum up. Living in SD, got a job in Utah. Drove across the country with my dad, my son and my cat.


We stopped by Mt Rushmore (or Mountain Rushmore as Tyler called it)

Add Video

We found a sandbox on our journey.


Just two kids playing..


It was such a chore to get Tyler to sleep. Eventually he tells me, "Something is making my eyes close Dada".

And finally!
