Uncle Bubba’s Texas Ham! Uncle Bubba is always doing something on his GMG and he loves to do special recipes for the holiday season.

Easy Stuffed Leg of Lamb was easy because the lamb was boneless. Patti made stuffing starting with “Stove Top”. Plus, she added some herbs and veggies and used chicken stock instead of water. You can use whatever type of stuffing cubes you like. They’re all good. We got the lamb from Texas Steak Warehouse so we knew it would be tender and juicy! Patti and…

Pulled Pork Louisiana Style, pork butt went on sale here for .87 a pound. You know what that means. When you’re going to do a 10 hour smoke you might as well load up the grill.
