Barbecue Pork Ribs

Barbecue Pork Ribs by John Spottiswood

This is my father-in-law's famous ribs recipe. He's a well traveled dentist, and has served this to friends and colleagues from all over the country. Most will tell you honestly they are the best ribs they have ever had. This is what our kids ask for when they are at Grandpa's house near their birthday and they get to pick the…

Calamansi Cloud Cake

Calamansi Cloud Cake by John Spottiswood

Calamansi is a citrus fruit commonly found in the Philippines. My sister and brother in law are headed there to visit relatives this month, so we're trying a few recipes. Calamansi can be found in California and Florida, but it is not common. You can substitute meyer lemon, lime, or even tangerine juice as a substitute.…

Georgian Shrimp Pilau

Georgian Shrimp Pilau by John Spottiswood

This Pilau dish will remind you of a tasty risotto with an american twist. It is much easier to make for large parties. Sophisticated, easy and tasty...just the way I like it.

Bourbon-BBQ Steaks

Bourbon-BBQ Steaks by John Spottiswood

These steaks are so flavorful they will make you smile. This is a delicious marinade that complements and doesn't overwhelm the flavorful Ribeye, Tbone, or NY steaks that you choose. And the rub/marinade combination makes this a steak you won't forget!

Pan Seared Sirloin Steaks with Sauteed Onions

Pan Seared Sirloin Steaks with Sauteed Onions by John Spottiswood

We don't eat a lot of steak, and when we do I normally grill it. My mom used to frequently serve pan seared steaks, generally cheaper cuts like sirloin or london broil. So I thought I'd give it a try and see if I could come up with something competitive with my grill. I started with a base recipe from Cook's Illustrated, and…

Moroccan Fish Soup by John Spottiswood

This is a flavorful, spicy soup that happens to be Moroccan but will remind you of fish soups found from Spain to Russia. It is a classic! Serves 4 as a main dish, 6 as an appetizer.

Pork Tenderloin Adobada

Pork Tenderloin Adobada by John Spottiswood

If you like carnitas and fajitas, but are in the mood for something a little different, give his recipe a try. I think you'll be impressed with the rich and pungent flavor. The combination of the flavorful meat, guacamole, corn tortillas and other fillings is wonderful. Variations of this recipe are common throughout Mexico and the…

Crockpot Carne Adovada Recipe

Crockpot Carne Adovada Recipe by John Spottiswood

We had this for dinner tonight and it was fantastic. The complexity of flavors - sweet, salty, spicy, and savory - is really amazing. It's better than 99% of the dishes I've ever been served in a mexican restaurant. I loved the carne adovada I had in Santa Fe, but I honestly don't remember any that matched this. If you try this…

Louisiana Cornbread Stuffing

Louisiana Cornbread Stuffing by John Spottiswood

This is a pretty spicy stuffing for those looking to add a little kick to their Thanksgiving dinner. It is delicious. I would recommend trying it out with Turkey sometime before Thanksgiving to decide if everyone in your family will like it. It's definitely not your grandmother's stuffing (unless you grew up in Baton Rouge)!

Creole Style Butter Beans by John Spottiswood

Butter beans (another name for Lima beans) are super healthy and flavorful. I've been looking for a simple and flavorful way to cook these, and after a lot of research I found and adapted this delicious recipe. This is flavorful and hearty enough to make a full meal out of, probably accompanied by a salad or green vegetable and some…
