Guacamole Bacon Burger on our Green Mountain Grills Davey Crockett will work great for our camping trip.

Pure Burger Porn. Patti and I have set one night a week just…
Uncle Bubba’s Texas Poppers, because we love poppers and Uncle Bubba knows poppers!

To finish them off he brushes them with his Uncle Bubba’s Whisky BBQ Sauce. All with a “Kiss of…
Hickory Smoked Sirloin Steak Sandwich, a trip down memory lane. This is the recipe that started it all in 2009.

What we talking about is…
Uncle Bubbas Texas Chili, a full, rich and savory chili. With a “Kiss of Smoke” and cocoa. The meat was so tender that Patti said, “You could cut it with a look”! Lord, women scare me to death!

“Poor Man’s” Burnt Ends are “Off The Hook”! Burnt ends are Meat Candy. Burnt Ends are normally made from Brisket and that can be very expensive. But, as Larry Wolfe showed us you can use chuck roast.

Cowboy Queso we can imagine cowboys or “New York City” cowboys sitting around the campfire enjoying this meaty, cheesy queso on chips or whenever you like a really good dip/sauce on. We used some of our favorite smoked cheese in this, but you can use your favorites. We arranged all the ingredients in an aluminum pan. You can mix them altogether in any oven…

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…
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.
