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…
Smoked Chuck Roast, a few weeks ago we did some Burnt Ends and Pieces, it’s been on our mind ever since. They were so good I had to make them again. Patti got me a nice “chuck roll” and I cut an 8 pound roast off of it. We put it in the Louisiana Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker for 5 hours along with some grill…
Zippy Jalapeno Burgers, Ken loves big beefy burgers with a spicy bite. So, Patti came up with Zippy Jalapeno Burgers with a southwestern flair. It was easy with canned, pickled jalapeno slices and our Chef of the Future Southwestern seasoning. This was a ½ pound burger topped with pepper jack cheese, a bacon square and drizzled with Jalapeno Green Salsa. It was a “Big…
Brisket Tacos, brisket was on sale this week. So, we picked up about 35 pounds of Big Beef Brisket! We thought we would step away from the traditional smoked brisket you see everyone doing. We wanted to show how you can do so much more with all that “Big Beef” that will have everybody coming back for a second helping. You can feed a…
Tex-Mex Shredded Brisket, we thought we would step away from the traditional smoked brisket you see everyone doing. We wanted to show how you can do so much more with that “Big Beef” flavor that will have everybody coming back for a second helping. We even came up with a “Tex-Mex Seasoning” and a sauce that you’ll love on many things all with a…
Mumbo Sauce, in my research of regional BBQ and Grilling Sauces in America, I discovered this quick and easy sauce from Washington, DC. Who would have guessed that they would have their own sauce! This is a simple sweet-and-sour sauce that is even good on a spoon! D.C. claims this sauce as their own, but it looks like it migrated from Chicago where it…
Uncle Bubba’s Taco Bowl. We did these on a camping trip, but they are great for tailgating or friends over for dinner. You can spice these up or tone them down as each bowl is individually put together. We went “South of the Border” with these. Note: You can do your “Shredded Beef” at home and bag it up for easy camping and tailgating…
