Grilling..

I decided to grill some steaks, potatoes, and green beans for me and my boyfriend last night for dinner.. It was my very first time grilling! who says it's a mans job.. But it was actually harder than I thought it would be. Turning on the grill was tricky in itself. I was using my boyfriends moms grill and you have to actually light it yourself.. it was kinda scary. lol But it only took about a couple seconds and it was good to go!

I marinaded the steaks in: soy sauce, worcestershire sauce, red wine vinegar, onions, and mustard. I let it sit in the fridge for about 10 hours.  I first cut up my red potatoes into cubes and seasoned them with salt, pepper, and butter. I wrapped them in tinfoil and put them on the grill first. After a few minutes later I put on 3 steaks.


I let them grill on one side for about 8 mins and then flipped them.. they looked so good!! I then finished up my green beans on the stove. I cooked up some bacon and then put the fresh green beans in the bacon grease and added water to let them steam.. I like mine kinda burnt. Thats when they taste the best.
I cooked the steaks just a lil too long! :/ they came out a lil tuff and a lil burnt.. They were still good but i was still disappointed. I wanted them to turn out perfect! but i was reassured by my boyfriend that everything was still very good! :)


This is what the end result was! It was really good, despite the doneness of the steaks. I told my boyfriend I still have one more marinating so i will try again tonight with one more steak and see if i can get it perfect! I will sure be blogging about it as soon as I'm done..
