I don't know how to describe how good this smelled at this point - it was like looking at chicken but smelling apple pie.
When I got the chicken legs out of the freezer I also took out some shrimp that I'd forgotten I had. So I prepared them how I have before - marinated in beer, melted butter, lemon and lime juice, and olive oil.
I have enjoyed the grilled fruit so far. I should have put it on the grill directly this time though. But they tasted like apples straight out of an apple pie.
I had some leftover grilled potato salad so I added it as a side. The apples paired great with both the chicken and the wine. I should have taken the shrimp off the grill sooner, or put them on later. The onions weren't bad but I don't think I'd add them if I do this again.
Oh, and check out the plate. I picked up a Richmond themed plate at Tweed in Short Pump. Expect lots of pictures of it on here because it's awwwwesoooommmee! =o9
That plate is perfect Dave!! LOVE IT!! I'm thinking maybe you can grill for Nate and me on Saturday afternoon? :P Oh and the corks pic.....sooooo cool!! :)
ReplyDeleteI've seen that plate downtown at the Virginia store-it's awesome! I think I blogged about it before too. Glad you got yourself one, you are a true Richmonder. :D and btw, are you going to have any samples of any of this food? :)
