   So as a Chef I do not cook at home much. But today I made Grilled Lamb Chops with roasted sweet potatoes and Grilled Asparagus.

   Marinaded for the Lamb, Balsamic Dijon Provencal
   1/3cup Extra Virgin olive oil
   5 Tbl. Balsamic Vinegar
   1 clove garlic, minced
   3 Tbl. fresh Lemon Juice
   2 Tbl. Each Sugar & Dijon-style Mustard
   4 tsp. Herbs de provence
   mix all ingredients in a bowl, Marinate lamb 4 hours or over night. I like Loin Chops for this.
   Grill until Desired doneness.

   For Sweet Potatoes. toss in olive oil with salt pepper and tyme. Roast at 350 in oven until tender
   For Asparagus.Double Skewer 5 or 6 together brush on olive oil salt and pepper and grill till tender.
   Enjoy with a nice Cellar 8 Cabernet.

   Finish of the night with your fav tobacco and pipe. Tonight it is Holiday Spirit 2008. I need to buy more of it almost out.

   Riptide that sounds great... Thanks for the recipe.

   I would have to pass on the Sweet Potatoes.
   I have had them a hundred different ways... by great cooks and bad.
   Thanks, but no thanks.

   However; I did like the taste of Blue Agave after the cooking process at the Sauza Tequila distillery.
   Tasted just like sweet potato casserole with marshmallows.

    A rack will work well with this. I know what you mean about the price of lamb it use to be cheap because no one in the states really ate it. Now a whole processed lamb is $2OO u.s.dollars.

    We love lamb in our house! One of our favorites is lamb ribs. Just salt/pepper grill them up and squeeze fresh limes over the lot of them!

    Hobie, you can place salmon on a cookie sheet. fillet steaks or whole fillet if you have it? The basic is just a thin layer of mayo on the top side. Bake in a 450 oven for 15 min-30 if you have a thicker pieces. You have to be the judge of how cooked you like it. The size of fish you are cooking will determine how long to cook.

    Variations? Add some lemon or lime, dill, green onions, wasabi to the mayo. I have even heard of adding lipton onion soup mix to mayo and using that. Not sure of the proportions for that though?

    I made the basic recipe for some super health food eating friends one time. They went crazy for it and could not figure out what the "white sauce" coating the top was but LOVED IT! LOL

    You can google mayo salmon and come up with some variations.

    Lomi lomi salmon is great also. Kind of like a salmon salsa you eat with crackers or chips.
