Are you the kind of person that can eat the same thing for days on end? I'm not, but the Missus is. Once She finds something She really enjoys we can have it for days on end. Case in point; the Missus has found She really enjoys beef flap….grilled. To the point where we had this for 4 out of six days recently.
She had salads; I ended up with sandwiches which basically looked about the same.
Basically, weeknight grilling, which is an exercise in prep….. start the charcoal; prep, get it going, eat, then clean, I've had a bit of practice with this now, so with a thin, lean, but ultra-flavorful cut like the flap, it's pretty easy.
Seasoned with Ghost pepper-salt, cumin, granulated garlic, Spanish Paprika, sea salt, pepper, and Mexican oregano. A couple of squeezes of lime while grilling over a very hot grill….this is an easy one.
On the fifth day I got a break…..on the sixth, She said "it's time for a change of pace….."
So we had tacos…..sigh…..
Since this was a weekend, I did a quick brine with some air-chilled chicken thighs and used almost the same seasoning, except this one had ground Chipotle. I soaked some of the random, small wood chips, then threw on the coals after the beef was done. I covered the grill and did a quick hot smoke of the chicken….it turned out very moist and full of flavor……
So what have you been eating lately?
