Hamburgers! The way my dad taught me – best in the world!
Grilled steak with corn on the cob. The corn was wrapped husked, wrapped in foil with lots of butter, the steak was medium rare and so tasty……….yum. TKS for asking!
Hi Amanda!
My husband and I LOVE grilled salmon…you lather the salmon with molasses and sprinkle Season-All on top, wrap it in tinfoil (you can add veggies in the tin foil for a complete meal) and throw it on the grill. The sweet and salty makes the salmon incredible!
Oooh! Pick me Pick me!! I’m going camping in a few weekends!! :)
The best thing I have ever eaten grilled is Mexican Corn. Take an ear of corn, spread mayo over it, sprinkle with chile powder, wrap in alumninum foil and grill. Sounds strange but is AMAZINGLY delicious!
The best thing I ever ate grilled was Greek Grilled Chicken Kabobs that had been marinaded in a seasoned yogurt – it was the tenderest most flavorful chicken ever – and had feta cheese on it. I cooked it for friends one summer and everyone was blown away!
I am pretty boring-or just easy to please! Give me grilled chicken smothered in BBQ sauce or a hamburger and I am happy as can be!
I love grilled shrimp with pineapple!

Oh what an awesome giveaway!! I love it when my hubby grills in the summer :) My favorite is when he grills up pork tenderloin…we slice it up and put it on French sandwich rolls for an awesome pork tenderloin sandwich, with grilled corn on the cob on the side and a green salad. I’m getting hungry!
I LOVE to grill Salmon! My husband makes the best salmon ever! And we enjoy it with sauteed (or grilled) Asparagus with garlic and a little Parmesan. It’s the best grilled dish ever!!
Thank you so much for always having such a wonderful blog!!
Yummy yummy! I would love to win this!
My fav summer grill is grilled asparagus with grilled shrimp kabobs!
What an awesome giveaway! My grill (which was brand new and I had used all of two times) was recently wiped out in a storm, so now during grilling season I am grill-less! My favorite thing to grill is kabobs, they are so much fun and can be totally healthy! :)
I love all things grilled! My favorite are sweet potato fries on the grill. Yummy!
What an awesome giveaway! My favorite thing on the grill is my husband’s steak. He just knows how to do it just right. Delicious! Okay, now I’m hungry..LOL
My favorite grilled food is PINEAPPLE!!!!
I guess we are pretty boring people because the only thing we ever grill is hamburgers and hot dogs!!! But that chicken recipe sounds AWESOME so I might have to try that out!!! Thanks for the chance to win!!!
Grilled peaches topped with fresh vanilla bean ice cream. Super easy and SO delish!
home grown green beans!
yummy :)
Grilled pineapple soaked in coconut milk and a little bit of malibu rum is TO DIE FOR. Also, my grandmother always made yakisoba noodles on the grill, and it’s remained one of my favorite dishes!
My favorite thing is grilled pizza! YUMMO! Thanks for a great giveaway!
I love grilled shrimp.
I can’t remember having anything other than the ordinary burgers and steaks from the grill, but everything tastes better when its grilled! After reading some of the comments, I think I need to experiment a bit this summer. There are some yummy ideas!
Thanks for the chance to win!
my dad makes the BEST salmon on the grill. steaks are amazing too. =)
My ultimate favortie is grilled sirlion seasoned to perfection with butter & roquefort blue cheese topping…..oooooooohhh, so delish!
The best thing I’ve ever had grilled was pineapple burgers made by myself! Hehe. But now I have no grill so I’d love to win this one!!!!!!!!!
What an awesome giveaway!! Don’t you just love the Crisco non-stick sprays?!?!?! The “best thing I ever ate” grilled is Zucchini & Yellow Squash. I slice the zuchhini & squash lengthwise & about 1/4″ thick, rub generously with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic salt, put it on the grill just until it has good char marks on it. It is amazing and extremely simple! Red onions (don’t know why they are called red when they are purple!) are quite delightful grilled the same way and placed on your favorite burger!!
I honestly love grilled corn on the cob! :D
I love to cook barbeque chicken on the grill!
I love corn on the cob grilled!
I love everything grilled, but if I have to choose just one food it would have to be Cheicken.
My first answer was going to be a hot dog, since I LOVE barbecued hot dogs and I don’t think I ever had one that I didn’t like! But then I remembered barbecuing some steaks- filet mignons- for my Dad and family for Father’s Day one year. Awesome!
I love to grill creative burgers – throw in a few extras like jalapenos or onion or peppers and a little pat of butter and it’s heaven! I learned the best burger recipes from my chef-idol, Ina Garten!
I LOVE 4th of July Bar-b-que’s!!!! <3
I love grilling steak! My favorite thing to do is rub a clove of garlic over both sides of the meat then grill it! It’s yum!
My favorite grilled item is grilled peaches. We drizzle them with a Jack Daniels and brown sugar glaze and then serve them with cinnamon ice cream!
My husband’s suculent chicken kabobs seasoned with lemon pepper!! Yummy!!
Does Grilled Cheese Sandwich count?? Ya see, I have no grill, so how perfect is this??? LOL!
Ah, the best thing I have had grilled was probably filet mignon. I am not sure how it was prepared/marinated, etc., but it was made at a friends house it was sooooooooooo fabulous!!!
Thanks for the chance! Really… I do need a grill, so here’s hoping for some good vibes headed my way!
As always, you’re such a gem!
Candi in Colorado
I LOVE my husband’s ribs on the smoker/grill….best ever.
My favorite are grilled lamb and veggie kabobs. The lamb is marinated in a yogurt sauce. Yum, yum!
I love twice baked potatoes, though the name doesn’t really fit if they’re grilled and not baked that 2nd time around, does it? Regardless, they’re delicious. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the comments to snag some grilling ideas. I plan on using my grill to the fullest this summer but haven’t moved much past the standards of burgers, chicken, corn on the cob, and these yummy not-baked-twice potatoes.
The best grilled thing I ever ate was your basic run of the mill hamburgers. What’s so special about that? They were special because it was a picinic with my hubby and both my boys. We were all there as a family and it was just so much fun! Something about family gatherings that just make the food taste sooo good!
I love grilled salmon or halibut on cedar planks. It is so good.
My favorite thing was a pre-marinated Chipotle Tritip. So good and savory. Mmm.
The best thing I ever ate grilled – probably pineapple and corn on the cob. They are yummy! Thanks for the contest!
My favorite thing on the grill is my hubby’s lemon peppercorn swordfish. MMmmmmmm.
My favorite grilled item is….grilled artichokes with olive oil and garlic. It is awesome!
The best think I have ever ate that is grilled would have to be chicken, pineapple, peppers, and onions on the kabob!! DEEELish!!!
I love to grill summer squash & zucchini. Yum! That’s such a cool looking grill!
My family is from Peru and so we have always had huge bbq’s with traditional peruvian grilled dishes. These are the best foods in my opinion. :)
Nothing beats a grilled burger! They’re the best:)
I love grilled Corn!!! =)
Grilled pineapple for sure! and Peaches! And chicken veggie skewers are so yummy! I love all things grilled!
The best grilled dish I ever tasted was citrus marinated chicken and pepper kabobs. They were out of this world :)
Favorite things are mushrooms, onions, and corn on the cob.
Nothing better than a nice, grilled steak!
I haven’t had grilled food in many years since we do not own a grill. My favorite grilled food would be teriyaki meat and corn on the cob.
Chicken grilled with Hawaiian Marinade and on the side grilled marinated vegetables in Balsamic Dressing!! What’s better than grilling!!
Every time we grill out, I have to have italian chicken! You just marinate the chicken in italian dressing for a little while before you grill it. It’s always moist and so delicious!
we grill everything. Veggies, meat, even make pizza on a pizza stone right on the grill! My favorite though would be marinated tritip!!!! I hope I win! I’ve been wanting one of these grills!
Our favorite grilled meal is marinated steaks with grilled marinated veggies (squash, mushrooms, onion, red and green bell peppers, and any other veggies I have on hand at the time).
We marinade the steak over night in EVOO, a splash of soy, splash of worcestershire sauce, citrus (orange, lemon, lime or grapefruit) slices, minced garlic, and whatever else catches my fancy.
The veggies we marinade for just about 2 hours in basically the same as above but typically add some crushed red pepper to it for a bit of a kick.
I’m so glad it was lunchtime when I saw this post or I’d be drooling right now! LOL

