Simply Delicious Roasted Chicken It’s hot here and tonight we wanted something simple and without a lot of fuss, but delicious. What can be easier than a chicken on the Louisiana Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker? I think pecan smoke in just magic on chicken along with a splash of “Big Dick’s” BBQ sauce. It made for a nice evening.

Big ol’ Brisket 11 Hours from grate to plate. Patti brought me a 13 pound brisket and it was twice bigger than our dog Rat. This big brisket was so tender you didn’t even need teeth to eat it, and so juicy. Rat was with me the whole time making sure I got a good rub on it and had the smoke going right. We…
The Aloha Fatty We were thinking about do a fatty with a bit of a different twist to it. So we came up with the Aloha Fatty. This guy was packed with the smokey flavors of the sausage and bacon and blended with 2 kinds of cheese, garlic, red pepper, teriyaki, ginger, pineapple and Grandville’s Teriyaki BBQ sauce. We sliced it and served it with…
Smokin’ Hot Meatloaf Today has been a long week and comfort food was mandatory. For us that also means something on the barbecue. We both love meatloaf and it sounded like the perfect plan. Served with Patti’s garlic mashed potatoes, of course. We picked up some nice sourdough bread, and meatloaf sandwiches will be on for tomorrow’s lunch. Ken thinks that’s the best reason to…
Potluck Cheeseburger Mac We were invited to a potluck at our community center and asked what we should bring. The resounding vote was: meat! Spending the afternoon with our friends and neighbors is always fun and we wanted to do something everyone would love. Zaycon Fresh to the rescue. We mixed lots of their super lean, top quality ground beef with sharp cheddar cheese and…
Lemon Ginger Chicken Strips Ken wanted teriyaki chicken strips, Patti promised to do it better, and she did, without all the sodium of bottled teriyaki sauce. She had all the help she needed with Zaycon Fresh chicken breasts (this one chicken breast was over 2lbs.) cut into strips, and a marinade including Big Dick’s “Big Kahuna” Seasoning and Country Bob’s Honey Habanero All Purpose Sauce.…

South of the Border Fatty We had 4 couples and a few stray friends from our Church over for dinner. I had it all planned out. We would do 8 styles of ribs, plated real nice with a little card that explained what kind of rub and the style I was trying to create. Well, that didn’t work. We had so many ribs that I…
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…
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…
Big Beefy Wet Burritos We had a silly thought of going out to dinner for Mexican food. Why ever would we do that when we do it so much more to our taste! Using our Zaycon Fresh ground beef we knew we’d make the best extra lean, meaty, top quality big beefy burritos. Filled with all the goodies we love including the carne asada seasoning…
