First off, may you have the happiest of birthdays, Lin!!!

That's a gorgeous grill! <says Wayne who is turning green>

FIrst meal? New recipes are always great to try, but my own preference
would be for something tried and true that you're used to making, just to
get the feel of the new grill. Actually, the first thing I'd cook on it
for myself would be burgers and brats. :-)
