Had some charcoal and a few beers left over and that's just the makings for a July 6th cookout.

Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Place chicken on grill rack coated with cooking spray, and grill for 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is done.

No, that isn't chicken in the picture. In the above recipe substitute Pork Loin where it says chicken.
Cooking time approx (3) beers.

"H" practiced his whittling skills while dinner grilled. I was sidelined from this activity due to the above mentioned (3) beers
And as usual "Cider" layed around waiting for something interesting to happen.
