A Kebab Workout

We gave our Weber Q-200 a real workout last weekend. I don't work for Weber but I can't say enough good things about the little Q-200. So small on the outside, so spacious on the inside.

We fit about 10 skewers on there, a few with chunks of sirloin and many more with onions, peppers and mushrooms -- everything got a coating of olive oil, salt, pepper and my special ingredient, Goya brand powdered Adobo. My love for Adobo is matched only by my love for the Q-200.

That's a spring onion in the foreground. We discovered them in Mexico City, grilled and served in baskets at every taqueria.

Like taco night, only Vietnamese. Lay out mint leaves, basil, cilantro, sesame seeds, peanuts, sliced radishes with sugar and soy sauce, lime wedges, sliced jalapenos, a jar of chile-garlic sauce, whole leaves of butter lettuce and leftover carrot-beet salad. Meanwhile, marinate the skirt steak in fish sauce and slices of lemongrass. Grill the steak , slice it, lay it out with the rest of the fixings. Use the lettuce as taco-shell-like wrappers, and stuff with fixings of your choice. Wash it all down with grape soda.
