Tyler Florence Grills It Up Big Time for NASCAR

Wednesday May 20, 2009

This Memorial Day weekend, Chef Tyler Florence will be cooking over a record 1,320-ft grill at NASCAR's longest race, the Coca-Cola 600 at Lowe's Motor Speedway. Florence will be preparing a feast of hamburgers and hot dogs for fans there on race day (courtesy of Coca-Cola). He will get some help with the oval-shaped, quarter mile long grill from NASCAR stars Clint Bowyer, Bobby Labonte, Kyle Petty and racing legend Bobby Allison. The monster grill requires 7,000 pounds of Kingsford Charcoal.

Check out the recipe for Tyler Florence's Grilled Potato Salad.
