Summer means grilling! When warm weather arrives, we are always happy to move our cooking and dining outdoors. Marty is really looking forward to firing up his Big Green Egg again this year, so we can enjoy our grilled favorites and maybe even try some new recipes.
For several years, I’ve been happy to shoot summer grilling features for USA Weekend Magazine (with styling by Lisa Cherkasky). This year, they spotlight Chef Bobby Flay, who offers grilling tips in “All Fired Up!”. Our photos help to feature these recipes from his cookbook, Bobby Flay’s Barbecue Addiction: “Nectarine, Black Pepper and Blue Cheese Salad” (above), and “Fire-Roasted Baby Lamb Chops with Smoked Paprika-Orange BBQ Sauce” (below). This book is offered as part of USA Weekend’s weekly cookbook-giveaway sweepstakes.
In the interview, Flay says he loves his Big Green Egg grill, too—just like Marty, my favorite chef. Maybe one of these recipes will inspire new summer favorites for you, too. Happy grilling!
