Steak for Dinner

It's been quite a while when hubby and I went to CostCo. We've been just too busy lately. Anyhow, after our appointment with the Landscape Architect we drove to CostCo. We couldn't find the things that we needed for the house but we picked up a few grocery. Hubby bought some steak for our dinner tonight.

After the steak was completely thawed out, he seasoned the meat and we went down stairs in our apartment building to cook the meat. My husband did an excellent job grilling the steak, it was cooked right. Both of the steak was cooked medium-well (he preferred medium rare himself) and the juice was still there. It is really mouth watering, now it makes me feel hungry again just thinking about it.

What he did was seared the steak for a minute in each side. The meat is timely grilled according with the thickness of the meat. He both timed each side 6 minutes in a medium-high heat.

We had microwaved vegetables on the side. And our dinner was excellent.

Marinated Grilled Chicken

What do you think about 'Filipino Style Marinated Chicken'? Marinated in Vinegar, Soy Sauce, Finely Crushed Garlic, Finely Chopped Onion, Ketchup, and Salt and Pepper (TT). Well, to tell you, we had this food one dinner when we were camping in Wawona Campground. I marinated the chicken two nights ahead before we left home then I freeze them with ziplock. A few hours after we arrived in the campground we prepared campfire and put some charcoal for grilling. I grilled my marinated chicken, two corn in a cob wrapped in tin foil.

Good Food

When you go camping, why not eat good food, right? When we were camping in Yosemite we had pretty good dinner. Hot dogs, buns and it's condiments are perfect match. When we grill hot dogs we also toast the bun a little bit to give a little crisp to it when you have a bite. It makes it more interesting and tasty.

Corn is also a pretty good food for camping. You don't have so soak your corn before grilling or peel them and eat them burn. The way I do it is I peel the corn, wrap them with foil and grill them. It only take a few minutes to cook them depends with the heat too. When the corn is almost ready you can either sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
