My Texas friend also sent me a shaker bottle of his “Secret Spice Mix #2” dry rub for meat. We had a few boneless pork chops so I rubbed them with his rub after brining them first. Tossed them on the gas grill and cooked ’em up right.
Stir-fried some peas, red bell peppers, and onions.
Served the pork chops with the veggies and mashed potatoes on the side. I like my pork a with a little pink in the middle.

Tied up a beef tenderloin, then smeared with olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. Grilled on a hot grill, turning every few minutes until it was seared on all sides.
Made a dough using flour, salt, pepper, egg whites, and chopped parsley. Rolled the dough out flat and laid the beef in the middle. Pulled up the dough around it and crimped the edges. The dough was quite wet so had to use the extra dough to patch the holes. It went into a 400*F oven to roast.
Salmon fillet was sprinkled with salt and pepper, then grilled for 4 minutes per side. Dressing is a lemon-dill sauce. Mashed potatoes with granulated garlic, buttermilk, and parsley flakes. Steamed cauliflower on the side.
The fish came out perfect, but there was some sticking on the grill grates. Gotta remember to oil the grates before cooking.
