Smoked Creamed Spinach Stuffed Tomatoes, I wanted to do some smoked/grilled tomatoes with dinner and I asked Patti what she thought. This is what she came up with.

Lots of different textures and flavors…
Smoked Jalapeño Hot Sauce, I love a good Jalapeño Hot Sauce and have been thinking of how I can take it a step farther than store bought sauce. Being a child of the 60’s I’ll smoke anything.

Parmesan Crusted Chicken Drumsticks We’ve been getting requests for kid friendly tailgating food. Patti thought chicken drumsticks because they’re easy to prepare and come with a handle for the little ones.
