Seasoned, round sirloin tip steak makes for amazing grilling, especially when you add a potato, and enhancements on the grill to accompany the beer, such as  tomatillos, onion and a jalapeno pepper.  Steak, potato and salsa verde anyone...?

Photo:  Before I fire up the grill, I like to get everything ready, as it's easier, as grilling time tends to be fast paced.  

Tonight's dinner is seasoned, round sirloin tip steak, rubbed with Pappy's Blue Rub and marinated with Valentina Mexican Hot Sauce.  Between rubbing with Pappy's and marinating with Valentina, how can you miss?

It's Saturday evening, March 08, 2025 - Daylight Savings Time Change - and I'm ready to enjoy a great dinner on the grill.  As far as the time... it can wait as great grilling happens no matter what the time is.

Photo:  I'm getting my Weber  "Smokey Joe" going using a chimney starter.  The chimney starter makes good use of advertisements I receive as "junk mail," and doesn't use any lighter fluid... so there is no chance of lighter fluid taste when it comes to dining.  

As an added bonus, I'm told the "Green Guys" like this, but I'm not a socialist, so I wouldn't know about that.

Photo:  I'm a happy guy, as I lift the lid to my "Smokey Joe" grill to show all of the goodness that I'm grilling on this Saturday afternoon.

Photo:  Steak, potato, tomatillos, onion and a jalapeno pepper make for great grilling.  Placer County oak wood makes for the perfect fuel for grilling, as it grows everywhere, and all I have to do is pick it up, bring it home, cut it to size and enjoy for grilling.

The steak was marinated and basted with Valenentina Mexican Hot Sauce, which is my go-to sauce of choice.  I simply love it and the price is right.

Photo:  Steak, tomatillos and more are grilling, and are ready to enjoy for tonight's dinner!

Photo:  Grilled beef round sirloin tip steak, potatoes, tomatillos, onion, a jalapeno pepper and a lot more make for a delicious dinner on this Saturday evening.  A fresh avocado really made things great.

I used ketchup, mixed with Valentino Mexican Hot Sauce to make a dip for the potatoes and the meat.  Like the "old school" diner that I am, I used ground pepper, ground from pepper corns for seasoning, along with sea salt.

Naturally, I chopped the pepper, onion and tomatillo into slices, added sea salt and made salsa verde...  The sliced fresh avocado simply added a delicious side to tonight's dinner!

What better way to enjoy a Saturday evening with a great dinner?  Steak, potatoes, salsa Verde and more... Roseville, CA.