I love pizza grilled with lots of veggies on top of it.
I love grilled pork steaks with my mother-in-law’s homemade barbeque sauce. If she could bottle it I think she’d be rich!!
My family loves what we call Cowboys. Start with a piece of foil, butter it and then add hamburger, corn, mushrooms, cheese and sliced potatos. I top mine with a little garlic and salt and pepper. The kids love them because everyone gets their own little package of goodness on the grill.
My husband makes the best grilled steaks ever. Add in some grilled zuchinni and yellow squash and it’s the best meal EVER.
At a BBQ one year they had grilled corn on the cob and then they smothered it in mayo and parmesan cheese. Weird, but awesome!!!!

I think everything tastes better on the grill! I love grilling pineapple slices and putting brown sugar on top! I love packets of veggies with chicken in aluminum foil too. Man suddenly I am starving!
I just tried grilled peaches and they were DIVINE! My favorite new thing to grill is fish. I’m not a huge fish fan (well, I WASN’T) but due to some recent dietary changes, I find myself actually enjoying it! Grilled tilapia and halibut are on the menu for this week, topped with a light fruity salsa and a savory homemade salsa.
I LOVE grilled veggies. Potatoes, onions, squash, anything! Whatever we get from our CSA that week, I love grilling them all up with a bunch of delicious spices.
I love grilled corn on the cob!
I prepare Buffalo Shrimp like Buffalo Chicken Wings, but instead of deep-frying, I place the shrimp on the grill, then serve with celery and blue cheese dressing! Everyone luvs Buffalo Shrimp, on the grill!
EVERYTHING tastes better hot off the grill…Besides Turkey Burgers, BBQ Chicken, Potatoes, Asparagus, Hot Dogs and Shishkebabs…..Grilled Pizza of course…….oh yay!!!!!
I grill a lot, but the one grilled dinner I remember being SO good was some shrimp we did. That was over 14 years ago!
Grilled zuccini with olive oil! Tried it last year and I eat it every week now!
Love your blog!!
I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. Grilled sirloin burgers topped with Tillamook cheddar cheese, accompanied with grilled corn on the cob, and grilled summer squash seasoned with fresh chopped herbs and olive oil. Always a crowd pleaser!
it’s hard to narrow down the yummy grilled food’s i’ve had but one is grilled pineapple with brown sugar on top. my hubby does it, and I don’t know all that he puts on it, but it’s so good!
Grilled pineapple with caramel sauce! Yum!
Our favorite thing to grill in the summer is lean chicken breasts, slathered in my homemade bbq sauce, then sliced into 1″ chunks to put over a nice big salad. Throw on some grilled pineapple, and you have a wonderful summer meal! :)
