Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 This weekend I did some grilling. I chopped up some eggplant, squash, bell pepper and onion into chunks. I marinated them in a combination of olive oil, garlic and pepper. Right before grilling I added lemon/pepper seasoning and dollups of butter. It retained most of its crunch. It was mm mm good. I also marinated tofu with a bottle of teryaki sauce (added garlic of course) and slapped a few slabs of that on the grill (little buggers were irritating to work with). Finally I brushed some Iyves veg-undog-thingys with some oil and grilled a package of those. Looking to do some more grilling this weekend. The grilling was with charcoal. Are their any out there that are anti-charcoal. Later this week I will try to post a lasagna recipe that I made a couple of weeks ago. The best I've ever had including those that I've tried at restaurants. PT's looks really really good. Alright, I've bored you enough...hope all are doing well.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Sounds like you had fun this weekend. I have a gas grill, but I am sort of afraid of it. I always manage to burn off the hair from my arms or singe my eyebrows when I attempt to light it. Then considering the fact that so much greasy-gross meat has been cooked on it by my husband that cooking anything over it now makes whatever I cook practically non-vegetarian. What I do now is gril my veggies and any soy-meats in heavy foil to avoid all contact... and I make him light that grill. Interesting article on the grill smog, too. Hey, if you can find those Worthington brand veggie hotdogs, I recommend them over the Yves brand. I found a can recently and was very pleased and I have tried Yves and MorningStarFarms (the ones in regular looking hotdog packaging). The canned Worthingtons have all those puppies beat for flavor and texture, IMO. Have you tried the Boca brats? They are very yummy, too. ~ PT ~ All you need is a little nerve and a willingness to be considered an embarrassment, then you just keep pushing. ~ Abbie Hoffman ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~> , " _- matrixenos -_ " < matrixenos@h...> wrote: > This weekend I did some grilling. > > Looking to do some more grilling this weekend.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 PT~ Cooking in aluminium foil is considered by many to be unhealthy.... You may want to consider purchasing an inexpensive steel pan [such as a square cake pan, or cookie sheet] for use on the grill. It's what I use, and it works great!

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Thanks for the invitation to this list. I've been a vegetarian since 1969 and am raising and homeschooling a vegetarian 9 year old son whose mom died of cancer. Worthington hot dogs, veggie links, are good; their super links are better; their 'saucettes' are best, tasting more sausage-like. That corn dog batter recipe should work cooking the veggie dogs in griddle cakes. That's how I make hush puppies and other commonly deep fried foods. --- Be kind. Be of good cheer.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 " PT~ Cooking in aluminium foil is considered by many to be unhealthy " Hmmm, I was wondering about aluminum foil as well as the charcoal. I grilled on foil as well. Some just laid flat and some in order to steam. Don't really know what studies to believe these days.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Good idea on passing the buck on lighting that ole grill P_T , lol. Worthington aye, in a can? Are they packed in juice like cocktail weiners? I must admit, the Yves turned out looking very strange (where the flame hit it anyway). Somewhat hollow and all out of sorts. But, I guess it's all about the taste. Thanks for the recommend. Never tried the brats...did see they had a chorizo substitute, but it was very soft and I figured it would be hard to handle on the grill. Houston Astros fan day this Saturday...$1 hotdogs, popcorn and pop. I wonder what the chances are there veggie dogs are a buck. Probably a long shot. I wonder what the chances the pop is the pop with the special foam on top.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Let's see, yes, the Worthingtons come in a can, but I don't know anything about cocktail weiners and how they are packaged so I can't tell you one way or another about them or if the Worthingtons are different. I can tell you that the Worthingtons were in a sort of thick syrupy brine; quite similar to the liquor in a can of prepared beans that one must rinse off well before using. You open the can, and all the hotdogs are standing at attention upright. You pour the puppies out and give them a nice bath, then dress and cook them as you wish. I didn't try grilling mine outdoors, but I did fry them a tad in a bit of olive oil just to brown them. The results you got with those Yves...the hollwing effect and all, now that is quite odd. Maybe the heat was too much and placing them up on the indirect heat shelf of your grill (assuming you have one) would serve you better? ~ PT ~ Live a good, honorable life.Ê Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time. ~ The Dalai Lama ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~> , " _- matrixenos -_ " < matrixenos@h...> wrote: > Good idea on passing the buck on lighting that ole grill P_T , lol. > > Worthington aye, in a can?

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 I bet those Worthingtons are better with that brine and all. That reminds of those cocktail weiners a long time ago...Basically how you described the Worthingtons except they are shorter and the brine is less thick (they were standing at attention as well, lol). Well, I had one of the grilled Yves for lunch today......BLEH. It kind of reminded me of the real hotdog days....put on a lot of toppings to smother the taste of the dog. I'll stick to boiling/steaming them next time. I think you are right about the grilling part (indirect). Maybe I should have steamed them a bit as well to bring in some moisture (even though the inst. didnt' require it). Oh well, the grilled veggies are great. Maybe I'll make a batch of veg chili to mask the flave of them dogs...cuz they taste like they've been barkin.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Yes, they were astonishingly good. I was thinking like Kennether there and saying " ew " when I heard they were packed in a can in a syrup brine, but I think it was one of the members here...maybe Pat Meadows who said she rather liked them best, so I was happy to find them.
