Spanish Tapas

LYU370 · Jul 10, 2022

Did you know there are a couple of throwdowns going on? It's true and if you cook the correct dish, you can enter the Summer Cookouts Throwdown as well as the International Fare Throwdown. The best part is you get to eat your food!

Had a couple friends over and did a Spanish Tapas party. At first I thought it would be a PITA with all the different dishes, but turned out to be a fun cook and homemade Sangria was flowing so that certainly helped. :becky:

MENU:
Gambas al Ajillo (Spanish Garlic Shrimp)
Pinchos Morunos (Spanish Pork Skewers)
Champinones Al Ajillo (Spanish Garlic Mushrooms)
Patatas Bravas (Spanish Roasted Potatoes With (Fierce) Tomato Sauce)
Pan Con Tomate (Spanish Crispy Bread and Tomato)

And Corn Riblets. I don't think it's Spanish Tapas, found it on a UK website listing Tapas dishes, but it sounded cool.

No idea what a Pork Ribeye Roast was, but it sounded like it would be tender and looked like it had some fat in it. :noidea:

Taters & corn "riblets" on the Big Joe indirect at 375.

Random grill shots...

Plated up with some Sangria, everyone grabbed a plate a pigged out. Never seen people eat food so fast before.

Thanks for looking.

Looks like he may have quartered the cobs. I just wonder how he did it without the cob rolling on him.

Awesome cook. I like the way your quartered the corn. Didn't see this in the OCD thread, but suspect some would prefer end pieces of vertically cut ears of corn. Yours should please anyone, though I would take a pass and eat more shrimp. Just looks fantastic.

Yep, quartered cobs, once they start cooking up they start to curl up. I guess an air fryer gives it the biggest curl. Google corn riblets.

Was a pain trying to cut through the cob and was careful the entire time not cut my fingers off.

Fun presentation, would I go through the trouble again, probably not. Maybe for a special occasion.
