Smoked Turkey Legs, we got a request from some friends who were having a big holiday dinner for their large family. As a special treat for the bigger kids they wanted lots of turkey legs because they were their favorite and wanted them all to have their own. If you have had them at the fair or Disneyland you know what a treat these are.…
Southwestern Chicken Skillet because we had friends visiting and they wanted something different made with chicken, cheese and bacon. Patti and I kicked this recipe around for about a week. Doing different skillets, pans, peppers and sauces. When we came to what we wanted to do I was a bit excited to “Get er Done”, thinking this was going to be good! Using 3…
Sriracha Orange Wings are the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Friends of ours wanted wings with a special flavor and lots of them for a tailgating party. It’s super easy to make lots at one time with our Bull Rack System. Patti just loaded up 3 trays with 5 pounds of these jumbo wings and they were good to go. Ken loves Sriracha…
Hen Party Doins was a great hen party for Patti and some special lady friends. Nothing beats a ladies’ night than having our own personal chef aka Ken. The hens loved the hens. Rock Cornish Game hens that is. Seasoned to perfection with Chef of the Future Orange Ginger Pepper Seasoning and coated with our Grandville’s Mild BBQ Jam. It’s called jam because it’s…
Tangerine-Tamarind Brined and Glazed Turkey, we did this on our gasser. But you can do this on any grill and even in your oven.

Four and ½ hours later we had a Tangerine-Tamarind infused turkey that was moist and…

Our Golden Pile of Drummies was made with a drumstick/chicken wing hanger. Using a hanger you don’t have to turn the chicken, you get even cooking all around. We both love kitchen gadgets and this will be fun to use on chicken wings next time. They had a little sweet honey taste from our Butcher BBQ Honey rub and were perfectly seasoned with our…
Garlicky Spatchcock Hens, Garlic lovers heaven for our Date Night dinner. Patti and I both love garlic (good thing) and our Garlic Lovers Grilling Sauce is CRAZY GOOD. If you don’t like garlic don’t even think about this sauce, it is very garlicky to say the least! Garlic sweetens as it cooks and adds wonderful garlic flavor to whatever is on the grill. Game hens…

They were so good that I have already…
