I try not to cook in the house when summer hits.  We don’t have air conditioning and I try to keep our house cool.  But my real reason is Mike does all the barbecuing for our family!  I just need to make a side dish or salad and he takes care of the rest.  It is a really nice balance that we have together and he takes such pride in barbequing.  He has it down to a science.  Preheats the grill, makes sure that it is hot and ready to go and of course times everything to perfection.  
 
I have included 3 recipes from our website and 2 bonus recipes from my family collection.  They are so simple and easy.  
 
If we BBQ steaks or a roast, we always drizzle a little canola oil over the meat to help keep in moisture, make sure our seasonings stick to it and assist in preventing any stickiness on the grill.   Last week to celebrate my friend’s birthday, we grilled a prime rib roast and the key is searing it prior to placing it on the BBQ.  
 
Best Birthday’s Roast
 
5 lb prime rib roast
Canola oil
Steak seasoning 
 
1. Prepare the roast. Drizzle with canola oil and season with steak seasoning. 
2. Preheat BBQ on to 275 F° (140° C). 
3. In a large saucepan, preheat canola oil to medium high heat.  Add the seasoned roast and brown all sides of the roast.  Remove from sauté pan.  Place on BBQ and cook at 275 F° (140° C) for approximately 2 ½ – 3 hours. 
4. Depending on the size of your roast, you need to cook it for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).  Make sure you let the roast rest prior to slices for at least 20 minutes.  
 
 
 
 
Another family favourite is what we call Pruden potatoes.  We get our potatoes and onions from our local grower Mr. Skazyk.  You can make the recipe with one potato and onion and or several.  It all depends on your crowd.  
Here is the recipe. 
Pruden Potatoes
 
Thinly sliced red potatoes cleaned with skin on.  
Thinly slice yellow onion(s)
Canola oil
Sea salt and pepper
 
In a large bowl, add potatoes and onions.  
Drizzle with canola oil.
Add sea salt and pepper. 
Mix together to make sure everything is well seasoned. 
Place potato mixture in tin foil packets.  Seal well.
Grill on medium heat for 30-40 minutes.  
 
Here are three great summer time recipes for you family to enjoy!
