Can't wait for dinner time.

My wife pulled out some chicken for dinner tonight.

Well, I looked through our stash of marinades & what not and found some "Fiesta Chicken" marinade, which sounded good.

So, I mixed up the marinade and put the chicken in to "soak".

Then when it hits dinner time, I'll fire up the old CharBroil BBQ/Grill/Smoker and cook it.

Once I brown / "give the meat some color", I move it off the direct heat, and then start tossing in chunks of apple wood, which really, really gives the meat a great flavor in addition to any of the rubs or marinades that I use.

I like it and family & friends seem to love my BBQ cooking.

Previously I used to mix up a concoction of BBQ sauce, but nothing really turned out that tasty until I got this grill and started cooking as I mentioned above.

Now everything is almost perfect.

In fact, I'm so "spoiled" that I've become a "steak snob". I don't like to eat steaks anywhere but Applebee's... Then again, they use apple wood!

Mmm... mmm...

Anyone got a tissue? Just saying "apple wood bbq" made me start to drool...
