Dinner Tonight: Soy-Marinated Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Never, ever, ever, ever re-use marinade even if you boil it first. Too much potential for salmonella.

Grilling: Pork Souvlaki with Pita and Tzatziki

Why no dill weed in the tzatziki?

I was about to buy Big Oven when I discovered Cook'n. I absolutely love it. It does everything I need plus more. Check out www.dvo.com and watch the online demo. Great software.

The Fifth Night of Hanukkah: Brisket Bourguignon

Cutting with the grain usually results in stringy meat. Cutting against the grain keeps the slices intact and more tender.

I made this last night. Got out the meat slicer today for the left overs and it makes a pretty killer sandwich.

For those claiming there isn't any good authentic Gyro's in the U.S. come to Chicago. Problem solved.

@tienh5: Replacing chicken for pork should be no problem at all. Actually, when I go out and get souvlaki, I usually get the chicken.

Is it possible to replace the pork with chicken breast? (only because I have chicken in my fridge right now)

When traveling thru towns around the U.S. it's so hard to pick a great place to eat or even where to look in the town side streets etc. is this BZ Grill in Astoria Oregon ? I make notes now and will write this place as a good bet for good food. This site does yield added benefits besides friendly banter. and all the other places mentioned as good in these dialogues. I try to plan my trip routes by places to eat . boy am I getting off topic , sorry.

Unfortunately in Utah it is too snowy to break out the grill. I seared the pork loin, then cubed them, pierced them, and finished them off in the broiler. Not exactly a summer BBQ, but I think I got the jist of it. Not bad! Thanks!

I made this recipe this weekend - It's Texas - we grill year round! It was amazing - great flavor and the tzatziki was so great with this dish. This one's going into rotation!

@Alfred: I did actually add a little dill into my tzatziki, but both my fiancee and myself aren't big dill fans, and liked it better without it, so I omitted it from the recipe.

I believe this one:

can be handy if you customize it into recipe database

I like MacGourmet. I used to have Mastercook before I got a Mac, and like MacGourmet better. Recipes can be imported, but only from certain websites like Epicurious. Easy recipe entry and functions.
