Happy Grilling- From my backyard to yours

Shown above are pork chops (L) and NY strip steaks. 

What's your favorite marinade for summertime grilling? I think that my top 5 marinades are-

1. Teriyaki sauce particularly for beef (as seen above)
2. A good Robusto Italian salad dressing (generic store brand works as well as the national brands offering a great tang and body 
3. In the dry rub category, I tend to go for a garlic salt and black pepper mixture
4. Honey garlic soy sauce 
5. Multi mix dry rub - Garlic powder, smoked paprika, dry ground mustard, brown sugar, onion powder, black pepper

Just few final thoughts on grilling safety-

1. Use common sense-  grill outside and a safe distance away from structures
2. Don't be a dirt ball- Clean your grill. It will prevent flare ups and the food will taste better
3. Monitor the grill- I have found that if I prepare in advance for the grill including supplies, food and utensils  I don't have to leave the grill unattended. It only takes a second for things to get out of hand. As always think Safety First!!
