I'm no OnkelC so I can't even pretend to cook... but I can make fire and heat and manage to come up with something every now and then...

I thought beef tenderloin would be nice on the grill, but we are only four and two of us weigh under 50 pounds so an entire tenderloin was out of the question. I went for tenderloin filets instead.

First I needed music to work by:



 

Then the meat:



 

Marinate. No time to make a real marinate so this will do from off the shelf:



 

Found some corn too. Corn can be sketchy this time of year:



 

Shucking with my little piece of OnkelC on:



 

This corn is shucked!!



 

Gotta have spuds. These have a date with the microwave:



 

The meat is marinating:



 

The surf portion consists of jumbo shrimp cocktail:



 

These are going to be well done:



 

Corn is a cookin':



 

Gotta have bean for the kids. Right outof the can:



 

And now a rare pair:



 

All done:



 

Plenty:



 

In honor of OnkelC:



 

Cheers!:

really nice, Mark! There is nothing like a grilled prime cut for friday. Thanks for sharing.

Have you tried to also marinate the Shrimps and grilling them alongside the meat?

Another idea for the potatoes: wrap the raw ones in aluminum foil and place them next to the charcoal, gives them that nice bbq flavah! But it takes considerably longer than the microwave optiontime2.gif

Excellent...all except that "well done" part ref the filets.  After you nuke the potatos, rub them with olive oil, roll them in rock salt and throw them in the oven at hi-temp for about 10 minutes to crisp them up! hand6.gif

Great suggestions and in retrospect I do wish I had grilled the shrimp...

As for the spuds... time was of the essence. May be when my kids are a bit older and I don't need to be constantly dealing with the short attention spans of pre-schoolers I can actually bake a potato!!

I agree with you as I like my meat damn near raw. The wife and kids are another story though...

There is this TV commercial over here recently, called "Revierverhalten", aka Territorial behavior:
