Grillin’
It was a busy weekend – dinner with Kolina’s parents and then poker at Jon’s on Friday. G.I. Joe on Saturday. Santa Cruz on Sunday.
But, the focus of this post is that I bought a grill this weekend. With all the great weather in the Bay Area and no outdoor cooking to show for it, I finally did something about it and purchased a Weber Spirit E-210 from Home Depot. My Dad has grilled with a Weber Genesis for many years, and I thought this would be a good choice for an entry level LP grill that would last me a long time.
The grill came in its own, huge, box:

On Sunday, we dove headfirst into grilling. After obsessively checking the grill for gas leaks, it was ignited and hit 400 degrees for some corn with butter and cilantro:
