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…
Firehouse Stuffed Meatloaf, Winter weather, even in California, begs for meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Our friend Pete makes award winning sauces and rubs. One taste and you’ll know why. We also really like that salt is never the first ingredient. Of course, if you’re making this recipe for your local firehouse you might want to triple the recipe. Patti and I have set one…
Alabama White BBQ Sauce, We love all the flavors of southern BBQ and Alabama White BBQ Sauce is one of my favorites. Almost everyone has their own family recipe for this all purpose sauce. This one was my mother’s, a mayonnaise-based sauce, on the tangy side with a kiss of horseradish, and mustard. It’s a delicious, easy and beautiful sauce to have in your…
Chicken Tacos, I told Patti that I wanting chicken this week. Well she found it on sale and came home with a lot of chicken. I wanted to do something along the lines of soft chicken tacos. Patti got me a nice 6 pounder that I smoked in a Mole sauce with a few handfuls of peppers. Patti and I have set one night a…
All American Presidential Burger was made to honor our all American President who, like us, loves a great burger. We formed our ½ pound burgers from ground Bison and, of course, topped them with American cheese, onion rings and bacon. All with a “Kiss of Smoke” using our wedgie loaded with Bourbon wood pellets. So Good… Patti and I have set one night a…
Country Ribs Texas Style, we love ribs in any form. These are also known as country strips. They were thick and meaty with a bone in (Patti’s preference), but they also come boneless. Either way is just right seasoned with Briggs True Texas Seasoning and thickly basted with Briggs True Bourbon Bacon Barbeque Sauce and a “Kiss of Smoke”. So tender, and so Good!!!…
South of the Border Crustless Pizza! I love just about anything “South of the Border”!! Our crustless pizza was packed with a mound of Spicy Chorizo sausage, jalapenos, smoked garlic and smothered with our smoked Pepper Jack Cheese. Low carb and huge flavor. More than just good, it is a supper easy camp or tailgating dish to do on the Green Mountain Davey Crockett…
Smoky White Chicken Chili because Ken has been making chili for almost 40 years, but this is the first time with chicken. Patti found a great deal on boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it’s definitely chili weather. So, we came up with our own version of white chicken chili. Spicy enough for Ken and mild enough for Patti with or without sour cream. Plus,…
Our South of the Border Burnt Ends and Tips were a bit zippy. I nailed it! These were like a ZIPPY meat candy. Note: Ken’s idea of zippy is a true tongue scorcher. Depending on your heat level you may want to tone these down. Patti and Rat (our little dog) couldn't eat them. For me, off the hook and jam packed with all the…
Horsey Mustard Rib Roast was the perfect dinner for a special birthday party. This big boy was over 8 ½ lbs. of juicy, tender perfection. Patti made a Horsey Mustard Sauce with just a hint of fresh rosemary made even better with our own Smoked Garlic Sauce, Date Night Heat and Briggs True Texas Mustard Sauce and with a “Kiss of Smoke”. Patti and…
After a long week we wanted a simple date night dinner, but it had to be as good as it as easy. We cut some beautiful 2 inch boneless loin chops from a huge pork loin we got last week. Patti wrapped them with maple bacon, and seasoned them generously with Wyld Seasoning "Desert Dust" and off to the Green Mountain Grill for that "Kiss…
Reverse Seared Tomahawk Steaks for Date Night!!! These were so good and tender with a “Kiss of Smoke”. We let these hang out in the smoke at 150* (65c) for an hour before removing them and cranking up the heat! Then, about 12 minutes at 450* (232c) for these beautiful steaks. They were fork tender and bone gnawing good!!! We seasoned these with “Loubier…
