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…
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…
Chicken Tacos, I told Patti that I wanting chicken this week. Well she found it on sale and came home with a lot of chicken. I wanted to do something along the lines of soft chicken tacos. Patti got me a nice 6 pounder that I smoked in a Mole sauce with a few handfuls of peppers. Patti and I have set one night a…
Country Ribs Texas Style, we love ribs in any form. These are also known as country strips. They were thick and meaty with a bone in (Patti’s preference), but they also come boneless. Either way is just right seasoned with Briggs True Texas Seasoning and thickly basted with Briggs True Bourbon Bacon Barbeque Sauce and a “Kiss of Smoke”. So tender, and so Good!!!…
Not Your Momma’s Biscuits & Gravy, It’s cold and wet outside this week, so we are doing what I call comfort food. Biscuits and gravy or SOS. This is nothing like your momma’s. Ours is loaded with garlic, sweet onions and red pepper. Then served over hot buttered biscuits, piled high with French fries… topped with a healthy dose of Tabasco sauce.
Easy Smoked Potatoes Au Gratin because a friend of Patti’s wanted a recipe for scalloped potatoes with cheese. That’s what au Gratin potatoes are. She also wanted a recipe she could make a day ahead without the potatoes turning black. So, we cooked the potatoes first and layered them the next day into our creamy cheesy sauce. Then, we topped them with more cheese and…
Pecan Scotch Pie was born because pecan pie is Ken’s favorite. We already have a wonderful recipe for pecan pie with chocolate, so we wanted something different. Patti had an ‘aha” moment and remembered we had butterscotch chips from a recipe we apparently forgot all about. This pie turned out crunchy and creamy with an extra whisper of pecan smoke because we used Mountain Maple pellets in a wedgie for that “Kiss of Smoke”.
Stuffed Jalapeno Burger, we were in the mood for a BIG Meaty Burger and grill fries tonight. I started looking around the kitchen to see what I could find to make this big boy. A Burger was born, cheese, sweet onions, chili, sliced jalapenos, and Country Bobs Apple Chipotle Sauce. Think about it, what is a Chipotle? It’s a smoked Jalapeno. Perfect… These were…
Chile Relleno Fatty, Ken couldn’t wait to try our Raider Red Jalapeno Bacon. Anything that involves bacon and jalapenos is just right for him. This was fun and easy, too. We had some Raider Red pork sausage and our smoked cheese; Chile rellenos from the deli, Candied Jalapenos then seasoned it all with Briggs True Chili Mix seasoning then rolled it all up into…
Smoked Turkey Legs, we got a request from some friends who were having a big holiday dinner for their large family. As a special treat for the bigger kids they wanted lots of turkey legs because they were their favorite and wanted them all to have their own. If you have had them at the fair or Disneyland you know what a treat these are.…
Southwestern Chicken Skillet because we had friends visiting and they wanted something different made with chicken, cheese and bacon. Patti and I kicked this recipe around for about a week. Doing different skillets, pans, peppers and sauces. When we came to what we wanted to do I was a bit excited to “Get er Done”, thinking this was going to be good! Using 3…
We love Dump Chili and have been making it from scratch for over 45 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 up…
