Knob Creek is helping guys step up their summer game with a new series called the “Meat Master Class.” Chef Michael Symon gives tips on how to master the grill and shares great recipes featuring booze. Given that it’s a Knob Creek production, the classes will all use their bourbon, but that works out well for me because it’s my stand-by bottle.
Grill and master are two words that would never go together to describe me unless it’s followed by a belly laugh, so I’ll definitely be paying attention to Chef Symon as the summer rolls. I’ll be sure to share any of the videos that are especially useful, but until then just wing it with the recipe. It sounds much more simple than the Jagermeister Chicken Tacos that I made last week.
