Smoked Chicken Wings with Draper’s BBQ Sauce

Smoked Chicken Wings with Draper’s BBQ Sauce by Robyn Medlin

Smoking can be quite addictive. So much so that I decided to add a touch of smokiness to my chicken wings last weekend. It only takes about 45 minutes of time on the grill to achieve serious smokiness, and you’ll be smacking your lips in satisfaction. I’ve been hearing about Draper’s BBQ Rub and Sauce for a while through some of my…

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…

Fat Boy Burger

Fat Boy Burger by Patti Fisher

Fat Boy Burger is fat on flavor! A ½ lb. juicy, delicious burger topped with two kinds of cheese, grilled onions and lots of bacon. We love “Big Burgers”, never get tired of them. We gave these guys a “Kiss of Smoke” with Green Mountain Premium Gold Blend pellets. Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date…

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…

Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake

Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake by Patti Fisher

Ken wanted macaroni and cheese made meaty with sausage. Patti had an “aha” moment because frozen pierogies are something we always have on hand, plus Ken just cold smoked lots of our favorite kinds of cheese. To make it extra easy we used jars of Alfredo sauce and to make it extra tasty we used Swimmin’ in Smoke Booty Shake Seasoning.…

A Skinny Memorial Day Cookout, Skinny Turkey Burgers That Taste Great!

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

CB’s Bacon Peanut Butter Burger

CB’s Bacon Peanut Butter Burger by Ken & Patti Fisher

This burger was an easy choice, Ken had to try it. I first saw it on Chef Barry’s Sizzle on the grill. http://www.sizzleonthegrill.com/blog/2010/10/19/grilled-burgers-with-a-pinch-of-sizzle/ We love peanut butter and thought about this for a second or so and we were in. Ken used the creamy, Patti loved the crunchy. Burgers are…

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…

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…
