Bacon Cheese Garlic Bread, We were invited to a potluck. We offered to bring garlic bread. We thought we would test a new recipe we were working on. “Bacon Cheese Garlic Bread”, oh yeah we rocked this. This was quick, easy and ooey gooey great. Jam packed with crumbled bacon, two kinds of cheese and buttery garlic… There were no leftovers, darn. The…
Uncle Bubba's Brandy Bacon Jam. I can’t say it enough “Everything is Better with Bacon”! Our jam is a pound of bacon ends and pieces, slow cooked with onions, smoked garlic, and brandy in to a sweet and spicy burger topping. (Have you ever heard me say I LOVE BIG BURGERS!) Rich and savory, a great appetizer, topping on cheese and crackers,…
Pile O’ Ribs on the Tailgater, we both love ribs and tailgating! The problem is that rack of ribs take up a lot of space and tailgating grills tend to be on the small and portable side. I can triple the ribs on our little grill with a good rack. And that gave a lot of folks a big smile, they were tender and…
Tenderloin Steaks for Date Night, so tender we could cut them with a spoon. Prime Meats are the perfect way to relax for a fine meal after a long week. Their tenderloin steaks came in a two pack of 8 ozs. each. We complimented them with some Butcher BBQ Private Seasoning and after a few minutes on our grill we had a “prime” dinner.…
Traditional Argentinean Matambres, I have spent the last 2 months researching Argentinean and Gaucho cooking. Fascinating. Lots of interesting styles of cooking and sites most of which I can’t understand what they say. One thing I learned about the Matambre is that there is a traditional style and then from there it is more a free style, anything you can dream and we sure did.…
Simple Reverse Seared Prime Rib, we love the “BIG Beef” flavor of prime rib. Patti found them on sale brought home a few nice prime rib roasts for me to smoke. I sure do love her. We thought over all the ways you can do a prime rib roast and we decided we would do a reverse sear, love them. This means that we’ll…
Tropical Ginger Ham was as close as we’ll get to a tropical getaway for Christmas. The weather outside might be frightful, but the ginger twist to our ham is so delightful. And a “Kiss of Fruitwood Smoke”. This recipe can easily be done in the oven or any grill/smoker where you can control the heat! We’re looking forward to playing with our food with…
Maple Brined Turkey, the Holidays are right around the corner! For us it means getting together with great friends and wonderful food. We brined this girl in Ken’s famous maple brine and then smoked it until it was done to perfection. This bird was delicious, tender and juicy with a “Kiss” of smoky maple in every bite. Patti and I have set one night…
Easy Pulled Pork! Patti knows how much I enjoy pulled pork and all the things you can do with it. So, when she found some nice butts on sale, she brought 2 big ones home. Then, she took things a few steps farther and made me some pulled pork using just 4 ingredients: pork butt, “Butcher BBQ oil”, “Pork Injection” and “Bexten’s Best” signature…
Chipotle Orange Ribs, I have been experimenting with my Chipotle Orange BBQ sauce and now it’s very, very good. Good ribs really are easy to do and will make your friends think you are “The Grill Master”. We have had friends over a few times and served this on chicken and ribs that were finger licking wonderful. The sauce is so simple with only 4…
Apple Chipotle Glazed Ham Apple Chipotle Glazed Ham, just three ingredients. But, oh what great ingredients! We cut an 11lb. Zaycon Fresh ham in half. Then we made a glaze with just apple jelly and Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce in Apple Chipotle providing all the seasoning we needed for a delicious main course. Patti and I have set one night a week just for…
