Smokey Chipotle Sauce is a very versatile Smokey sauce with just a hint of heat. It’s great for any Southwestern or Mexican dish, also good as a chip dip. I am looking forward to using it as a chili starter. Chipotle peppers are “Smoked Jalapenos”. I love cooking with them just for that “Kiss of Smoke”, we added our “Smoked Garlic” to create a nice…
Peppered Bacon Pork Loin, this is one of our 1st. recipes, still one of my favorites.

Thank you for your years of support. This week Patti picked up a nice…

Patti’s best girlfriend, Peggy just loves our different stuffed jalapenos, especially our “rattlesnake eggs” and “armadillo eggs”. Over lunch last week she suggested, knowing how much Ken loves peanut butter, to just stuff some in a jalapeno. So, Nutapenos were born and it’s easier to say than peanut butter poppers. Wrapped with Zaycon Fresh bacon they…

Lemon Herb Chicken, we live in a community where everyone has fruit trees and this time of year we trade citrus with each other. Thanks, Rudy for all the lemons. We used bone in thighs because they were a great price, but you can do these just as well with bone in chicken breasts. We marinated them over night, it would work just as well…
