 The Great Girl Grill-Off
Jump back boys, the ladies aren’t just cookin’ in
the
kitchen anymore. That’s right, at last we’re
taking over
the grill…and we’re proving
that playing with fire isn’t
just a guy’s
game. Of course, now that women are all
over the grill,
the backyard BBQ is bound to take on a
whole new attitude.

Well, we said, “You go girls!!!” and you were off and grilling.
Not just steaks and burgers though… that’s all been done
(and besides we have to leave something for the dudes to do).
With women behind the grill, you never know what will be served
up next. So we fired up ours, tested out yours and found a winner.
Penny Pozgay of Williston, ND's Grilled
Tofu Salad was not only delicious and healthy, it came together
in a snap. Enjoy those hot summer nights outside of your kitchen
and give it a go on your grill. As for the guys, we’ll let them
come up with their own winner!
