Pollo al mattone
I love to barbecue, it’s my American side claiming its culinary rights. Whenever I fire the coals and host a backyard cookout, I like to throw a lot on the grill, so besides the classic burgers and franks I usually fuse in some Italian grigliata mista (assortment of grilled meats done over hardwood coals) as well. This means I always have salsicce (sausage), spiedini (Italian kebabs), bistecche (beef steaks), and rosticciana (pork spare ribs) on the menu, and the unfailing chicken under the brick.
