Easter Ugh

Posts: 194
Our annual neighborhood Easter shindig committee is asking what it is that I'm going to egg this year. Ham? Ugh, not again. And I'm suffering from pulled pork burn out (yeah, I know, but it can happen. Be careful out there, people) and, as you may recall, I am incapable of cooking an edible brisket. Chickens might be a possibility but I think I can only spatchcock two and fit them on the grill - which may not be enough...[p]With that in mind, anyone got any creative ideas for something to serve a group of undetermined size? Right now I'm leaning towards pork or beef tenderloins but I'm open to suggestions. What are you cooking?![p]RE

randomegger,[p]I'm doing marinated Lamb Kebobs this year with Tzatiki sauce on the side. Hmm Good.

GrillMeister,
What do you marinate your lamb in?
-
randomegger,[p]What about pulled beef or a big pot of chili or posole?[p]
[ul][li]Posole (Pozole) recipe[/ul] -
edbro,[p]Lamb Marinade:
l T. coarse black pepper
l T. Kosher Salt
l/2 t. cayenne pepper
l t. cardoman, chopped fresh thyme, chopped fresh oregano
l T. paprika
2 T. dijon mustard
4 T. chopped fresh garlic
4 T. grated onion
l C. yogurt[p]Marinate for 24 hours.[p]Tzatziki Sauce[p]1 quart container plain yogurt
1 cup sour cream
1 cucumber - peeled and grated
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lemon, juiced
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
6 cloves garlic finely minced[p]Before you mix all these together, grate the cucumber into a colander and let sit for a while to get the water out. You might even use some paper towels to soak up the water.[p]Then mix well and let sit for a day for all the flavors to infuse. This stuff rocks![p]Cheers,[p]GrillMeister

GrillMeister,
Thanks, I'll give this a try. Not much of a lamb fan myself but my wife is a Turk and grew up with lamb as a diet staple.

GrillMeister,
Even one step better. Why get stuck with gobs of extra food or have to listen to people say " I don't like that".
Have a "BYOB" BBQ Party. Bring your own "Bab" (Kebab)
They only take a few min on the egg. Fresh hot food for all...Might bring a few extras such as pre soaked skewers, Dizzy Pig spice, some brush on marinade of your choice.

randomegger,[p]Here is something fun for a side snack. How about Armadillo Eggs? You take a Jalapeno pepper, cut the top off and de-vein and de-seed it. Mix up some cream cheese and yellow food coloring and pipe it into the peppers. Make a patty of sausage, then wrap the pepper inside forming kind of an egg shape. Barbecue just like a fatty until the sausage is 165° - 170° then rest to let the cheese set up. Slice about 1/2" thick. The slices will look like hard boiled eggs thanks to the food coloring.[p]~thirdeye~

DO A TURKEY BREAST
inject with swanson chicken broth & smoke till done 180F -
randomegger,[p]Kielbasa is traditional Easter fare on the Polish side of my family and is great on the pit. Not Hillshire Farms - try to get some that's made locally, either smoked or fresh, or both.[p]Turkey breast injected with something like a creole butter injection and rubbed with Tony Cachere's or Pappy's seasoning would be great, too.[p]Lee

My traditional Easter cook is a rabbit. I typically will cook 2 or 3 given the size of the crowd that's around and serve it with some nice grilled vegetables.
