SPIEDINI

Steps:

• 1. First, cut the meat to about 4x6" or rectangular shaped pieces. If the meat is about 1/4" thick, you can pound it between wax paper or plastic to tenderize and make it thinner. Then coat each piece with oil on both sides, pile onto a large plate and set aside. Mix the Italian bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese together in a large wide bowl and set aside.
• 2. Second, chop the tomato, place in a bowl and set aside. Chop the onion, place in a bowl and set aside. Have the can of grated Romano set aside with the tomato and onion.
• 3. Next, dredge each piece of meat in the bread crumb mixture on both sides and pile aside onto a large plate.
• 4. Then, set up assembly line style: Take one piece of meat, put a teaspoon of tomato, onion and Romano at the larger end of the meat, fold in sides and roll up into "small meat roll". Pack side by side into a large cookie sheet or large glass rectangle baking dish. Place one bay leaf in between each roll.
• 5. Once the meat rolls are all packed into the baking dish, sprinkle across the tops with salt and pepper to your taste.

CALABRIAN SPIEDINI

Steps:

• Season the pork well with a good amount of black pepper and grey salt. Mince the garlic and then, sprinkle with salt to help the mashing process. Using the side of a knife, mash it into a paste (this process is helped along if you sprinkle the garlic with a little salt to help break it up). The mashed garlic flavor will spread throughout the sausage more easily than minced garlic. Add the garlic to the sausage, then add the California chili powder (this is a sweet chili that will give the sausage a strong red color). Add the chili flakes, beer, and fennel seeds and mix well. Cover sausage in a bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Chef's note: if you'd like to test pork sausage for seasoning, fry a little in a small pan with some olive oil before tasting. Remember, you can always add more seasoning, but you can never take it away!
• To form spiedini:
• Preheat a grill.
• Just before your cookout, soak 12-inch wooden skewers in water for 1 hour so they won't catch on fire when you place them on the grill. Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Form the sausage into baseball sized meatballs and place on the cookie sheet. To form the spiedini, flatten the balls into patties, place 2 skewers in the middle of a sausage patty, then wrap the patty firmly around the skewer. Wrap the spiedini in foil that you will use to bring them to the grill.
• To Grill spiedini:
• Place spiedini on the cooler part of the coals or on a medium grill. Drizzle with olive oil. Grill for about 10 minutes on each side, until well cooked.

VEAL SPIEDINI

Steps:

• Mix about 1 cup of the grated cheese with the breadcrumbs. Lay out your sliced veal. Neaten the edges if they are too rough. Depending on the size of your scaloppini you may want to ½ them. Rub lightly with a garlic clove. A little pepper and salt*. Place one slice of cheese on top, then a slice of Pancetta and then another slice of Mozzarella. Place a thin layer of bread crumb mixture -appox a 1-2 T depending on size of cutlets. Smooth into thin layer. Sprinkle some of the chopped Parsley over. Gently roll into small logs making sure that the end flap is meat touching meat. I find it easier to lightly coat them in EVOO and then roll them in the bread crumbs at this point. Then after about 20min I slice them into pinwheels about 1.5 inches thick. I then skewer them about 4-5 per skewer (if using wood pre-soak skewers). --OOOO-Skewer them after laying the pinwheels flat. Then I lightly oil the cut sides and dip back into bread crumbs. Let set up 20 min. If making ahead they can be wrapped tightly and placed in frig up to a day ahead. Over a med hot fire grill them about 3 min per side (4). Let rest about 5min before serving. Drizzle a little EVOO over each. Sprinkle some grated cheese over top. Squeeze ½ lemon over each. Garnish with Chopped Parsley and serve.
