Traditional Argentinean Matambres, I have spent the last 2 months researching Argentinean and Gaucho cooking. Fascinating. Lots of interesting styles of cooking and sites most of which I can’t understand what they say. One thing I learned about the Matambre is that there is a traditional style and then from there it is more a free style, anything you can dream and we sure did.…
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…
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…
Ginger Glazed Spatchcock Chicken Ginger Glazed Spatchcock Chicken, we love grilled chicken; and doing another Spatchcock Chicken was easy and flavorful. It was simple enough for a weeknight dinner and pretty enough for company. We served it with our twice baked potatoes and fresh steamed asparagus with a bit of butter. Spatchcock Chicken is simple and easy to do on the Green Mountain Wood Pellet…
Smoked Beef Stroganoff 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 Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme. Wood burning stove, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a…
Chicken Lasagna Florentine because Patti loves Italian food but can never find lasagna with a white sauce when she goes out to eat. Plus, with Thanksgiving so close we have lots and lots of turkey recipes, but not many for leftovers. This recipe was a keeper because she used lots of cheese and the spinach made it healthy. It was extra easy because you…
The Wedgie With the Wedgie you can add professionally smoked food to your menu with any gas grill. Now all gas grills become actual wood smoking grills for $29. The Wedgie is a 9”x 6”and 2” deep smoking wedge. It works best with wood pellets that you can burn 2 to 4 hours depending on how full you fill it… It’s a smoking fool that…

Crazy Good!!! This is an in your face burger or should I say it’s an “On Your Face” burger! Patti and I…
Grandville’s Duck Smoked then Grilled to Perfection Grandville’s Ginger Orange Duck, last week I had a friend call and ask “if he brought dinner, would we cook it?” What can you say to something like that: “What time will you be here?”… He talked with Patti and she gave him some things for sides to think about. Next day he shows up with two big…
Butter Pecan Stuffed Texas Pork Chop Butter Pecan Stuffed Texas Pork Chop, Ken wanted a stuffed pork chop…a big one. So Patti bought one aka bone-in pork loin roast at almost 6 lbs. Now that’s a pork chop! Being this was a manly sized pork chop power tools were required. Ken used a drill to make a whole for Patti’s butter pecan stuffing. Then, a…

Things like Mac and Cheese, Stuffed meatloaf and burgers are crazy good picking up the smoky flavors of the grill. Not even talking about sauces and dips. Cold smoking cheese is so easy to do. Today we used our Pacific…
