Steaks and a burger


Goals for this season:
-Turn the BBQ on by myself >:(
-Make chicken/beef shawarma -- I FINALLY mastered tahini, now it comes down to making the meat come out moist

How do you make your tahini?

what do you do to marinade your shawarma?

Thanks!

[Akash]

Tahini (closest I can get)

1 part tahini
2 parts yougourt
lemon juice (you can always add, but you can't take back)
garlic (add, but can't take back)
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil if it's too runny
water if it's too thick
add some vinegar if you think it could use some
parsley is ok

put ingredients in a container
mix with a hand-blender (key, stirring doesn't cut it)

if you don't have a hand-blender, use a food processor


Marinade (not the closest...but I guess it's ok)
Basically the same ingredients as above minus the tahini

The hard part for me is figuring out how to cook it...I'm going to try BBQ'ing this summer. I tried to do it in a saucepan...wasn't that good. Mind you, I used chicken breast (cubes) so it was really dry...

i've never heard of putting yogourt in tahini ever in my life.

that's good

i love BBQ, luckily for me, I BBQ all year round, dad built us a fairly decent size shed, but i totally agree, bbq in the open backyard with everyone sitting around is a lot better than sitting in the shed

i know what you mean... i did steaks a couple weeks back, it was great.

the bbq is in the deck which is not attached to the house, so i dont use it too much during the winter.
i love bbq season!! :)

We keep our BBQ outside so once its gone for the winter, it's pretty much put away. its wrapped up in that protective sheet and all that, so im heavily anticipating a season full of grilling!!!!

Gonna have to wash it good after it sitting all winter though, not looking so forward to that! BBQ's are freaking MESSY

Tahini is just Sesame seeds, garlic, and lemon juice with some olive oil to make it blend. S&P to taste.
