Breakfast Burger Balls Folks love our Scotch eggs with a hard cooked egg wrapped in sausage and bacon. But, we got a request for beef instead of pork and they insisted we use Zaycon Fresh ground beef because they wanted the best. We would never consider anything else! The hard cooked eggs were wrapped in ½ lb. of Zaycon Fresh ground beef mixed with Chef…
Smoked Clod Roast We saw clod roast on sale this week. Never having done one, we wanted to give it a try. It is a lean cut of meat a little on the tough side. Low and slow is the way to go here. We did a garlic pepper crust and injected it with a 50/50 mix of Country Bob’s Sauce and cranberry juice. It…
Mom’s Favorite Stuffed Chicken To honor Ken’s beloved Mom this Mother’s Day Patti came up with this recipe for her favorite food: chicken.

A win-win of all natural, MSG and gluten free top quality meat. Ken butterflied the chicken and…
Guest Chef G's "LEMONY" LEMON BROWNIES" I rarely bake sweets, but I am a HUGE fan of super "lemony" pastries! So when I saw this recipe for Lemon Brownies, I simply had to try it. I was not disappointed. Fresh out of the oven, the lemony aroma was captivating. They are very light and moist, and just melt in your mouth. The best thing about…
Dove’s Chocolate Pork Medallions My friends Nate and Le Tonia are Dove Chocolatiers. Last week he sent me some of Dove’s BBQ seasoning, the Chocolate Fig Balsamic Vinaigrette, Sweet’N’Spicy Cocoa Rub and their Sweet’N’Smoky Chocolate BBQ Sauce. Patti and I both like our chocolate and Patti loves Dove’s high quality. So, we started thinking about this. My first thoughts were chocolate syrup on BBQ. Not…
Guest Chef CHEF G's PAN-SEARED DUCK BREAST People often steer clear of duck because it can be rather intimidating at first, but duck breasts are actually very easy to prepare. Now I have prepared some very luxurious dishes using Louisiana wild game ducks that I acquired from local hunters there, but many grocery stores and some butcher shops offer processed packaged duck breasts that are…
Radical Short Ribs Radical Short Ribs, we found some beef short ribs on sale and that was all we needed to make our mouth water. Patti picked up 3 pounds of them and the rest is delicious history. Thinking we would do a long braise with a bit of a Hawaiian twist with crushed pineapple and Dr. Pepper for the sweet, plus a little pecan…
Picnic “Fried” Chicken We love to go off into the woods for a romantic picnic. Of course, cold fried chicken and Patti’s famous potato salad is a must. Patti “fried” our chicken on our Louisiana Grill/Smoker because it cooked up crispy with the addition of a delicious smoky finish. She seasoned it just right with Swimmin’ in Smoke Chik Bait Seasoning. Colonel eat your heart…

Being the Pacific Living Outdoor Oven has a smoke box we can add extra smoky goodness to our ham dishes and all the great recipes for the leftovers. Patti loves casseroles using leftovers because she can add all kinds of veggies and different kinds of…
CHEF G's MIDNIGHT "STRUGGLE" PIZZA See the what had happened was...our car was in the shop for repairs, but we didn't have plans to go anywhere and figured we'd be okay for a couple of days...until late-night munchies creeped up, and $h!t got REAL! My fiancé looked in the fridge, and said in a very hungry voice, "There is nothing in here to eat!" Oh…

Ken cut it into three pieces and this is our first recipe with this hunk. The strong flavor of the blue cheese permeated the pork and the fresh spinach added color and hid a nice…
