Balsalmic vinegar. I know it's a strange one, but the flavor can penetrate and the liquid can keep things on the grill so moist.

As far as blended bourbon- there's tons of it out there. Anything that's not single barrel is blended bourbon.
Cocktails: Manhattan
It's highly unlikely the first manhattans were made with american rye, it's more likely that they were made with canadian rye and eventually we started using american rye post prohibition as frankly our rye is significantly better than our kind neighbors to the north.
The reason that the proportions have been flipped over time is due to the poor quality of whisky readily available at the time when the manhattan came about.
I tend to drink my manhattan "perfect" and in similar proportion to the above, but I write my drinks in terms of jiggers. 2 large jiggers and a splash of rye (I've been using sazerac rye for a while now), 1/2-3/4 small jigger each of dry and sweet vermouth (noilly pratt on the dry, vya often times on the sweet), 3 dashes Angostura. I drink mine on the rocks due to the heavy proportion of rye.

Favorite grilling sauce is Veri Veri Teriyaki by Soy Vay. Good on beef, chicken...Even though it's the same sauce, it makes the proteins taste different.

I love using lemon-pepper. It works on chicken, steak and grilled veggies.
