Piedmontese Beef NY Strip

Beef

Have you ever heard of Piedmontese cattle before? Well, I had not until last week but am happy that I found out about this type of beef. This breed of cattle originated in the Piedmont region of Northwest Italy, well known for its wines. The Piedmontese breed is unique as it has a certain genetic marker that enables the […]

Little Griddle Kettle-Q

Grilling Basics

As most of you know by now I am a contributor to another Blog named Big Green Brotherhood. Earlier this month Jon from Little Griddle reached out to the Brotherhood and asked us if we wanted to try their new flattop griddle named Kettle-Q. The Kettle-Q is an insert for charcoal grills >18″ in diameter. This stainless […]

NFL Kickoff Mixed Grill

Pork

This is absolutely my favorite time of the year. I love the transition to cooler weather and with that the deluge of football! The first weekend is always the best as the slate is clean and the competition is high. This Sunday was no exception as there were so much good football to watch and it started […]

Big Green Egg Chimichurri Chicken Wings

Chicken

Hello again and thanks for stopping by! Freshly back from recent travels I was looking for inspiration and found it on the Tastemade site. You know, it is that site you see posted and then re-posted on Facebook with the sped up videos enticing you to cook something that you never do. Yeah… that site! Well, when […]

Big Green Egg Fire Roasted Salsa

Sauces + Sides

Hello everyone and thanks for sharing in the salsa making journey with me. As some of you may know this is my second attempt at making salsa on the Big Green Egg. The first post in this series focused on smoked vegetables to make the salsa. This time I went with charred vegetables roasted directly […]

SuckleBusters Spare Ribs

Pork

When the founder of SuckleBusters (Dan Arnold) reached out to me to try some of their products I said yes right away. How could I say no to a company named “SuckleBusters”?! The name originated from a mythical ride Dan’s daddy told him about at the East Texas State Fair when Dan was a little kid. The ride never existed […]

Farmers Market Smoked Salsa

Sauces + Sides

If you are anything like me you want to shop at your local farmer’s market, buy ingredients that speak to you, and go home to make something wonderful. This vision of myself is in conflict with the reality that I often stroll through the market, listen to the Bluegrass band, buy a big bag of kettle […]

Big Green Egg Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings

Chicken

Last Friday July 29, 2016 was National Chicken Wing Day! As some of you may remember I participate with several Big Green “Eggsperts” cooking and writing for another blog: Big Green Brotherhood. To celebrate this great food holiday, we were eager to cook our favorite chicken wing recipes last weekend and share them with you. This […]

Grilled Tequila Lime Flank Steak

Beef

Sunday was National Tequila Day so I decided to celebrate the occasion, as I always do, with food! I took to the internet to draw inspiration from a Guy Fieri recipe for this cook. The recipe is easy to make and impressed my family. The balance of the tequila with the lime juice paired perfectly with the flank steak. […]

Joetisserie Chicken

Chicken

Over the last year I have seen many accessories allowing you to do rotisserie style cooking on a Big Green Egg. Up until now I have not had the pleasure of cooking with one. I am happy to tell you that all changed this past Father’s Day! My wife and kids got me the Kamado Joe: Joetisserie for my […]
