Citrus Pepper Bacon Chicken Cheeseburgers because Ken loves cheeseburgers or anything with cheese and bacon. Patti wanted to make the burgers a little healthier and she loves chicken. These were super simple and full of flavor. A definite for our next camping or tailgating adventure. I think the Briggs Citrus Pepper Seasoning just set these on Fire! They were so good that I have already…
Scotch Eggs, A friend of ours showed us this little trick, and we have been working on it for three weeks now and made it into a work of art. These things are WONDERFUL; so far everyone who has tried one says “Oh My Gosh, these are great!!!” And being the Chef those words are music to my ears. We always sold out of…
Apple and Blue Cheese Summer Sausage is some of the best sausage I’ve ever made. I have to admit I had a little help from David and his Butcher BBQ new line of sausage seasonings “Wyld Seasoning”. I used his “Apple and Blue Cheese Summer Sausage” seasoning in this one and before we’re done, I’ll try the rest of the lineup... We used natural…
NY Strip & Shrimp we were planning on just throwing a NY Strip on the grill then I learned it was National Shrimp Day. So, Patti made up some skewers to go with our steaks. We did up some smoked garlic and onions in our Lodge personal skillets and grilled avocado to round things out. Patti and I have set one night a week…
Cranberry Apple Bacon Jam, I was wanting a stuffing for a Christmas pork loin. Not the Ho-Hum, same old, same old stuffing. But something different. I can say that Patti and I knocked it out of the park with this one! It is so good, but everything is better with bacon! Our bacon jam has a pound of bacon slow cooked with apples, smoked onions,…
Texas Sliders, Honey Bourbon Brisket, with spring coming and folks gearing up for Tailgating and camping we wanted to come up with something to “Knock Your Socks Off”. Well, we did it. What do you think about a Honey Bourbon Brisket slider? Thought we would go big with a Texas Slider. It’s rich, meaty and off the hook good. We took a 14 pound brisket…
Southwestern Beer Can Burgers, we have been seeing folks post their beer can burgers for the last few weeks, all of them looking good. We wanted to take it to the next level by adding a “Southwestern” twist to it. We started with the very best ground beef: Zaycon Fresh ground sirloin and blending that with some beef chorizo for 1 pound burgers with a…
Simple Pulled Pork with just 3 ingredients, pork butt, Butcher BBQ oil and our “Date Night Butt Rub”. Patti and I love pulled pork, we use it for all sorts of things besides “Pulled Pork Sandwiches”, think about pizza, burritos, enchiladas, tacos, chili, omelets or biscuits and gravy for example. We get lots of “How To” questions on how to make pulled pork. I…
Pulled Pork Tacos! We really enjoy pulled pork and all the things you can do with it. I was wanting some tacos and we had a “Mexican Themed” potluck coming up after Church. So, pulled pork sounded good. You can season it to go in any direction your taste buds are craving and at $1.39 a pound you can make a lot of it.…
BBQ Chuck Roast Sliders, we love the BIG BEEF flavor of a chuck roast with a "Kiss of Smoke". With game day and tailgating season coming up BBQ Chuck Roast Sliders sounds like a “Win Win” to us. This cook was fun because I got to use a 10-cent yard sale treasure, Grandma’s old roaster. Big beef flavor in a slider with smoked garlic,…
Lemon Pepper Brined Chicken was special treat, tender and juicy with the savory flavors from the tart and peppery brine with a “Kiss of Maple Smoke” from a “Wedgie”. Topped off with a Lemon Pepper finishing sauce. Great for dinner with friends. We Spatchcocked these, you can do yours any way you like, whole, halved or quartered. The brine is simple to make and…
Honey Mustard Country Ribs, sometimes when you do a recipe everything comes together just right. It’s better than just good! This is one of those recipes. Our Honey Mustard Country Ribs is one of those times. They were tender, juicy and full of flavor because we used our Date Night Doins seasonings and honey mixed with Briggs True Mustard Sauce. A Flavor EXPLOSION in…
