Easy Smoky Chili & Corn Bread With the cooler weather here we’ve wanted to do a good pot of thick and hearty chili. I saw Brad Woods recipe for his and it got me to thinking tonight’s the night. I normally do chili from scratch, even grinding my own chili peppers. But, this sounded simple and good using canned beans and tomatoes for my base.…
Traditional Pulled Pork We’ve been craving some good pulled pork sammies and pork on sale was all it took. We made the traditional sandwiches with a nice North Carolina-style vinegar BBQ sauce. Then we did some like a good patty melt. All slow smoked with apple pellets, they were so good. We divided it into a few freezer bags for things like pulled pork pizza,…
Loaded Mashed Potatoes We love potatoes fixed all kinds of ways. Ken has never found a way he didn’t like. Being our Memphis Wood Fire Grill/Smoker can bake just as well as smoke and grill Patti came up with this recipe for a new way with baked potatoes full of all the goodies. We smoked them alongside the chicken we made and they picked up…
Reverse Sear Rib Eye The Louisiana Sidebox Cold Smoker puts an easy twist on “Reverse Sear” grilling. It is a clean addition to any of the LG and Country Smoker Series of Louisiana Grills/Smokers. It is very easy to set up and start your smoking. Just start the grill, set the damper until you get the smoke flow and temperature you are looking for. Too…
Chili Brats Casserole We wanted something hearty, quick and easy, plus nice and spicy for a chilly evening. It was a really busy day and we were having friends with kids on the way. Using our Pacific Living Outdoor Oven we can keep it warm until we’re all ready to eat because it keeps and holds the temperature so well. Everyone loved the crunchy tortilla…
Mango Curry Pork Chops Being our main ingredient has always been imagination, we wanted to try an unusual combination for simple pork chops. Ken loves the spice of curry and Patti prefers a bit of sweetness in her marinade. So, we got this idea using Louisiana’s Mango Magic Seasoning…with the added heat of curry. Slow smoking with the marinade worked deliciously. Patti and I have…
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…
