If you have been following my blog, you know that I love to cook. I love to use the stove and oven, but during the summer our BBQ gets quite a bit of use. This summer I have been hearing different friends of mine online talk about beer can chicken. Me being the chef I am, had to figure out just what all this beer can chicken fuss is all about.
Since we like to BBQ, Chef Locke sent us a few items to review to help us make BBQ’ing more exciting this summer. Now I am even more excited about using the grill. Since I consider myself the chef around my house, I now have some extra tools to impress my family with some yummy food.
Of the items we received, we received a Beer Can Chicken Plank. This plank is made from cedar and the only one of its kind anywhere. When using this round cedar plank, it helps to keep the fat and juices from the meat from igniting over the hot coals or gas flames. It does take a little work to be able to use this plank before it goes on the grill. Before you use it, you have to soak it so that it expands around the can.
If you are one that likes to host BBQs at your house or tailgating parties, this will be a great addition to your next get together.
Another food item that has been popular on the BBQ menus lately is pizza. Since I LOVE pizza, it would only make sense to put one on the grill too! Chef Locke sent me a Pizza Pie Plank for review. I think this plank is awesome because like I mentioned before, I LOVE pizza and I LOVE to BBQ. When using this plank, you can choose to make your own pizza or throw on a frozen or take-n-bake pizza to create a unique wood flavored pizza.
With this plank, it does not need to be soaked first, so it is reusable. If you like the wood flavored pizza like you find at some restaurants, you will want to try one of these out.
Chef Locke has a line of BBQ and oven planks to help us create meals that go beyond ordinary! To find out more, please visit: https://www.tailgatingplanks.com.
