Chad Milam is one of the grilling experts in the Milam family. With three hungry kids to feed, he grills several times a week and is constantly searching for the simplest and most delicious ways to serve a meal that everyone will enjoy. When he’s not preparing outside skirt steak with a homemade chimichurri marinade, he opts for Picanha smothered in a flavorful garlic butter spread. This dish is not only easy and quick to make, but also provides an ample amount of meat for their family of five. To simplify things further, Chad often picks up five twice-baked potatoes from the Milam’s deli department to enjoy alongside the tender and indulgent meat.
