You use Weber brand Chicago Steak Seasoning? I use that often and it is tasty on burgers.

I grill more in the fall/football season than summer, but I do a fair amount in summer as well. Our favorite summer grilling is veggie sandwiches...we slice up peppers, mushrooms, zucchini/yellow squash and onions (sometimes eggplant) and grill it in a marinade. We buy fresh ciabattas from a local bakery and toast them on the grill with a fresh garlic/butter mix and add mozzarella cheese and despite no meat, they are freaking delicious. We eat that almost every week in summer/fall when we can get the fresh veggies from farmers market.

It’s one of my favorite seasonings to use. My wife got this Greek seasoning one time, and it’s absolutely amazing to use on veggies. Can’t remember the name of it.

Have to tell a story. So my physical address is in one small town and my PO Box is in another small town about 3 miles away. I've gotten to know people in both Post Offices, so most times no matter how something ships I still receive it. Amazon is the worst because you order 3 things on an order and they will ship 3 different ways.  Soooo I decided about a year ago as a result of the Grill Season thread Mile has already linked I decided to order a smoker. Since two engineers I used to work with went to work for MasterBuilt in Columbus GA, I decided to order a smoker from them. Unfortunately, that smoker is still stuck in some kind of Fed Ex purgatory!!! To this day I have never smoked anything! Already thinking about trying to order another one. Thanks Jaybob!

You’re welcome, always glad to help fuel a healthy addiction

Jaybob, this summer I will be back in the Lou to compete in a Ribfest. I'll let you know the dates when it gets closer. You may want to show up. I've won 2 of the last 3 years. It's west suburbs.

Yes please do, would love to come and bring the family! 

Have to bring this thread back to life, especially for Mile  lol. Share pictures, recipes, equipment, etc. 

Probably one of my favorite things to grill is my take on a Black & Blue Burger. I try to use 80/20 meat, but normally I’m forced with 90/10 because of the wife. Anyway, instead of putting the blue cheese crumbles on top, I mix it in the meat with the bacon bits and seasoning. For seasoning, I really like the Chicago Steak seasoning. Gives the blue cheese and bacon a really nice balance. 
 

For smoking, I love doing pork loin and chicken quarter thighs. I like doing my own brines and rubs. I plan on doing a lot more smoking this summer, very excited.
