The “On Our Grills:4 Ingredient Challenge”began in the Fall of 2010 with four BBQ friends who were looking for a way to challenge themselves with ingredients they might not normally cook with.  And if they did cook with the ingredients it was never in the combination with them all.

We like the word Challenge,not because this is a contest,but because we try and challenge each other and ourselves to come up with creative and unique ways to incorporate all the ingredients into one meal.  We don’t have a bunch of rules.  For the most part there’s only two.  The meat (or protein) has to be cooked outdoors using some type of traditional outdoor cooking method.  We don’t really care if it’s a charcoal or gas grill,a smoker,a dutch oven or anything else as long as it’s cooked outdoors using some type of “open flame.”

If  you think you might have the cooking chops to join our little group of nuts drop me an email using the link above.  You must have an active (and by active we mean very active) food blog,the ability to cook outdoors and a good sense of humor.  If random emails from Challenge Members with little messages of encouragement (and taunting) upset you then don’t bother asking to join.
