Memphis In May #15: Hanging With Grill Grrrl

Another of the great aspects of attending Memphis In May was the chance to put a face with a name and a blog.  I got a chance to meet Robyn who writes the great Grill Grrrl blog.  If you want a woman’s perspective on outdoor cooking or you need some great recipes you need to stop by Robyn’s blog (www.grillgrrrl.com).

Robyn happened to swing by the Char-Broil area as we began one of the Char-Broil All-Star Pork Smackdowns.  She sent me a couple pictures she snapped of us.

Memphis In May #13: Char-Broil Celebrity Grill-Off

One of the first events I had the pleasure of participating in was the Char-Broil Celebrity Grill-Off.  The contest featured several local Memphis radio and television personalities who were paired up with one of Char-Broils guest chefs.  The participants were:

  • Steve Conley, Host of “Conley & Karen” on Classic Hits 94.1 WKQK
  • Jay Young, Host of “The Young and Elder Show” on Kix 106 WGKX
  • Earle Augustus, Host of “Love Songs” on Soul Classics 103.5 WRBO
  • Ernie Freeman, Anchor of Fox 13’s Good Morning Memphis
  • Joey Sulipeck, Chief Meteorologist at Fox 13 Weather Authority

I was teamed up with Jay Young for the cooking contest.  Each team was given about 3 pounds pork loin and two Char-Broil Big Easy Smoker, Roaster & Grill for cook their meat.  The idea was to cut a couple of nice chops from the loin and grill those while smoke roasting the rest of the loin.
