Honey Mustard Tuna Steaks were a light dinner after lots of ribs and burgers. It was a quick and easy entrée using mostly ingredients we had on hand. Patti served it with a box of cheesy broccoli rice made according to package directions but added a handful of sliced green onions for color and a few extra shakes of Loubier All Purpose seasoning for another…
Uncle Bubba’s Cowboy Burger will make you shout, “Yee Haw”! We love BIG BURGERS and Uncle Bubba never lets us down. His Cowboy burger has a ½ pound of beef, Coby Jack cheese, a pile of crisp, smoky bacon and then top with pickles and French-fried onions. Nested in a bed of lettuce and tomato. All drizzled with his Blackened Ranch Sauce. Dang!!! He…
Cheeseburger Enchiladas because we love, love, love cheeseburgers. For Christmas this year Ken got a professional grade meat grinder. Patti found some chuck rolls on sale and we had fun making our own ground beef. It’s been cold here (for Ca.) and we wanted to make something a little heartier, plus Ken made us some of his awesome smoked cheese! Patti and I have…
Peppered Sirloin with Bacon Mushroom Sauce, It was our date night and we both agreed we wanted “hunk of cow” aka big, beefy taste that was quick and tasty. We have lots of recipes for Ken’s favorite steak: top sirloin. It was perfectly seasoned with Cattleman’s Grill Southwest Steakhouse Seasoning and coarse black pepper. Patti wanted to make it special enhancing the beef with a…
Smoky Chipotle Garlic Chicken was a perfect way to enjoy Ken’s Smoky Chipotle Garlic Sauce. It’s an extra easy to fix dinner using a whole “spatchcocked” chicken and Louisiana Grill’s Raspberry Chipotle Chicken Rub. Not many ingredients, but tons of flavor. Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green…
Pulled Pork Green Chili Pulled Pork Green Chili was Ken’s brainchild. He loves pulled pork and green chili. We had plenty of one and none of the other. We had some of his smoked pulled pork in the freezer, plus his smoked jalapeno sauce and lots of other goodies blended into an awesome Smoky Green Chili. We smoked our peppers and onions on our Bull…
Pulled Pork Breakfast Biscuit, we love nice fluffy warm, sweet and soft biscuits; with a kiss of pecan smoke they’re even better. Then, to make a “Pulled Pork Breakfast Biscuit” is just Biscuit Heaven. Truly a gift from the Biscuit Angels. Our Sawtooth Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker makes it so easy to do! Patti and I have set one night a week just for us.…
Smoked Beef Stroganoff Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme. Wood burning stove, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a…
Bacon Blue Meatloaf, our friend Roger mentioned meatloaf sandwiches which are one of Ken’s favorites. So, Patti got to work on a new recipe for one of our websites most looked at recipes. Knowing our love of all things bacon a neighbor gifted us with a big bag of already made and crumbled bacon. We didn’t know you could buy it that way. So,…
Aloha Pork Burgers Aloha Pork Burgers were a huge hit when Patti’s good buddy Harriett came for dinner. We wanted a big, juicy burger, but different. Ken had our favorite butcher slice a boneless pork loin into ¼ “slices. Our local oriental market had the sweet chili sauce that made a simple and quick marinade. To serve we stacked the smoky pork slices up on…
Uncle Bubba’s Country Ribs Texas Style. Kissed with his BBQ sauce, “Uncle Bubba’s Whiskey BBQ Sauce”, a delicious, easy and beautiful Texas style BBQ sauce. We love ribs in any form and this was a nice pile of ribs that didn’t last long. These are also known as country strips. They were thick and meaty with a bone in (Patti’s preference), but they also…
Cranberry Onion Pork Roast is a festive holiday recipe when you want something smaller than a whole ham. Some of Patti’s friends laugh at her because she actually liked canned cranberry sauce. But, she showed them that it’s great as a base for a sauce or glaze especially with some added garlic or made thinner with a little orange or cranberry juice. It’s not…
