​The way I look at it - we are just now approaching prime grilling season in Atlanta.  Standing on my back deck at in the middle of July with the afternoon sun beating down is absolutely brutal.  I end up running in and out of the house over and over again, just to try and avoid the excessive heat.

​Now that I can actually stand on my deck without burning the bottom of my feet and touch the furniture without the risk of third degree burns, I am back to grilling most of our meals.  I love to cook food on the Big Green Egg - somehow it just makes everything taste better.

​For a girl from Northeast Ohio who is used to summer grilling and summer picnics, this is the weather I've been waiting for - even if it is the middle of September.

Thread sausage onto skewers, alternating with bell pepper, zucchini and onion.  Brush with marinade.
​I even put together a few "vegetable-only" skewers for me with the extra veggies.

Put the skewers on the grill.
Remove from grill and brush with extra marinade.

Serve the skewers with rice and voila - a beautiful and delicious grilled dinner!

​My family really liked these skewers.  I liked the vegetarian option and Ben and Courtney liked the sausage skewers.   Totally worth waiting until September for optimum grilling weather.

Ciao!
