Because soggy-ass hot dogs and frozen meat-discs aren’t impressing anyone …
Grilled Grilled Cheese
INGREDIENTS: Bread, butter, cheese assortment
SUPPLIES: Foil (optional)
- Begin by lightly “toasting” the bread on both sides (be sure to oil/grease the grill first so it doesn’t stick)
- Cover the insides of the bread with butter, mayonnaise, mustard … weed. Whatever.
- Layer various cheeses (or sandwich meats/veggies) like a boss
- Place back on the grill over indirect heat and cook until cheese is melted (wrap in foil for less mess
Bacapeño Poppers
INGREDIENTS: Jalapeños, cream cheese, bacon
SUPPLIES: Soaked toothpicks
- Soak toothpicks in water while preparing the rest of the ingredients to keep them from catching fire on the grill
- Cut jalapeños lengthwise and scrape out the insides
- Fill each with appropriate amount of cream cheese
- Wrap with bacon (turkey bacon works just as well for a healthier option) and stab toothpicks all the way through to hold in place
- Grill, gloat, relax, enjoy
The Ohshittdog
INGREDIENTS: Hot dog
SUPPLIES: Skewers, sharp knife
- Skewer the mystery log through the center all the way through
- Slice the dog while rotating in a spiral fashion
- Remove skewer and grill normally
- BENEFITS: The spiral cut increases surface area to ensure an even cook all the way through. As a bonus, extra crevices in the meat keep condiments from rolling around like they own the place — the longer feature also makes for a solid ratio of bun to dog ‘til the end.
Banana Some Mores
INGREDIENTS: Bananas, marshmallows, chocolate chips, Golden Grahams
SUPPLIES: Foil
- Slice banana through without puncturing the bottom
- Separate both sides with fingers and stuff with chocolate/marshmallows/Golden Grahams
- Wrap in foil and place on grill over indirect heat for roughly 5-7 minutes — sliced side up
- Get fat, live life, don’t care
HEALTH HOOKUP 
According to a report posted in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, marinating meat in a Pilsner-style beer for 4 hours before grilling cuts potentially cancer-causing carcinogens by as much as 25 percent — while using a dark beer results in a 53 percent reduction. Bottoms the F up!
