So when I picked up the Green DT Code OTP a couple of weeks ago the seller had a SJG that was dusty and sitting off in the corner of his garage. I made an offer and picked that up too. Finally got around to cleaning it up and decided to try a cook I’d normally do on a 22. Wanted to see how many chicken wings and ABTs I could get on a 13 inch SJ Grate.

The Smokey Joe Gold’s are nice because the bar you see clipped on the handle serves dual purpose.  One to keep the whole unit together when transporting which makes it the ultimate small beach grill.  Secondly when folded down it acts as a lid holder so you simply slide the lid down in between the rod and it holds the hot lid in place when you want to access the grill grates.

I used extra fine steel wool which can be purchased at the dollar store, a dish rag and some dishwashing soap.  Just like new.

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey,

My name is Rob Ackerman.
I am Freshman at Endicott College, majoring in elementary education.
When I am not studying or in class, I like to take pictures and video with my DJI Phantom 4 drone or Canon 80D.
Recently I created a slow motion video of the water and beaches here at Endicott College.

I would be honored if you shared it on your blog!

www.HeyHeys.com Yep it’s a thing I guess.  For dudes.

If you’re a guy would you wear these?

If you’re a woman would you let your man wear tights?

Live Smoke- Flank Steak Stuffed With Feta, Roasted Red Peppers, Pepperoncini and Prosciutto di Parma On The @WeberGrills One Touch Premium

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

First To Butterfly The Flank Steak with the grain.

20170217_101130-01.jpeg

Try to get it squared off when split open and laid out.

20170217_101334-01.jpeg

Season with whatever you’d like, I used Montreal Steak seasoning.

20170217_101545-01.jpeg

Next add Feta (you can use other cheeses like goat cheese if you prefer).  leave a little margin around the edges without stuffing ingredients.

20170217_102401-02.jpeg

Add sliced roasted red peppers and pepperoncini.

20170217_103149-01.jpeg

Next Prosciutto di Parma

20170217_103303-01.jpeg

Roll tightly and secure with butchers string.

20170217_103835-01.jpeg

Season the outside.  here I used Italian herb seasoning.

20170217_104152-01.jpeg

Check back for more updates.

Once grill was 350 degrees at grate temp I seared the stuffed flank steak, rolling every couple of minutes until each side had color.

20170217_113456-01.jpeg

20170217_113438-01.jpeg

Next place foil down on the charcoal grate under where we will place the stuffed flank steak, moving the roll offset the coals.  We will close the lid, place a couple of chunks of apple wood over the coals for smoke and wait til she hits 130 internal to pull it off.
