Sometimes we like to think well outside the box, but sometimes we want to go back into the box, through the lid on top, and eat the food we've loved since we were kids. BBQ Chicken? Check. Corn on the cob? Check. (But not your childhood corn on the cob; corn elote with cilantro and cheese.) Fresh zucchini grilled to perfection? Not our childhood, but a welcome addition here. Order this box, and all your flavor boxes will be checked.
Tip: How to get pro-looking crosshatch marks: Imagine the grill is a clock and place meat on grill so tip points at 10 o'clock. After 2-3 minutes, rotate so tip points at 2, and cook another 2-3 minutes. Repeat on second side.
