3 Ingredient Smoked Ham

3 Ingredient Smoked Ham by Patti Fisher

We had a request for an extra easy ham dinner. So, we made a ham with just three ingredients including the ham! It was extra simple and extra delicious. The sweet comes from brown sugar. The spicy comes from the mustard. Ken prefers the horseradish or jalapeno mustard, Patti likes the spicy brown or Dijon. Patti and I have set one…

Beef Tenderloin with Garlic Sherry Sauce

Beef Tenderloin with Garlic Sherry Sauce by Patti Fisher

Its date night and we wanted to celebrate with something extra special. Patti found a beef tenderloin and made a special garlicky wine sauce for it. Patti cooked up some bacon to add the drippings to the sauce and used the crispy bacon in mashed potatoes. Ken got a new toy from Char-Griller: a Smokin’ Stone that we had to play…

Chocolate Bacon Caramel Cheesecake

Chocolate Bacon Caramel Cheesecake by Patti Fisher

Those of you that know us know that we like bacon, a lot. We saw a picture of a Bacon Cheesecake last week and have thought of nothing else. They didn’t have a recipe so we worked out one that we liked. Or let me say that everyone loved. Our crash test dummies Jessie and Marcos were swooning. There were only a few crumbs left on the…

Bacon Cheese Garlic Bread by Patti Fisher

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…

Citrus Pepper Chicken Bacon Cheeseburgers

Citrus Pepper Chicken Bacon Cheeseburgers by Patti Fisher

Citrus Pepper Bacon Chicken Cheeseburgers because Ken loves cheeseburgers or anything with cheese and bacon. Patti wanted to make the burgers a little healthier and she loves chicken. These were super simple and full of flavor. A definite for our next camping or tailgating adventure. I think the Briggs Citrus Pepper Seasoning just…

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…

Stuffed Double Cheese Bacon Burgers

Stuffed Double Cheese Bacon Burgers by Patti Fisher

Ken made his amazing cold smoked cheese again and before Patti ate it all for snacks we decided to use some for recipes. We had been talking about stuffed burgers for awhile and these were so good. Patti stuffed them with our cold smoked mozzarella, then topped the burgers with bacon squares and smoked cheddar. Perfect. There aren’t a…

Southwestern Mac & Cheese

Southwestern Mac & Cheese by Patti Fisher

Southwestern Mac & Cheese, we have to laugh, of all the recipes we get asked for from gourmet to down home, what we get the most requests for is macaroni and cheese. Our date night was coming up so I asked Ken what he was in the mood for thinking he would say steak or ribs. Nope, he wanted a creamy mac & cheese with a little flavor…

White Dry Rub

White Dry Rub by John Greenler

I was using my red rub for all meats. It was good but thought the beef needed to treated differantly. I came up with this rub for my red meats. Now I still use my red rub on Brisket but that is the exception. We have also found this to be a great inplace of salt and pepper on your table.
