Pork Benedict Breakfast was everything you could want for breakfast!!! Texas toast, spinach, 2 eggs, bacon, a smoky grilled 2-inch pork chop all drizzled in “Patti’s Lite Hollandaise Sauce”. Served with fried potatoes and onions. These 2-inch chops were very tender and juicy! We even kissed them with a hint of coffee smoke. Great for camping or tailgating or any meal. Guests will oh…
Creamy Stuffed Pork Loin was stuffed with some of our favorite things: bacon and cheese. Our friend Kevin sent us his recipe and Patti loved the fact that you could vary the ingredients. Instead of onion-chive cream cheese you could use a fruit cream cheese like peach or honey. Instead of pepper bacon use maple. Because, as you know, we love to play with…
Venison Tenders, are one of our camp favorites. I have been doing these for 30 years and with hunting season around the corner I thought I would share this one. Venison tenders are very rich and tender with more than a hint of coarse ground black pepper. This is very easy to do and your buddies will always want you to be the camp…

Stuffed Pork Chops with Cranberry Stuffing, this is one of our very 1st recipes from Dec. 2009. I thought some of you may enjoy looking at this and seeing how we've grown. This was done on a Traeger. The only editing I've done here are with the photos and the closing... These were something special Patti dreamed. Literally she had a dream about these. We…
Marinated Pork Fajitas, Ken brought home some marinated pork chops. These are thin sliced by Juan Carlos from El Toro our favorite Mexican market. These are awesome, with a 5 minute sear, then slicing them thin and wrapping them in tortillas. The beauty of Fajitas is that there is no right or wrong way to do them. Do them how your family likes them……
Louisiana Bacon Cheese Dogs, we wanted to do something fun and different for a camping party. Something fun, easy and that included bacon, of course. The adults wanted hot links and the little ones wanted less spicy. So we did Louisiana hot links for the big kids with pepper jack cheese and Polish sausages and cheddar cheese for the little ones. We served them…
Apple Cheddar Hasselback Pork Loin, we were going camping and found out friends were going, too.

We had planned to throw some pork chops on our Green Mountain Tailgater, but this was a little more fancy, fun and appreciated. Being that apples…
Tailgating Babybacks, it’s time to be thinking about doing some camping and tailgating. We picked up some some very nice ribs and all the prep was done already. All we had to do was rub them down with our seasoning and put them on our Green Mountain Davy Crockett pellet grill for some smoke. Notice the perfect smoke ring, these ribs were tender, juicy and…
Citrus Pork Loin says tacos and we love pork loin. We took a 4 pound pork loin and put it in a Dutch oven with citrus marinade, onions, garlic and sliced tangerines. We slow smoked it for 7 hours. The pork just flaked apart with the aromas of oranges and a kiss of citrus flavor and was just screaming to be wrapped up in a…

Notice the nice smoke ring, these ribs were tender, juicy and…
Orange Ginger Pork may just put an end to Ken’s favorite take-out. We marinated the pork overnight in an orange ginger marinade, and then Patti made a sweet and zippy sauce as a glaze. Grilled to perfection on our Sawtooth Pellet Grill and served over white rice. This is a very easy recipe, your friends will love it… Patti and I have set one…
