Green with Envy Chili Verde, Ken has been a chili cooking expert for well over thirty years! We usually make it red and hot. But, we were craving a green chili with the heat of Serrano, red pepper flakes and jalapeno peppers and the tangy goodness of lots of tomatillos. Of course, we added plenty of fresh garlic. Pork sirloin made the meat especially…
Poblano Stuffed Chicken, we love Mexican style food and anything covered with enchilada sauce and cheese, Poblano Stuffed Chicken. The only question is tangy green sauce or zippy red sauce. As just about everyone we always have boneless, skinless chicken breasts on hand when friends drop unexpectedly in for dinner. Patti bought a tub of jalapeno cream cheese and built this recipe around it. Both…
Piggy Pops!!! Oh Man These are GOOD! I just wish we had thought of these when we were cooking at the Farmer’s Market. I know we would have sold out of these every week!!! Patti made a lemon pepper sauce that was an awesome “Dipping” sauce and was a great marinade. We took some chops, cut them in half and put them on lollipop sticks…
Pepper Crusted Rib Roast was Ken’s idea of a Father’s Day treat and our furry kids agreed. Patti ordered a 4-bone 8 ½ pound rib roast from Texas Steak Warehouse. So, we all knew it would be tender, juicy and delicious. We seasoned it with a thick pepper crust, and we served it with "Ken’s Chuckwagon Baked Beans". A celebration dinner that would be…
Garlic Pie, if you LOVE garlic this is for you. This pie is packed with 3 cups of garlic, ½ pound of bacon and almost a pound of cheese… All the major food groups, you can serve it as a main dish or as a side with a good steak. I like doing them on GMG pellet grill so I can set it off with…
Grand Burger to celebrate our move to Grove, OK . with our home on the Grand Lake. Ken loves it because our dock, where he fishes from, it's close the house. Patti loves it because of all the knotty pine walls and hardwood floors. This burger is almost a full pound of lean beef, cheese sauce and condiments all on a small bread bowl…
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 into…
Chicks Love Tailgating! because everybody love good slow smoked chicken and our Green Mountain Grill makes it easy to feed a crowd of hungry tailgaters. Rubbed with “Duck Fat” for a crispy skin and seasoned with our “Date Night Butt Rub & Date Night Heat”. We split 4 large chickens around 5 or 6 pounds each and almost filled our JB grill. But you…
Big Beef Ribs go Tailgating!!! With things opening up it’s time to be thinking of camping and tailgating. We found some nice ribs and thought they would make a special camp dinner. Look at that smoke ring! These slabs of ribs are too big for 2 slabs to fit into the Green Mountain Davey Crockett tailgater. Problem solved by our Bull Racks; they can…
Salsa de Cacahuate Burger, a BIG burger double stacked with two 1/3-pound patties. Topped with 2 different cheeses and then our Salsa de Cacahuate (peanut salsa)! I wanted an Ooey Gooey Cheesy burger so I put a ton of cheese on them. Then served them on an onion bun. I Love Big Burgers!!! Salsa de Cacahuate (peanut salsa), I fell in love with this…
Desert Dust Ribs, big, beautiful ribs with an “Earthy” flavor and a "Kiss of Smoke" that will have you cleaning the bones. Amazing ribs in just 4 hours. Tender and almost falling off the bones. We have been wanting some ribs and baked beans. So, we thought we would do some for date night! My beans as always were great! We love these beans…
Grilled Lamb Chops are the best if you love lamb the way we do. We made them even better with Raider Red’s prime lamb loin chops on our Green Mountain Grill. They were extra tender and juicy because Raider Red ages them for 21 days, then marinated overnight with an herb and wine marinade. Easy, because you can do all the preliminaries the day/night…
