Machaca Noche De Enamorados is beef slow cooked in Mexican seasoning that you then shred for the most delicious tacos, burritos or enchiladas. Our Machaca Noche De Enamorados is packed with lots of different flavors. None that really stand out, but a nice blend of coffee, cinnamon, cocoa and chili that really comes together and gets all happy. It’s a long cook, but it's…
Tailgating Tri Tip Tex-Mex Style is taking tailgating to a higher level. For us tailgating on our Green Mountain Grill/Smoker isn’t always just hot dogs and burgers. We love steak and taters so why not when we go camping and tailgating! We did a reverse sear on a chipotle rubbed Tri Tip. Served with grilled peppers and onions with a pile of taters. Then,…
Rib Eye Steaks on the Gasser are delicious on the Monument Gas Grill. The Monument Grill has so many features it makes grilling a breeze and the results are monumental! These were really simple. We seasoned them with a little Montreal then onto 500* (260*) SIZZLIN’ Grill Grates for 5 minutes per side with a quarter turn at 2 ½ minutes. Flip at…
Buffalo Onions, there is no one way to do them and they are super easy to do. They can be a different grilling adventure every time you make them! Our Buffalo Sauce recipe is better than most, on the mild side but packed with flavor. Easy to zip it up but as is it was a bit zippy for Patti. The only thing that…
Buffalo Dump Chili because we’ve been in the mood for great Chili. So, I thought I would make a dump chili using buffalo chunks that we slow smoked in Mesquite. This would be an awesome camping or tailgating recipe, too. I have been making chili for over 45 years now with little or no measuring so guess you could call it a dump Chili. In…
Smokey Espresso Ribs are so dang good!!! You don’t need Memorial Day to make memorable, fun to eat ribs. We ordered some amazing ribs from Texas Steak Warehouse because they have baby back ribs that are lots more meat than bones. Big, meaty ribs in just 3 ½ hours with a “Kiss of Smoke” and so tender that you don’t need teeth. We slathered them…
Chipotle Bacon Bombs are a good meaty snack or appetizer for parties or tailgating. A great start for anything we come up with. How about Chipotle Bacon Bombs on a Stick? We let our “Crash Test Dummies” try these out and they were a huge hit. There were no survivors…and no need for the main course. We all could have just eaten these for hours.
Cinco de Mayo Chicken Burger. Tender chicken breast that’s wrapped with a slice of thick cut pepper bacon. Then, a “Kiss of Smoke’, fresh lettuce, tomato and red sweet onion. Topped with Guacamole and Queso sauce with Hatch Chilies. Did I say that “I LOVE BIG BURGERS”? Last week we ordered some tamales from Texas Lone Star Tamales. (Patti loves the chocolate tamales when I…
Simple Sirloin on your gasser with just “A Kiss of Smoke”. Sirloin is one of our favorite cuts of meat. Big Beef flavor and very tender. These 16 oz. beauties were everything you would want in a good steak! Did these Hot and Fast on the gas grill with a Wedgie for a “Kiss of Smoke”. 15 minutes and it’s on your plate!!! Looking forward…
Buffalo Bill Burger, I LOVE BIG BURGERS! This is a ½ pound of lean ground Bison topped with a crisp bacon wrapped onion ring filled with white queso (cheese) sauce and drizzled with our Smokey Bourbon Bacon KC BBQ Sauce to kick the flavor up even more. Grilled with a “Kiss of Smoke”. Patti and I have set one night a week just for…
The Texas Two Step, We were cooking at Craft Brewery, Lake Elsinore a few weeks ago and ran out of hamburger buns. I told the boys that I had Texas toast if they wanted to try a burger on that. To make a long story short we blazed through 2 loaves of toast. I think they liked it a bit… So, I got to…
Chuckwagon Baked Beans with 3 different beans. We love “Ken’s Famous Baked Beans” (Ours). I have been working on this recipe for over thirty years and they are the best. But our Chuckwagon Baked Beans rattle the wagon! They are good both hot or cold! I saw where someone made a 3 bean baked beans using butter beans, great northern beans and pork ‘n…
