GRILLED HERB POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat; see Grilling Procedure .
• Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch-thick slices and cook in a large pot of well-salted boiling water 10 minutes (potatoes will not be cooked through).
• Meanwhile, stir together herbs, garlic, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large shallow dish.
• Drain potatoes well and transfer to herb oil, tossing gently to coat.
• Transfer potatoes to grill, letting excess oil drip into dish (reserve oil in dish). Grill potatoes, covered, turning once or twice, until tender, about 5 minutes total. Return potatoes to dish and toss again with herb oil. Squeeze lemon wedge over potatoes. Season with salt and serve with additional lemon wedges.

GRILLED POTATO WEDGES WITH FRESH HERBS

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes and cut lengthwise into 2-inch wedges.
• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain.
• Stir olive oil, chives, oregano, and parsley together in a large, flat dish. Place potatoes into the oil mixture and turn to coat.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and spray the grate with cooking spray.
• Place potatoes onto the hot grill and cook until lightly golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Flip potatoes, adjust the heat to high and grill for another 5 minutes. Add salt to the remaining oil and herb mixture. Add grilled potatoes, turn to coat, and serve.

GRILLED POTATOES WITH ASIAN SEASONINGS

Steps:

• Set up the grill for indirect grilling and preheat to medium.
• Cut 4 sheets of heavy-duty foil, each 14 X 8 inches. Place a sheet of foil, shiny side down, narrow edge toward you on the work surface. Smear a tablespoon of the butter in the center of the bottom half of the rectangle (the half closest to you).
• Mix the soy sauce, sesame seeds, garlic and scallions.
• Top each buttered area with 1/4 of the potatoes and 1/4 of the soy sauce mixture. Season with salt and pepper before closing up the packages.
• Fold the top half of the foil over the potatoes and bring the top and bottom edges together. Fold the edges over several times to make a tight seal.
• When ready to cook, place the foil packages in the center of the hot grate, away from the heat. Cover the grill and cook until the packages are dramatically puffed, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Serve, warning everyone to open the packages at arm's length, using knives and forks, as the escaping steam will be very hot.

SHORT RIBS IN SLOW COOKER WITH ASIAN SEASONINGS

Steps:

• Place everything except garnish in slow cooker.
• Cover and cook until meat readily falls off bone. Usually 8 hours low, or 4+ hours high.
• Options: Add salt if needed. Can double the 5 spice powder for stronger flavor. Can throw in carrots or turnips an hour or two before finish.
• Remove meat and skim fat from liquid.
• Serve meat and some liquid over white rice or egg noodles and garnish with green onion or cilantro.
• I usually make 5 pounds short ribs, because it seems to taste better the next day.
