Being able to grill may not seem like a luxury if you live in a house with a yard and the standard backyard patio/BBQ set up. But having lived in an apartment with no outdoor space for the past 15 months, being able to grill is like a whole new world of cooking has become available. We just moved into a new apartment with a small balcony, the perfect size for a grill and two chairs. The first thing we did (not literally, but very close to it) was count up 15 months of accumulated change and head down to Home Depot to purchase a grill.
Fun facts about our new grill:
1. I love it
2. It only took Ryan an hour to put it together (not including the brief break for lunch, since hunger was impairing ability to assemble)
3. There is only one leftover part after finishing assembly, Ryan has convinced me it's just an 'extra' bolt
So many grilling benefits!

Grilling seems to necessitate gathering people together to eat meats (perfect!) - or maybe it was because this past weekend is all about the cookout - we bought a lot of meat, grilled a lot of meat and got to spend time with friends we haven't seen in awhile.
I'm also liking the grill option for a quick, easy, clean and non-hot kitchen meal option. Throw asparagus and pork chops on grill, eat 10 minutes later, clean 2 plates - perfect!
And now I can try all those grilling recipes/ideas I've been ignoring. Here are a few I am interested in checking out...
