Lemon Tarragon Shrimp and Scallops is just like Spring: light and bright. Patti used fresh lemon juice and plain Greek yogurt to give it a creamy sour cream-like flavor. It had a crunchy topping from crushed cheese crackers. Patti likes them because the crackers come in so many flavors. And with warmer weather just around the corner these only took about 10 minutes on…

St. Paddy’s Irish Nachos, we love nachos for appetizers, snacks and sometimes for dinner. Our friend Peggy Fairweather came up with the idea of combining nacho toppings over potatoes. She knows Ken is a meat & taters kind of guy. So, in honor of St. Patrick’s Day we made nachos with some of our Shredded Chuck Roast, French fries and a topping of food…

A great Christmas dinner will be…
Sweet & Smoky Corned Beef, we’re invited to St. Patrick’s Day pot luck. Of course, when asked what we should bring our friends always utter those three little words “bring barbequed meat”. Patti wanted to try to just smoke the corned beef instead of grilling it, using different sorts of seasoning. It was lean, a little sweet, a little savory and a lot of…

A 4-pound chuck roast, 5 different Chile peppers, onions and garlic for a 5 hour cook. All with a “Kiss of Smoke” from a wedgie loaded with GMG’s Texas Blend…
Chipotle Double Stack Burger, we love a good grilled burger and I am always pushing to explore new “Burger Frontiers”.

We get great tasting burgers and get to play with my toys, our Green Mountain grill and camera. It’s a Win Win…

Our favorite butcher, Jim, knows just how thick we like them and put in a pocket for us to handle all the savory stuffing.
