Tailgating Tri Tip Tex-Mex Style is taking tailgating to a higher level. For us tailgating on our Green Mountain Grill/Smoker isn’t always just hot dogs and burgers. We love steak and taters so why not when we go camping and tailgating! We did a reverse sear on a chipotle rubbed Tri Tip. Served with grilled peppers and onions with a pile of taters. Then,…
Bacon Bourbon Beanie Wienies adds a little distinction to a simple classic that’s loved by kids of all ages. We used the best wienies we could find: Raider Red Beef Franks. Everybody loves Ken’s baked beans; after all he’s been working on the recipe for over thirty years. The difference with these is we added a whole bottle of Briggs True Bourbon Bacon BBQ…
Tailgater Shredded Beef Tacos Tailgater Shredded Beef Tacos, friends of ours are going to the “big game”. They love football and their perfect to go grill for tailgating and camp cooking is the Green Mountain Grill Davy Crockett. It smokes and grills great and the handles become the legs. Being Ken made his awesome 16lb. chuck roast they wanted instructions to make simple tacos that…
Uncle Bubba's Brandy Peppercorn Glaze is another one of his delicious sauce/glazes. super simple and beautiful glaze. A Kiss of Brandy, smoked garlic with a hint of black pepper in a glaze made with honey. You’ll love this one! Remembering how my grandfather used to make this: a bit spicy and sweet that’s great on any pork or chicken. Patti and I have set…
WoW!!! Our Ultimate Biscuit and Gravy Breakfast Bake made it into Green Mountains Cook Book! We love biscuits and gravy, and I am always thinking how to make something better. I like to pile a stack of french fries on my biscuits and smother then with gravy. You just can’t do better than that. Patti and I have been thinking about a holiday breakfast picking…
Chipotle Pepper Brined Roast Beef packed with tons of BIG BEEF flavor. We took a 7 pound beef shoulder roast and brined it for two days in our Chipotle Pepper brine. Big Beef Roast- Texas Style. We love “Big Beef” and today we took it a few steps farther with 2 days in a Chipotle/Pepper brine and smoked it for 5½ hours in a…
Garlicky Spatchcock Hens, Garlic lovers heaven for our Date Night dinner. Patti and I both love garlic (good thing) and our Garlic Lovers Grilling Sauce is CRAZY GOOD. If you don’t like garlic don’t even think about this sauce, it is very garlicky to say the least! Garlic sweetens as it cooks and adds wonderful garlic flavor to whatever is on the grill. Game hens…
Paw Dads Alabama White BBQ Sauce is one of my favorite sauces. Almost everyone has their own family recipe for this all-purpose sauce. This is a mayonnaise-based sauce, on the tangy side with a kiss of horseradish, and smoked garlic. This one was my grandfather’s recipe; we have posted my mothers and uncles versions also. I call them “The Same, But Different” … (I’ll…
Hasselback Potatoes, we love these sliced, baked potatoes with cheese and bacon. We bake the potatoes and cool them ahead of time so they’re easy to quickly prepare. These are fancy enough for special dinners and convenient enough to mostly prepare the night before. They’re a different and delicious version of a twice baked potato. You can use any flavor of cheese. This time…
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…
Mumbo Sauce, in my research of regional BBQ and Grilling Sauces in America, I discovered this quick and easy sauce from Washington, DC. Who would have guessed that they would have their own sauce! This is a simple sweet-and-sour sauce that is even good on a spoon! D.C. claims this sauce as their own, but it looks like it migrated from Chicago where it…
