Hickory Smoked Sirloin Steak Sandwich, a trip down memory lane. This is the recipe that started it all in 2009. Five cameras ago and lot's lights, Patti has lost her dinning room, it is now a photo studio. You can see how we've grown!!! By now some of you have heard us refer to “Love the Second Time Around”. What we talking about is…
Uncle Bubbas Texas Chili, a full, rich and savory chili. With a “Kiss of Smoke” and cocoa. The meat was so tender that Patti said, “You could cut it with a look”! Lord, women scare me to death! Uncle Bubba took his “Smoke Daddy Cold Smoke Generator” with “mesquite” pellets and smoked the seasoned beef for 2 hours, then a 5 hour cook the…
Swiss Onion Stuffed Pork Chops, we love how versatile pork chops are. We cut these about 3 inches thick just for stuffing. We gave these a “Kiss of Smoke”. This is a simple recipe that looks like you have been cooking all day. Great for family and friends and a big hit camping and tailgating. We get a whole pork loin every month just…
“Poor Man’s” Burnt Ends are “Off The Hook”! Burnt ends are Meat Candy. Burnt Ends are normally made from Brisket and that can be very expensive. But, as Larry Wolfe showed us you can use chuck roast. Patti got me an 8 pound Chuckie, that’s a lot of good meat for the smoker. Patti and I have set one night a week just for…
Citrus Pepper Bacon Chicken Cheeseburgers because Ken loves cheeseburgers or anything with cheese and bacon. Patti wanted to make the burgers a little healthier and she loves chicken. These were super simple and full of flavor. A definite for our next camping or tailgating adventure. I think the Briggs Citrus Pepper Seasoning just set these on Fire! They were so good that I have already…
Scotch Eggs, A friend of ours showed us this little trick, and we have been working on it for three weeks now and made it into a work of art. These things are WONDERFUL; so far everyone who has tried one says “Oh My Gosh, these are great!!!” And being the Chef those words are music to my ears. We always sold out of…
Apple and Blue Cheese Summer Sausage is some of the best sausage I’ve ever made. I have to admit I had a little help from David and his Butcher BBQ new line of sausage seasonings “Wyld Seasoning”. I used his “Apple and Blue Cheese Summer Sausage” seasoning in this one and before we’re done, I’ll try the rest of the lineup... We used natural…
Cranberry Apple Bacon Jam, I was wanting a stuffing for a Christmas pork loin. Not the Ho-Hum, same old, same old stuffing. But something different. I can say that Patti and I knocked it out of the park with this one! It is so good, but everything is better with bacon! Our bacon jam has a pound of bacon slow cooked with apples, smoked onions,…
Cowboy Queso we can imagine cowboys or “New York City” cowboys sitting around the campfire enjoying this meaty, cheesy queso on chips or whenever you like a really good dip/sauce on. We used some of our favorite smoked cheese in this, but you can use your favorites. We arranged all the ingredients in an aluminum pan. You can mix them altogether in any oven…
Pulled Pork Tacos! We really enjoy pulled pork and all the things you can do with it. I was wanting some tacos and we had a “Mexican Themed” potluck coming up after Church. So, pulled pork sounded good. You can season it to go in any direction your taste buds are craving and at $1.39 a pound you can make a lot of it.…
BBQ Chuck Roast Sliders, we love the BIG BEEF flavor of a chuck roast with a "Kiss of Smoke". With game day and tailgating season coming up BBQ Chuck Roast Sliders sounds like a “Win Win” to us. This cook was fun because I got to use a 10-cent yard sale treasure, Grandma’s old roaster. Big beef flavor in a slider with smoked garlic,…
Old School Pork Spareribs! If you are ever lucky enough to visit a “Real Old School” BBQ shack you will notice that they do the whole rack of spareribs. They do minimal trimming and you end up with bigger meatier ribs. You waste a lot of good meat when you cut these down into “Saint Louis” style ribs. Just cut the chime bone off,…
