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…

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…

Krabby Poppers

Krabby Poppers by Patti Fisher

Friends wanted a recipe for appetizers that were fancy and cheap, too. Everyone loves our different kinds of poppers. We’ve stuffed both sweet and jalapeno peppers with all kinds of fillings. Of course, they’re always wrapped with bacon. This time Patti stuffed pretty, sweet peppers with fake crab (aka Surimi, but you can use real…

This is a good, sweet brisket rub that you will need only one measuring cup for. Of course, you can adjust the heat by using mild or hot chili powder.

Chicken Satay & A Peanut Dipping Sauce

Chicken Satay & A Peanut Dipping Sauce by Baking Barrister

Going out to eat is expensive, so I try to make it at home. This typical Thai fare turned out better than any I've ever paid for at a restaurant and comes complete with a healthier peanut sauce made from (gasp) actual peanuts--not peanut butter!

Salt Crusted Fish

Salt Crusted Fish by Robyn Medlin

When I saw the article in the May edition of Fine Cooking on Salt Encrusted Fish, I knew I had to try it. After all, I live in South Florida and I’m always trying to figure out new things to do with seafood. This technique is surprisingly easy! Essentially, you take a whole fish and encase it in a salt layer that steams the fish as…

Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger

Lotta Cheese Cheese Burger by Patti Fisher

We got a complaint from some friends that when they go out for burgers the meat is paper thin and the cheese, if you can find any, is tasteless. We had no choice but to say “See you tomorrow, come hungry!” Everyone was happily stuffed and knew they were eating a cheese burger. They may be back again tomorrow. Not only was there 2…

Grilled Chicken, Chevre on Portabello Mushroom

Grilled Chicken, Chevre on Portabello Mushroom by Jason Freund

I don't know the official title for this, but we used to order this appetizer from Arman's restaurant in Birmingham, AL all the time. That was back in '95, when the original Chef Arman had one of the most popular restaurants in the state. It's still delicious and can actually be the entree for a nice summer meal. Tonight, we…

Pork Side Ribs With Mandarins And Veggies

Pork Side Ribs With Mandarins And Veggies by Elaine

These pork side ribs are first semi-cooked on the grill on tinfoil, then transferred to direct heat to obtain the familiar 'grill marks'! Decidedly pork in flavor, yet subtly imbued with the zesty combination of veggies and fruit. Prep:30m Cook:60m Servings:4

Honey Mustard Chicken Drummies by Patti Fisher

We got a call this week from friends excited to be taking their two adorable kids to the New Year’s parade. Of course, tailgating was a must and they wanted an easy and kid friendly recipe. They asked what the best sides would be and Ken said napkins…lots and lots of napkins. Patti came up with a barbecue sauce recipe with the help…

We wanted something fun and festive, so Cranberry Teriyaki Chicken fit the bill. A really easy marinade made with just three ingredients.
