Dolphins Cookouts 2013

[Dave Gray]

A group of friends and I cook out for each Dolphins game (where we are all home).  We take turns planning, buying, and preparing a meal in the theme of the opposing team.

Week 1 was Cleveland:
On the menu, Polish Boys -- kielbasa sausage cooked, then dropped in the fryer quickly to crisp the skin.  This is put on a bun and topped with french fries, cole slaw, and BBQ (or hot) sauce.



Thoughts: The flavors were good, which surprised me a little bit.  The coleslaw added a nice crunch and the fries added a nice texture, as well.  The BBQ didn't overpower like I would've thought.  If I were to do it again, I would choose different buns.  Our were a little bit "crusty", rather than a softer roll.  Also, the buns were too long for the kielbasa, leaving about a bite of bread only on each end.

Dave, I for one enjoy your updates on these weekly cookouts. Keep them coming. I would have never dreamed of this dish on my own.

I looked at some of the Indianapolis stuff, just to see what you could make, and I wonder what you guys will come up with.

^^ I wasn't going to say it, but that's what I saw as well.  Also something called Sweet Cream Pie, which sounds amazing.

Indianapolis, though I'm not the one cooking this week, will likely be breaded pork tenderloin (perhaps a sandwich, perhaps not), with sweet onion pie.  (It's kind of like quiche, that has cheese, bacon, and onions baked into a pastry.)

Last year for Indy, we did pork tenderloin sandwiches with ranch dressing, but it was a different person in charge, so we'll see...  I'll keep updating.

Maybe for the Atlanta game, you could do either Georgia style BBQ ribs or shrimp and grits, with peach cobbler for dessert.

shrimp and grits is more of a south carolina thing in origin rather than a georgia thing

That looks damn good Dave!!
