Nice try

So I tried my hand at grilling Saturday, and the only thing that turned out right were the hot dogs lol. I was disappointed though. I was looking forward to grilling all week too. It was only my second time grilling, and I have a real good idea of what I did wrong.

The hamburger patties I formed were not thick enough and fell apart easily once on the grill. I later found out that it’s better to go with a 80/20 mix in the ground beef. Also, the grill was too hot when I put the patties on the grill. As a result, the burgers had too much pink on the inside.

I also tried grilling steaks, but I’m still researching what went wrong. I know for a fact that I was flipping them too much, but hey, it was my first time attempting to grill steaks. The hot dogs turned out to be delicious! I’m not a big hot dog eater by any means. The only way I’ll eat hot dogs is if it’s on the grill.

My dad, on the other hand, could eat hot dogs straight out the package blegh.

I did take pics of the patties and steak before I had them on the grill:

Here’s me before I started grilling:

When my dad used to grill out at family reunions, he would always have his hat on backwards and a white towel over his right shoulder. Anyway, I’m going to try and grill again sometime this week. I’ll try to put on a couple of patties and learn from Saturday.

Well, I’m going to get off of here and head on to bed.
