I don’t think I was ever taught ‘how’ to cook. I mean, no one ever spent any amount of time in the kitchen showing me how to do this and that. I can certainly however credit both of my parents whom are amazing cooks with allowing me utilize all the tricks, tools, recipes and knowledge that they had growing up – and I think a lot of that pays off in the end.
It’s kind of like riding a bike in that regard, once you know how to cook a turkey, or scramble eggs, you don’t really forget. You really only improve on things (hopefully).
Cooking a steak on the BBQ is one of those thing that I think I’m pretty good at now, but it’s something that you always think you can do better, at least ‘I’ think that anyhow. I am by no means a master BBQ chef, but you know – that’s good, cuz I like to learn as much as I can and to try new things. Especially in the summer, beer in hand and steak on the grill!
La Grille (whom make the great Montreal Steak spice which I use all the time) are holding a contest called “La Serious Griller Contest” in which you could win $300 in gear from Canadian Tire and a deluxe La Grille Barbecue Seasoning Pack.
I know this cuz I was on their site watching Chef Michael (no.. not Michael Smith) give some tips on BBQ-ing steaks and a little about the cuts of beef. It’s a great watch and if you’re intimidated by the BBQ (I know Liz.. umm.. is a little) it’s worth a watch! (Click here to check it out), I had no idea how to cook a flank steak (the cheaper one) but the instructions are pretty simple.
