What’s on the Grill

Waiting for a sirloin tip roast in the crockpot for first time. Mini spuds, carrots, onion, mushrooms, garlic, broth and 3lb roast.

Sounds yummy. Not much for mushrooms but my wife loves them. So I’ll pick around them and give them to her. Everyone’s happy.

While not grilled…. Had a Poke Bowl when we were in Maui. Tuna had been swimming that morning. It was that fresh. So good. So after getting home bought some Ahi Tuna at the local fish market. Not Pacific Ocean fresh, but pretty fresh for living in Illinois. Definitely better than anything from the grocery store. Made us our own Poke Bowl at home. Tuna is melt in your mouth it was so good.

When you first mentioned poke bowls, a while back, I found frozen ahi poke bowl “kits” at my local grocer. I decided to give them a try…essentially they are a flash frozen, vacuum sealed, pack of fish…and a sauce packet. I learned to make sushi rice that comes out tasting much like the rice used at my favorite sushi restaurants…then I add whatever…like avocado, cucumber, kimchi…whatever. This has been an enjoyable experience, and I thank you sir…for planting the seed.

Not sure what “sushi” rice is. Too lazy to look it up. I’ve been using Jasmine rice. It works.

This is the recipe I started with…I usually just make a 1/2 batch.
