Pork Loin Chops with Creamy Mushroom Sauce, we found some nice pork loin chops. We had all the things we needed to make a creamy, delicious mushroom sauce and the addition of Chef of the Future Seasoning was just the perfect seasoning for the chops. Gave them a "Kiss of Smoke" then served with a creamy mushroom sauce and mashed potatoes…you’ll want to try…
Piggy Pops!!! Oh Man These are GOOD! I just wish we had thought of these when we were cooking at the Farmer’s Market. I know we would have sold out of these every week!!! Patti made a lemon pepper sauce that was an awesome “Dipping” sauce and was a great marinade. We took some chops, cut them in half and put them on lollipop sticks…
Pepper Crusted Rib Roast was Ken’s idea of a Father’s Day treat and our furry kids agreed. Patti ordered a 4-bone 8 ½ pound rib roast from Texas Steak Warehouse. So, we all knew it would be tender, juicy and delicious. We seasoned it with a thick pepper crust, and we served it with "Ken’s Chuckwagon Baked Beans". A celebration dinner that would be…
Big Beef Ribs go Tailgating!!! With things opening up it’s time to be thinking of camping and tailgating. We found some nice ribs and thought they would make a special camp dinner. Look at that smoke ring! These slabs of ribs are too big for 2 slabs to fit into the Green Mountain Davey Crockett tailgater. Problem solved by our Bull Racks; they can…
Fabulous Chicken Fajitas, Ken wanted fajitas and Patti had some chicken breasts that were a pound each a for our date night. We added all our favorite goodies. The red pepper chili powder is a pungent, hot chili powder with a strong bite and the flavor intensifies as it is cooked. I love the Southwestern flair it adds to all of your grilling. But,…
Desert Dust Ribs, big, beautiful ribs with an “Earthy” flavor and a "Kiss of Smoke" that will have you cleaning the bones. Amazing ribs in just 4 hours. Tender and almost falling off the bones. We have been wanting some ribs and baked beans. So, we thought we would do some for date night! My beans as always were great! We love these beans…
Cocoa Chile Rib Eye Steaks Reverse Seared, Our friend Tony was coming down for Memorial Day weekend and as always made a point of spending some time with us. Patti surprised us all when she pulled a big rib eye roast out of the freezer. I did a Reverse Sear on these 2 inch steaks with McCormick’s Cocoa Chile rub, A "Kiss of Smoke"…
Pepper Glazed Pork Roast, eating good on a budget!!! We cold smoked our sirloin roast in coffee smoke first. Then gave it a thick coating of black pepper and sealed them up in a bag and let them get “Happy” for a few days. What a treat! You can bypass the cold smoke if you don’t have the time and this will still be…
Maple Canadian Bacon, our new love is makin’ bacon. It’s very easy to do and better than any store-bought bacon we’ve ever had. That said there is no such thing as “Bad” bacon, just some is better than others. A beautiful, extra lean Maple Canadian bacon. There is something special about making your own bacon with your favorite flavor profile. It’s Canadian Bacon Candy…
Slow Smoked Santa Maria Roast Beef because there is nothing like the flavor of slow smoked beef seasoned with our new Santa Maria Rub (out soon). We smoked this 7 ½ pound roast for 9 hours for that “Kiss of Smoke” and a beautiful smoke ring. An awesome dinner for friends and the holidays. We will be enjoying shredded roast beef sandwiches and tacos this…
Tex Mex Big Beef Ribs have the smoky flavor of chipotle with “Big Beef”. That’s about as good as it can get!!! Texas BBQ is as simple as it can get, too. They go to the meat for flavor verses any rubs or sauces. Using mainly only salt, pepper and garlic for their seasoning and serve any sauce on the side. We added a…
Dove’s Chocolate Chipotle Tri Tip. How good does a Dove’s Chocolate anything sound? Dove’s Chocolate Chipotle Tri Tip was out of the ball park good. The Dove’s cocoa rub along with some chipotle chili powder and then a garlic pepper crust wasn’t like anything I have ever experienced! When the taste of beef layered with all the flavors of the grill is what you…
