Friday Night Heat Escape: Part Deux

Bad weather and a busy schedule have kept me away from both the grill and the blog for too long. Tonight we had some delicious filet mignon, and the results of a new method for preparing vegetables on the grill.

I cubed up some potatoes, peppers, onions and a little jalapeno, and mixed that with a about a cup of BBQ sauce. Its good to let that sit for about an hour so the sauce can start to permeate the veggies. Then you just dump it all onto a sheet of tinfoil and crimp another sheet down over the top to create a foil bag. I let it sit on the grill for about 30 minutes, while we cooked both an appetizer and the steak, and the end results were perfect. The veggies get soft and delicious without becoming mushy. BBQ sauce really helps potatoes get over their otherwise lackluster role of sitting next to the steak on your plate.
