Mr Grill I was asked to do a review by Rizzi at Mr Grill ; http://www.mrgrillproducts.com/ . I think reviews are always fun and I try to do fair review. If I don’t like something it doesn’t get posted. Simple… I have had the Mr Grill grill brush for a few months now. It seems like he is always hanging around trying to get into…
Onion Bacon Burger Chipotle Cheese Topping How about a great burger packed with bacon and smothered with grilled onions and topped with a zesty Chipotle Cheese Sauce? Patti made up some burgers and mixed chopped bacon into them. Just added tons of that smoky bacon flavor. Tonight, to add a little more “special”, we made a little Chipotle Cheddar Cheese Sauce. Hamburger Heaven! Onion Bacon…
Smoked Salmon Patti loves smoked salmon, me not so much. When I buy it for her it’s about $7 for a ¼ pound. Crazy, so I found a nice filet and did some research on smoking fish. Smoking salmon is very easy to do in my Louisiana Grill cold smoker. I found that the brining process interesting to do also. We used Lumberjacks Sweet Wood…
Skillet Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookies Ken wanted dessert after dinner and being it was date night it had to made outside. Our Pacific Living Outdoor Oven did the job perfectly and what better than big, chocolate chunk cookies for two. Patti insisted on adding oatmeal to make them a bit healthier. Ken added ice cream because it’s ice cream. We baked them in our 6”…
Herbed Chevre Stuffed Chicken Breasts We made a new friend at the Murrieta Farmer’s Market, her name is Vivian of Drake Family Farms and she sells some of the very best quality goat cheese we’ve ever tasted. Patti was planning on making chicken breasts this week and the idea of stuffing them with some of their Herbs de Provence flavored goat cheese made it extra…
Thai Salmon over Spicy Fettuccine As a special gift Patti received Spicy Thai fettuccine noodles, so we had to think of a special way to serve them. Patti came up with an interesting Thai sauce and bought some fresh salmon to make a low fat, healthy and quick dinner. Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night.…
London Broil with Creamy Peppercorn Sauce Twice Baked Potato and a Garlic Skillet There is nothing like the rich beef flavor of a good London Broil. We know that this is a low cost cut of meat that folks tend to over think when trying to prepare. Patti and I love the juicy, robust flavor. After a hard day of work this is as quick…
Chick in Memphis Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Memphis Elite Wood Fire Grill/Smoker and with all of the features we rarely 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…
Double Sausage Deep Dish Pizza Ken wanted pizza…not just the usual take out, but a huge, meaty deep dish. This would be perfect for a family night, including teenagers, to share for their favorite game. We put hot Italian sausage in the sauce and added spinach to make it healthy (LOL), plus sliced Italian hot sauce on top. Of course, mild sausage would work fine,…
Pork Tenderloin with Rosy Rhubarb Sauce We got a few pounds of gorgeous fresh rhubarb from the Murrieta Farmer’s Market and wanted to do something interesting and different, but wanted to do something not pie or preserves…this time. Pork tenderloin is good and easy anytime, so this was a winning combination. Smoked with Lumberjack’s new “Paris-Bordeaux Rosemary” wood pellets, Paris-Bordeaux Rosemary has a savory resinous…
Oktoberfest Sausage and Potatoes The weather here is turning coolish; it got down to 70 degrees on the patio tonight. Patti and I had to put on sweaters, we almost froze to death. This is a hearty and easy recipe for backyard barbeques and tailgating. Ken thought it was great with his favorite beer; Patti had it with a good red wine. The apple cider…
Ground Pork Enchiladas Verde We were blessed to be given lots of fresh, beautiful, assorted peppers, cilantro and tomatoes from the Murrieta Farmer’s Market. The peppers weren’t hot but had lots and lots of flavor and looked so pretty with the different colors. Just for a change and that we’ve never seen it done before we used store bought already ground pork. Plus, it was…
