Now is the Ideal Time to Invest in Your Outdoor Kitchen
Sub-Zero | Wolf announces $1,750 rebate Outdoor Kitchen Promotion for Sub-Zero, Wolf and Asko Outdoor Products As the weather is starting to warm up and summer is on the horizon, it is the ideal time to invest in your outdoor kitchen with some exciting rebates. From March 1st, there are new rebates on Sub-Zero, Wolf and Outdoor products. CLICK HERE TO WATCH THIS WEEK'S VIDEO Outdoor Kitchens Can Finally Live up to the Name The earliest versions of an outdoor kitchen could hardly be classified as a kitchen. Most designs were simply an extension of a gas grill. When the grill surrendered mobility and was anchored to a natural gas connection, they were supplemented by side burners, surrounds and other accessories that were often indoor fixtures or appliances that had been modified for outdoor use. In recent years, there have been high-end appliance manufacturers such as Sub-Zero Wolf who have been producing durable versions of almost anything in an indoor kitchen for your outdoor kitchen. Today, you can equip your outdoor kitchen with icemakers, freezers, refrigerators, warming ovens, dishwashers and more. Grills have also become more elaborate with once extravagant features such as low heat smokers and pizza ovens becoming more readily available for your outdoor kitchen. This has created a more formal and defined area to ensure that your outdoor kitchen now lives up to the name. The Importance of the Right Grill A grill acts as a cornerstone for any outdoor kitchen. Fortunately, grills now offer the versatility -

Electrolux Twins
New Built-In Refrigerator IdeaOld Concept: Surprising New BenefitsElectrolux Twins at UAKCFor many years the folks at Frigidaire/Electrolux had been known for offering an All Refrigerator and an All Freezer. Selling them as a combination was not a new idea, but the concept was slow to catch on. However, this may be an example of an idea whose time has come. The current Electrolux Twins are part of the luxury collection of appliances in the Electrolux brand, and are being presented as a good choice for a built-in refrigerator/freezer.There is a lot to offer here:1. Full-size built-in refrigerator, and full size matching freezer (72" wide)While the products are mirror images of each other, and are clearly made to match, they are indeed separate and can be purchased that way if you just want an all refrigerator or an all freezer. The features are fully updated with LED lighting, slide out glass shelves, etc.There are trim kits (faux grills) available for both the top and bottom that are 72" wide, and visually tie the two units together. The doors are configured in the photo so that the refrigerator and the freezer each open in the center, just as you would expect on a traditional side-by-side refrigerator/freezer.2. Traditional compressor in the back.Standard built-in refrigerators have the compressor on the top requiring an 84" height. The Electrolux units have the compressor and machine compartment on the back in the bottom of the appliance, are easier to access and do not require the 84" height. -

Grilling Tri-Tip Steak/Roast
Tri-Tip Time in SoucalWith the weather turning warm, it's time to get out the grill and get ready for Tri-Tip. Whether you call it a steak or a roast, tri-tip has been popular in the central coast area of California since the 50's. Tri-Tip is a triangular cut from the bottom sirloin. Rich in flavor, low in fat, this cut has been typically ground and added to the hamburger, or cut into cubes for stew meat. Now, it is becoming popular as a roast for outdoor grilling or oven roasting. Most Tri-Tip cuts will run from 1.5 to 2.5 lbs, but could even go up to 4lbs. The disadvantage of Tri-Tip is that like a flank steak, it can be tough. That's why most Tri-Tip recipes call for seasoning and marinating.A basic rub consists of salt (kosher or sea salt), freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder. This is known as a Santa Maria rub. Santa Maria, California gets credit for popularizing Tri-Tip. Thanks guys!Optionally, you might add coriander, paprika, ground cayenne pepper, and oregano, or thyme. I prefer to use fewer ingredients rather than more. I'd use the basic rub and maybe add coriander and cayenne or other peppers to get a little more heat. Feel free to add and delete the options.Apply the rub, cover the roast and refrigerate for 3-5 hours. Remove and let cool for 30 minutes to get to room temperature. Place the roast on a grill at medium heat, and cook for approx. 30
