Servings 4 servings

Equipment

• 1 Propane Grill

Ingredients

• 4 8 oz Salmon filets
• 1 1/2 lbs Asaragus
• 2 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 tsp Salt and pepper
• 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 1/2 tbsp Lemon juice

Instructions

• Preheat the grill to grill to a temperature between 400°-425° and begin to meal prep.
• Using a paper towel, gently pat dry each salmon filet.
• Mix 2 tsp of olive oil with garlic powder.
• Drizzle top of each salmon fillet with 1 tsp of olive oil mixture and season top with salt and pepper to taste.
• Trim the ends from asparagus stalks. Drizzle 1 tsp of olive oil mixture over asparagus and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. 
• Drizzle lemon juice over the asparagus.
• Place salmon filets into foil and fold or pinch the sides of foil up and over the top of the fish until it is completely enclosed with about an inch of space on top for the foil to allow the air to circulate.
• Prep and wrap asparagus in foil the same way as salmon filets.
• Place packets on grill. Salmon typically cooks quickly, however grill time for salmon depends on the size and thickness of the filets. Typically, it only takes 8 -10 minutes to fully cook. Other cook times: 8-minutes medium rare, 10-minutes medium, 11-minutes medium-well, 13-minutes well-done.
• Asparagus typically takes 12-15 minutes to cook but may take a little longer depending on the size and thickness of the stalks.
• Remove salmon in tinfoil from grill and use a fork to determine doneness.
• Let the filets rest approximately 3-5 minutes before serving.
• Optional seasoning or garnish: 2 tablespoons of parsley, cilantro, or dill sprinkled on top of the salmon and asparagus. Use a few pieces of thinly sliced lemon to top the salmon filets and asparagus.

There is a simple solution to this pancake mess, and it’s sitting right in your backyard: your propane grill. That’s right! Fry your latkes outside on your propane grill and eliminate the mess and grease smell.

You can fry them ahead of time or make frying them on the grill the star of your holiday gathering. Light a fire outside, make some winter-themed drinks, and you can get your guests out of the kitchen and into the fresh air.

We know everyone has their favorite potato latke recipe, usually passed down from generation to generation so we encourage you to prepare your latkes the way you normally do. The difference is at fry time:

1. Before you shred the potatoes, set a large rimmed cast-iron griddle or 2 large cast-iron skillets on a propane grill and heat to medium-high (400°). Make sure the grill is level so that oil will flow evenly across the griddle; you may have to add shims (such as pieces of cardboard) under your grill’s feet.
2. Carefully drizzle enough oil into the griddle or skillets to reach a level of ¼ inches deep in the hot skillet. Drop spoonfuls (about 1 1/2 tbsp. each) of potato mixture onto the griddle and spread about 1/4 in. thick. Fry latkes, covered, until crisp-edged and golden brown underneath. Using 2 spatulas, turn over and grill until cooked through 5 to 8 minutes total. Lift to a platter lined with paper towels or baking sheet (if making ahead of time) and press gently with more paper towels to remove excess oil. Sprinkle with salt if you like.
3. Serve warm with your favorite toppings and call us when ready (or at least tag us in your shared photos on social media).

Everyone frets about how they’re going to (1) fit a giant turkey into the oven and (2) fit anything else in the oven at the same time. The answer to freeing up valuable oven space is simple: use your propane grill! It might not be the most common method, but your bird will turn out just as plump and juicy as it would in a traditional oven.

Before you do any turkey prep, the most important step is to make sure your propane tank is full. You don’t want to run out of propane in the middle of cooking!

You can defrost and prepare your turkey in the same manner you would traditionally. However, we recommend placing the bird in a doubled up disposable roasting pan. This will prevent any issues with placing your metal roasting pan on the grill (discoloring and possible warping) and makes clean-up a breeze!

At go time:

1. Pre-heat your grill to medium-high heat (around 450 degrees F) and turn all burners on.
2. Once the grill has reached 450 degrees F, place the turkey in the double lined disposable roasting pan breast side up. Pour 1 to 2 cups of chicken broth in the bottom of the roasting pan.
3. Place the roasting pan on the grill and turn the center burner to medium-low. Close the grill. You want to maintain a temperature between 425 to 450 degrees F during cook time.
4. Grill the turkey for 2.5 to 3 hours, checking the bird every 30 minutes or so, basting with juices from the bottom of the pan.
5. Halfway through cook time, rotate the roasting pan and add more stock to the bottom of the pan if needed.
6. After 2 to 2.5 hours (depending on your birds size), check the turkey’s temperature. You want the temperature taken in the thigh to reach 180 degrees F.
7. Once finished, let the turkey rest for 30-60 minutes.
8. Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Important reminders to ensure a safe holiday for everyone:

• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Whether it’s assembly, use, maintenance, cleaning, or storage, make your grill manufacturer’s instructions your go-to resource for safe grilling.
• Position the grill in a safe location. Keep your grill outdoors and at least five feet from the house on a level surface that is clear of outdoor furniture, overhead trees, or other potential fire hazards.
• Check for leaks. Use a soapy water solution to check connections for leaks. Expanding bubbles indicate a leak. Follow this procedure every time you replace a cylinder
