Try making these baked beans on your grill. Nice in the summer so you don’t heat up the kitchen.

2 can pork & beans (16 oz cans)
1/3 cup bottled bar-b-que sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup golden raisons
1/3 cup tart (granny smith) apples (optional)
1/2 cup onion, chopped
8 each bacon strips

Drain pork and beans and place into an oven-proof bowl. I like to use the aluminum throw away pansfor obvious reasons (I’m lazy)
Chop onion and apples and add to beans. Also add bbq sauce, brown sugar and raisons. Mix together and place the bacon strips on top.
Place in covered grill and grill at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. If you don’t have a temperature guage, that’s medium heat.

OK - I haven’t tried Bush’s Grilled Beans yet. If they are as good as his other beans, I may be switching and simply heating them up on the side burner.

The thing about Shisk Kabob on the Grill is you can put almost anything you want on the stick. Kids love them and each person can have one especially made for them. This is just a sample and shows you how to make a shisk kabob if you have never done so.

24 mushrooms
24 small onions

1. Combine oil, broth, wine, lemon juice, garlic, salt, rosemary, and pepper. Pour over the lamb, tomatoes, mushrooms, and onions. Marinate in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.

2. Start putting together skewers of lamb, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes. Grill on high heat for 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes.

Ingredients:

2 Cloves garlic; minced
2 Tablespoon(s) Butter or margarine; melted

Saute’ onion and garlic in butter in a saucepan until tender. Stir in the

simmerfor 30 minutes, uncovered.

Stir occasionally. When the sauce is finished simmering, discard the bay
leaf and lemon slices. For an even smoother texture, process mixture through a food processor.

Here’s a barbecue sauce recipe from former president Dwight D. Eisenhower.

1/4 cup butter
1 no. 2 can tomatoes, sieved (2 cups)
1/4 cup vinegar
1 Tbs. sugar
3 tsp. paprika
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. chili powder
1 1/2 tsp. Worchestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. Tabasco sauce or more according to taste
1 tsp. black pepper

Mix ingredients and simmer for about 15 minutes. Use for basting meat or chicken, and serve as sauce for it as well. This makes a lot of barbecue sauce so you will want to store some for later use.

I tried this and it is delicious, although I went light on the Tobasco sauce. I began applying it to my barbecue chicken in the last 10 minutes of grilling, and then poured some directly on the chicken when serving.

Some like it hot. This recipe was sent in to me for those who like their barbecue on the hot side!

1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup mustard
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup vinegar
1/2 cup canned pineapple juice
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Tobasco sauce
Put the molasses, mustard and brown sugar into a bowl and stir to mix well. Add the remaining ingredients and, once again, mix well.

This makes about 2 cups of barbecue sauce.

Looks to me like simply adding some Tobasco sauce to other barbecue sauce recipes is the key to kicing up the heat.

Here’s a barbecue basting sauce you can try - especially for pork, chicken and ham.

1/2 cup flat beer
2 tbsp vinegar
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
2/3 cup chili sauce
Combine all these ingredients in a saucepan and heat and stir until the sugar dissolves completely.

You know, when you have beer and honey in a sauce, it’s gotta be good.
