Honey Orange Leg of Lamb was requested for a holiday dinner for Easter and Passover! But we’ll make this again and again because it was so good. Our boneless leg of lamb from Texas Steak Warehouse was all top-quality meat and no waste. Which was good because there wasn’t a crumb left. With a “Kiss of Fruitwood Smoke” with a wedgie. Patti and I…
Simple Reverse Seared Prime Rib, we love the “BIG Beef” flavor of prime rib. Patti found them on sale brought home a few nice prime rib roasts for me to smoke. I sure do love her. We thought over all the ways you can do a prime rib roast and we decided we would do a reverse sear, love them. This means that we’ll…
Bacon Cheese Garlic Bread, We were invited to a potluck. We offered to bring garlic bread.

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.…
Caveman Beef Ribs, good, meaty beef ribs are almost impossible to find. For years all I have ever seen are racks of bone with most of the meat trimmed away. We were out looking for beef short ribs and Juan Carlos the meat manager at the El Toro market showed us these. He cuts his riblets from this big slab of beef ribs. These…
Simple Rotisserie Smoked Turkey. We smoked a 16-pound turkey and I wanted to show just how easy it is do a turkey that everybody will be talking about for years. We used only 2 ingredients, “Duck Fat” as a binder and GMG’s Poultry Seasoning. That’s it! Only 10 minutes prep time, and that was just to rinse it off, mount it on the rotisserie…
Maple Brined Turkey, the Holidays are right around the corner! For us it means getting together with great friends and wonderful food. We brined this girl in Ken’s famous maple brine and then smoked it until it was done to perfection. This bird was delicious, tender and juicy with a “Kiss” of smoky maple in every bite. Patti and I have set one night…
Cowboy Queso we can imagine cowboys or “New York City” cowboys sitting around the campfire enjoying this meaty, cheesy queso on chips or whenever you like a really good dip/sauce on. We used some of our favorite smoked cheese in this, but you can use your favorites. We arranged all the ingredients in an aluminum pan. You can mix them altogether in any oven…
Uncle Bubbas Brandy Bacon Burger, a BIG ½ pound burger! Topped with a mound of Smoked Mozzarella cheese and then piled high with his “Brandy Bacon Jam"! Then served them on an onion bun.

Diablo Sliders, for our Super Bowl Tailgater party we wanted the “Slap your Momma Big Beef flavor”. So thought we would do some Diablo Sliders with the big beef flavor of chuck roast. There are tons of things you can do with it. So, with that in mind I am braising a chuck roast today. Bringing flavors from All Spice Café’s Chipotle Garlic Sauce…
Jammin Jalapeno Bacon Burger, a BIG half-pound burger seared on a Hot griddle, topped with Havarti & Pepper Jack cheese and a pile of our sweet and savory Jalapeno Bacon Jam, served on garlic Texas toast!!! Have I said that “I LOVE BIG BURGERS”? A “Hot” griddle sears a nice, caramelized crust onto your burger for a unique flavor. And I enjoy any chance…
