A Baked Potato

A Baked Potato by Amos Miller

This is so simple, you'll laugh. It tastes so good, you'll cry. I make this when we are grilling for our guests and friends and they love it. You can also do this in your oven, any time. I know an eminent doctor of Chinese medicine who once told me that it was OK to eat a Big Mac once in a while. You're an adult, adjust things…

Bacon Wrapped Lamb

Bacon Wrapped Lamb by Patti Fisher

We have a wonderful Easter visit planned from Ken’s best bud Tony, the sailor man. As a thank you for the hospitality gift he gave us was another leg of lamb. He knows us so well! It was the perfect size to wrap in a bacon weave. But then, what isn’t? Patti gave it the perfect seasoning using “Swimmin’ in Smoke” rub “Booty Shake”, so…

Our Favorite Mac & Cheese

Our Favorite Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher

It’s been rainy and cold here. Comfort food was a must. Ken wanted macaroni and cheese, but it had to be extra cheesy with a crunchy topping. Patti said no problem and added bacon and broccoli to make it tastier and a bit healthy. Our Green Mountain Grill/Smoker added extra flavor along with their Green Mountain “Sizzle Seasoning…

Awesome Short Ribs

Awesome Short Ribs by Patti Fisher

We love Big Beef flavor and short ribs scream Big Beef flavor. We went to see Juan Carlos at the market and he cut these beautiful ribs for us. We seasoned them with Chef of the Future Coconut Curry rub and then a hot sear and into the smoke for 5 hours, tender and juicy. We have our own seasonings now, so check out our store at…

Maple Mustard Crown Roast of Pork

Maple Mustard Crown Roast of Pork by Patti Fisher

We wanted to do something different and extra special for one of our Holiday dinners. Patti loved the idea of a crown roast of pork; Ken loved the frilly gold crowns on the frenched pork bones. We’ve mentioned many times the lovely folks we meet at the Murrieta Farmer’s Market. Well, a delightful family named Allee including their…

Hasselback Potatoes

Hasselback Potatoes by Patti Fisher

We love these sliced, baked potatoes with cheese and bacon. We bake the potatoes and cool them ahead of time so they’re easy to quickly prepare. These are fancy enough for special dinners and convenient enough to mostly prepare the night before. They’re a different and delicious version of a twice baked potato. You can use any flavor…

It’s the time of year for burgers and hot dogs! Hence the burger dog, but no wieners were harmed in this recipe. Patti wrapped her Cattleman’s Grill Steakhouse seasoned hamburger around a 2oz. log of extra sharp cheddar cheese, rolled it into a hot dog shape and served it on hot dog buns with our favorite hot dog condiments…which are…

Italian Sausage Mac & Cheese

Italian Sausage Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher

It’s amazing how many recipe requests we get for macaroni & cheese. That’s fine with us, it’s quick, easy and has unlimited variations. We used Ken’s favorite hot Italian sausage along with lots of his cold smoked cheddar and Patti insisted on fresh broccoli to keep it healthy. Being it was 101 here today we were more than happy to…

The Cajun Burger

The Cajun Burger by Patti Fisher

Patti had a hankering for Jambalaya, but Ken had to have a bacon cheese burger. So, we compromised and made a burger with our favorite Chef of the Future Cajun Seasoning on a bacon cheeseburger topped with extra large shrimp. It came out great, especially adding our bacon square. Our first ingredient in our cooking is imagination, but…

Scotch Eggs

Scotch Eggs by Patti Fisher

A Scotch egg is a work of art. These things are AWESOME; everyone who has tried one says “Oh My Gosh, these are great!!!” And being the Chef those words are music to my ears. A Scotch Egg is a hardboiled egg, wrapped with a quarter pound of sausage, then wrapped with a strip of thick cut bacon and put onto a stick. We call it…

Ken’s friend David came over so Ken could help him fix his computer. To thank him he wanted to treat us to take out pizza. Oh no, my friend, Patti can make a sausage pizza to make shop owners cry. She uses lots of our favorite sausage and Ken’s smoked cheeses, plus Chef of the Future Floribbean Rub & Seasoning. An easy and quick pizza…

Southwestern Beer Can Burgers

Southwestern Beer Can Burgers by Patti Fisher

We have been seeing folks post their beer can burgers for the last few weeks, all of them looking good. We wanted to take it to the next level by adding a “Southwestern” twist to it. We started with the very best ground beef: Fresh ground sirloin and blending that with some beef chorizo for 1 pound burgers with a nice blend of…
