A Skinny Memorial Day Cookout, Skinny Turkey Burgers That Taste Great! by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

turkey burger photo v1 Let’s face it, most turkey burgers taste, well, rather forgettable. They’re dry, flavorless, and unremarkable. Yet, we eat them because we want a healthier alternative to a decadent beef burger. Great news-our BBQ Turkey…

Dove’s Chocolate Pork Medallions by Ken & Patti Fisher

Our friends Nate and Le Tonia are Dove Chocolatiers. Last week he sent me some of Dove’s BBQ seasoning, the Chocolate Fig Balsamic Vinaigrette, Sweet’N’Spicy Cocoa Rub and their Sweet’N’Smoky Chocolate BBQ Sauce. Patti and I both like our chocolate and Patti loves Dove’s high quality. So, we started thinking about this. My first…

Hardwood Pellet-Fired Stoven Rotisserie Turkey Brine by Stoven John

The best way to cook a smoked turkey is utilizing its' own juices to baste itself. What a better way than to use a rotisserie and a hardwood pellet-fired grill or Stoven pellet-fired burner conversion for a kettle style grill to accomplish this. Cooking time is ten minutes per pound instead of fifteen minutes per pound in a standard…

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…

Hot Hoisin Ribs by Micheline

Succulent ribs guaranteed to please. You can make them ahead and re-heat them 10 minutes on the BBQ before serving. For milder flavour, omit or reduce the asian chili paste. These are finger lickin` good.

Swordfish Braciole by Franco Lania

In the restaurant we cut this on an electric slicer. It is faster and more accurate than by hand. It is also dangerous if the fish is frozen to hard or if it is not frozen at all and is to soft. “Trick is to have it semi frozen when cutting home cooks I do not suggest the machine method use the method stated…

Smoked Whole Chicken by Bob Vincent

This recipe probably won't get much attention. However I am into smoking food so I thought I would give it shot anyway. The key to this type of cooking is patience. Slow and low is the attitude. Remember if you're lookin you ain't cookin! Resist the temptation to check to see how things are going it only lowers the temperature…

Cherry wood smoked chicken thighs with Heinz 59 sauce/glaze by Bob Vincent

This is an easy but tasty dish for a summer barbeque. I used thighs but any cut of chicken will work. Just don't overcook if using breasts. If you don't have a smoker use the grill over medium high indirect heat. I used 3 1/2 ounces of cherry wood chunks. Cherry or Apple wood add nice smoke flavor to chicken. Use soaked chips if…

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…

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…

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…
