One of my favorite things to throw on the grill are vegetables, something magical and delicious happens when vegetables are grilled. One night, we were doing a bit of a fridge cleaning meal and ended up with ingredients for chicken cacciatore — mushrooms, peppers, chicken, etc. But, we wanted to use my Coyote OutdoorGrill, so Grilled Chicken Cacciatore was born. I didn’t have 2 big enough grill-safe pots, so this entire recipe isn’t made on the grill, but it can be if you’d like!
(To see some of my other recipes I’ve made using my beloved grill, check them out here.)
I threw in some summer squash and zucchini too, because it’s summer and we had some in the fridge. Feel free to omit.
Ingredients:
For the grill:
2 bell peppers, any colors, chopped into bite-sized pieces
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 (8 oz) container sliced baby bella mushrooms
1 zucchini, thinly sliced
1 summer squash, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, smashed
4 chicken breasts (or chicken tenders like I used)
4 chicken drumsticks
olive oil, to taste
salt and pepper, to taste
For the stovetop (unless you have oven-safe pots):
Note: I was sent a jar of Maille Rosemary Honey Mustard to try. Opinions are my own.
I’m kind of obsessed with my new Coyote OutdoorGrill. I’ve basically made a game out of finding things I can grill that are a bit outside of the box. (To see some of my other recipes I’ve made using my beloved grill, check them out here.) So, today, I bring you a grilled cheese plate, specifically a Grilled Camembert Cheese Plate.
Cheese with a thick outer rind, like a Camembert or Brie, are perfect for grilling. The inside becomes this beautiful gooey dip that I just cannot get enough of.
Just sticking a round of cheese on a grill honestly wouldn’t make for much of a recipe, so I decided to grill the whole cheese plate! I paired my lovely cheese with Grilled Rosemary Cashews and Brandied Rosemary Cherries. To finish off the plate, I included honey for drizzling as well as Maille’s Rosemary Honey Mustard that comes in the most beautiful green sandstone jar.
I was sent a jar of the Honey Mustard and I knew it would be the perfect addition to this cheese plate!

I am absolutely loving my Coyote OutdoorGrill; I have been grilling anything and everything I can find! To see some of my other recipes I’ve made using my beloved grill, check them out here. This time, I wanted to branch out and find recipes that you may not necessarily consider making on the grill.
I kept to the recipe for the most part, but added in some peaches for extra flavor because my husband loves all things peach and ended up with this recipe for Grilled Peach Old Fashioned Cocktail. I also substituted in Rye Whiskey to suit our personal tastes. Feel free to use your favorite bourbon of choice instead.
My friends and I loooooove Old Fashioned’s so I was thrilled to find a new version of our favorite cocktail. I make a mean Fizzy Old Fashioned that is a perfect “punch” for groups of friends; it’s not nearly as strong as a typical Old Fashioned, but the bourbon taste is still very present.
Ingredients:
1/2 orange, cut into slices
12 pitted cherries
1 peach, cut into quarter slices, with the stone removed
1 (750-ml bottle) rye whiskey (such as Bulleit Rye)
1 liter club soda, cold or blood orange soda, cold
ice
A quick note for my gluten-free friends. Rye whiskey, obviously derived from rye, is gluten-free. The distilling process removes the gluten proteins. So drink away!

If you’ve never had Grilled Caesar Salad before, you’re in for a treat! This variation on the classic adds a bit of smokiness from the grill. I added in some grilled tomatoes as well, because who doesn’t love tomatoes?
The dressing for this recipe is Greek-yogurt based, so its slightly tangy and perfect with the charred bits of romaine lettuce. I found the dressing recipe on myrecipes.com.
Ingredients:
For the dressing:
3 tablespoons plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 anchovy fillet, finely chopped (can omit to make vegetarian)

Last night, we finally broke in our snazzy new Coyote OutdoorGrill; it’s about time I started the Coyote Challenge! (Granted, I just got back from my honeymoon; it’s difficult to grill when you’re in a different country!) We had friends along for the adventure, so we made a few simple items to try out the grill.
Despite it being July, none of us had eaten corn on the cob yet! So naturally, we decided to make a quick grilled corn with an easy chive butter to test out the vegetable/fish grates. There isn’t much to it, so this recipe for Grilled Corn with Chive Butter was the perfect way to try out the grill for the first time.
We also shared a huge delicious piece of steak that Steve (our grill-master for the evening) had marinated first in an IPA (yum) and then transferred it into a more traditional herbed marinade (double yum). It was so juicy and delicious!
There were some other yummy grilling experiments that took place, but discussion of those are for another post. On to the recipe!
Ingredients:
4 ears of corn, shucked
1/4 cup salted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives, plus more for garnish
I am so excited to announce a summer partnership with Coyote Outdoor Living, a company known for its high-quality all premium stainless steel grills and accessories.

I will be participating in the Coyote Challenge: All summer long, I will be grilling anything and everything to show the versatility of using an outdoor grill.
Coyote Outdoor Living sent me one of their amazing grills in order to get my grilling on! Last week, I was sent a Coyote 36″ S-Series Grill, which includes three high-performing Coyote Infinity Burners, one infrared rear burner, one RapidSearTM Burner, a Rotisserie Kit, and a Smoker Box.

I was also sent some other accessories to really make the most of my grill this summer:
The Coyote signature grates are laser-cut with precision for proper air-flow and flame penetration to grill any ingredient to perfection. There are three separate types of grates: wide-set grates for seared steaks, grates designed for chicken prevent charred outsides and under-cooked insides, and fish/vegetable grates for more delicate ingredients.
The solid stainless steel charcoal tray allows me to temporarily convert one side of the grill to a charcoal grill for slow cooking, but is completely removable making the grill versatile for any cooking method.
The 14″ commercial-grade griddle allows me to even make breakfast on the grill; pancakes and eggs here I come!
The 36″ S-Series Grill is one impressive looking grill. I had to swindle some friends (and my very patient sister) into helping me move the grill and cart to the back patio and set it up.
Setting it up is a breeze (once you have the brawn to do so):
We removed the grill and the cart from their respective boxes
The cart comes fully assembled, so we just moved the cart into place on the patio. The cart:
includes two fold down shelving for solid work space in your grilling area
includes two self-closing doors, which provide storage space for barbecue tools and grilling accessories
features industrial-style locking wheel casters for portability
is made of stainless steel, and is designed to endure the elements
The S-Series 36-Inch Grill is just placed on top of the cart. The grill:
combines the power and function of a luxury grill with the durability of a Coyote grill
features premium stainless steel construction
offers stainless steel, performance enhancing heat control grids that minimize flare-ups and distribute heat evenly across its 640 square inch cooking area
is powered by three, durable cast stainless steel Infinity burners and one RapidSear infrared burner which deliver up to 90,000 BTUs of cooking power
the burners are lit by an easy to use, push and turn ignition system
includes internal halogen grill lights for grilling at night
the removable warming rack can be used to keep food heated until serving time
you can easily monitor the temperature inside your grill using the integrated thermometer
includes a rotisserie system with rear infrared burner to slow roast foods
includes a smoker box to infuse your grilled food with delicious smoke flavor
Our bedroom is right off of the patio with our new grill, so I plan on using the Coyote grill like my own little outdoor kitchen! I cannot wait to get started and to show off all of the amazing things you can make outdoors instead of heating up your kitchen in the warmer months. Stay tuned for some classics, with some “who knew you could grill that?” recipes all summer long!
