Baked ziti tonight...

[K Frame]

Cold and crappy out, so that seems as if it's a good dinner.

Just going to throw it together, no real recipe.

Turned out rather well. I used 80% ground beef this time, normally I use either ground turkey or turkey sausage. I just don't eat much beef anymore.

I love baked Ziti. I usually use links of pork Italian sausage cut up for my meat.

SWMBO makes baked ziti now and again.  Good stuff.

As do I. I will typically roast or grill them first for flavor. Much better IMO they just using a pan on the stove top.

Sometimes I'll also go a little Greek by adding a bechamel/egg mixture to the top, as one would with pastitsio. I find it to be quite a nice addition.

I normally add one egg to the ricotta cheese mix. That gives it a distinctively different mouth feel.

I really need to get a lp grill for that reason alone. I usually brown in a cast iron skillet, but flame charred adds a slightly different flavor.

I find roasting to be the next best thing to a grill. Stick in in a 400 degree oven till brown and delicious. You're gonna be running it anyway,may as well really get it preheated.

No, I need an lp grill to go along with my Weber kettle. Making up a list of excuses to spend $500 on a heavy duty lp grill.

Ours is arriving next Saturday.  This will replace a Weber tabletop Q grill that I have used for far too long.

I had an LP grill for awhile, a second-hand one from neighbors when they upgraded.

Nice piece of kit.

I didn't like it. After the bottle of gas ran out, I went back to charcoal.

Why I want to spend a little more on a better lp grill.

I don't think I'd be happy with any LP grill. It's still cooking with dinofarts.
