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…
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…
Our North Carolina Style Vinegar BBQ Sauce, is our most requested recipe EVERY WEEK!!! North Carolina Style Vinegar BBQ Sauce, This may be one of the Best Carolina style sauces I have ever had. This is a VERY BOLD sauce and is MAGIC on Pulled Pork! I like to splash it on almost any pork and chicken dish. It’s also great as a mop…
Fiesta Chicken con Queso is a fiesta for your tastebuds. Just a little zippy and a whole lotta yum. It was easy, too, because we used prepackaged fajita veggies, southwestern cheese sauce from a jar and freshly made salsa fresca from our local supermarket. We stuffed it with shredded mozzarella cheese, but you can use any shredded cheese you like. And seasoned with Chef…
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,…
Smoky Minced Garlic we use a lot of garlic here. We like the smoky minced garlic when we want a bit of garlic and a "Kiss of Smoke" into our dish. The garlic is still raw and will sweeten as it cooks and brings a nice smoky flavor into anything you cook. Every month we cold smoke 3 or 4 pounds of garlic that…
Curried Chicken Breasts, Ken loves curry, any kind of curry. Patti always stocks up on different cuts of chicken when it’s on sale. Voila, a match made delicious. Patti served it with brown rice made with coconut milk instead of broth or water with a "Kiss of Smoke". Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night.…
Creamed Garlic Soup with Toasted Cheese Topping, we love garlic, just about every way it comes. I had been thinking of doing a smoked garlic soup for a few weeks now. Rich, creamy and a garlicky sweet treat. So, I thought I would make some for our special Christmas Eve dinner. This may have been a little rough on our dogs. Not having…
Pile O’ Ribs on the Tailgater, we both love ribs and tailgating! The problem is that rack of ribs take up a lot of space and tailgating grills tend to be on the small and portable side. I can triple the ribs on our little grill with a good rack. And that gave a lot of folks a big smile, they were tender and…
Tenderloin Steaks for Date Night, so tender we could cut them with a spoon. Prime Meats are the perfect way to relax for a fine meal after a long week. Their tenderloin steaks came in a two pack of 8 ozs. each. We complimented them with some Butcher BBQ Private Seasoning and after a few minutes on our grill we had a “prime” dinner.…
Chipotle Orange Ribs, I have been experimenting with my Chipotle Orange BBQ sauce and now it’s very, very good. Good ribs really are easy to do and will make your friends think you are “The Grill Master”. We have had friends over a few times and served this on chicken and ribs that were finger licking wonderful. The sauce is so simple with only 4…
Uncle Bubba’s Alabama Double Stack Bacon Cheeseburger. Hands down I LOVE BIG BURGERS!!! This BIG BURGER has everything I love on it with more than a half pound of beef, smoked cheddar cheese, a ton of thick sliced pepper bacon. Piled up on lettuce, tomatoes and a slab of sweet onion. Then, Uncle Bubba’s Alabama Sauce… All with a “Kiss of Smoke”. Pure Burger…
