Got a new charcoal grill for Father's Day and I'm wanting to branch out from just burgers and hot dogs. What are your go to recipes that the family actually eats? I'm thinking maybe some chicken, fish, different stuff. Nothing too complicated because let's be real I don't have a ton of free time.
Brisket my friend. It's a commitment but watching it all day is kind of therapeutic. Perfect Father's Day grill project.
Charcoal is the way to go! I'd say start with chicken thighs if you haven't done those yet. Way more forgiving than breasts and they taste amazing. Plus they're cheaper for experimenting.
Nice! I'd say start with something that forces you to get good at temp control. Chicken thighs are forgiving but ribs will teach you everything about charcoal grilling.

Ribs. Seriously, just do ribs. Low and slow over charcoal is unbeatable. I do mine for about 5-6 hours and the kids go nuts. I can send you my rub recipe if you want.
