With the record warm temps we experienced a few weeks back in Minnesota, grilling was definitely a must do… Too bad it’ not very nice out today! The weather man says it might even snow again tonight! Yuk! So I prepared him his meal on the barbeque and served them with these terrific fresh green beans herunterladen.
