Dinner on the MAN Stove...

Philip refers to our grill as "the man stove." My favorite part of this dinner was that Philip took it all outside and did it all on the grill (read: I did not have to cook.). The recipe was for baked teriyaki chicken and I have to say...it was much better baked than it was grilled. I don't know why. I just really prefered it baked. It was still a very good dinner though!
