Grillin’ and Chillin’
Start the summer off right with Food Network’s Grillin’ and Chillin’ week. As part of their week-long tribute to BBQ and Grillin’ they will run tons of BBQ content and have a webpage with tip and tricks… but the real gem will be on tuesday night at 9pm. That is the night that they will air a show titled Grill Grills and it will be featuring a local all-female BBQ team, CeeCee’s Bar-B-Q. It was filmed at the Rose Bowl BBQ contest… yes, people in California actually do Barbecue and compete. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Gone Grillin’ - Yahoo! Buzz Log
A co-worker, DB, sent me this little blurb from the Yahoo Buzz Log. It seems that people search for the word “barbecue” more during the warmer months…. hmm, funny how that works. Aside from the blurb there are a couple of links to check out or just leave a comment.
BBQ show needs grillers
This came to me an hopefully someone can take advantage of this oportunity:
Do you love to Grill? Would you like to be on TV? A TV producer looking for an LA cast for an upcoming episode of the new show, “Dinner Date” for the Fine Living Network. They are featuring a grilling cooking class and need several couples who love to BBQ. Taping would take place June 1 and 2 in Santa Monia. Please contact: shannon (at) nancyglassproductions.com if you are interested. No previous TV experience is required. Just a love of Grilling! Act fast! Thanks!
May is National BBQ month
Last year I kicked off national BBQ month with the 7in7 , seven restaurant reviews in seven days. Unfortunately I will not be starting in the first week of May, but will try to get things going on the second week. The restaurants that I choose will come from my handy BBQ restaurant list. This will be a little more difficult this year because I will attempt not to repeat any restaurants previously reviewed and will have to do much more driving. I have a feeling that this will be a good year for the 7in7… how can you go wrong with visiting 7 BBQ restaurants? A couple of restaurants that you can count on me visiting this year will be Phillips and Zekes. If you have any other recommendations, let me know.
