Chipotle Chili Bowl, I have been going through “Chipotle Withdrawals” these last few weeks. I love the sweet smoky flavors of Chipotle on the grill. Everyone here (Patti) has been saying “NO More Chipotle for a while, It’s too hot”. I don’t understand this, chipotle is just a smoked jalapeno, and these are mild sweet peppers that are AWESOME on the grill. Well, I just…
Apple Chipotle Glazed Ham Apple Chipotle Glazed Ham, just three ingredients. But, oh what great ingredients! We cut an 11lb. Zaycon Fresh ham in half. Then we made a glaze with just apple jelly and Country Bob’s All Purpose Sauce in Apple Chipotle providing all the seasoning we needed for a delicious main course. Patti and I have set one night a week just for…
Last week we went up the mountain to do Tabasco Chipotle Stuffed Pork Chops with Dad. He being a big Tabasco fan had just received a case of goodies he had ordered from them. He gave me 4 different bottles of Tabasco sauce, their new mustard and a bottle topper. The topper is a basting brush that screws onto a Tabasco bottle… You can…
Smoky Chipotle Garlic Chicken was a perfect way to enjoy Ken’s Smoky Chipotle Garlic Sauce. It’s an extra easy to fix dinner using a whole “spatchcocked” chicken and Louisiana Grill’s Raspberry Chipotle Chicken Rub. Not many ingredients, but tons of flavor. Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green…
Ken loves chipotle and jerky, so we’re thinking a homemade Chipotle Beef Jerky seasoned just the way he likes it. We went down to see Juan Carlos about some ribs and he had some top round on sale that was cut to ¼ inch that looked perfect for jerky. 9 pounds and 7 hours later we have a pile of Chipotle Jerky, nice flavor not…
https://youtu.be/zh1Tm54Ww4M Dragon Eggs Dragon Eggs, we dream of things to grill and smoke. I know it’s crazy, but it’s something I really enjoy and I am always trying to come up with new tasty treats. This is what I dreamed up the other night. Five or six ways of doing this and here is how I ended up. Dragon Eggs, a smoky egg covered with…
https://youtu.be/yxUBYpAaLsU We have been seeing folks post their beer can burgers for the last few weeks, all of them looking good. We wanted to take it to the next level by adding a “Southwestern” twist to it. We started with the very best ground beef: Zaycon Fresh ground sirloin and blending that with some beef chorizo for 1 pound burgers with a nice blend of…
https://youtu.be/365LhFfII7k Video Chuck Wagon Beans Video Chuck Wagon Beans, if you love beef & beans this is a good pot of beans. In the spirit of an old west “cookie” they are made with whatever you have on hand. We did these on the Louisiana Wood Pellet Grill with a smoke tube packed with Rancher’s Mesquite for that “Kiss of Smoke”. Off the hook!!! Patti…
https://youtu.be/gaGrpzsMTcs Buffalo Dump Chili Video 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 35 years now with little or no measuring so guess you could call it…
https://youtu.be/MG3upmyGFX0 Dump Chili We love chili and have been making it from scratch for over 40 years. Over the years I have picked up many books in my research on the history from the very beginning. The oldest known chili recipe in print dates back to 1700 and it belonged to a Spanish priest. That said I wanted a good smoky chili to warm us…

Parmesan Crusted Chicken Drumsticks We’ve been getting requests for kid friendly tailgating food. Patti thought chicken drumsticks because they’re easy to prepare and come with a handle for the little ones. Fried chicken is always good, but Patti likes to Pacific Living Oven “fry” it so it’s a little healthier than soaking it in oil. To make it extra tasty we put lots of grated…
