Lucky 7 Smoked Salmon with Whole Grain Honey Mustard
I have several recipes on my blog with smoked salmon. It’s a really versatile dish, it’s easy to cook, and most people like salmon. So, if you’re picking a dinner item for a group, it’s a good choice. For this dish, I slow smoked the salmon to 145 degrees, resulting in a much different texture […]
Woo Woo Turkey Melt with Worcestershire Aioli
A good patty melt marks off a lot of boxes for a satisfying and tasty meal. It has toast for flavor and crunch, caramelized onions for sweetness, ooey-gooey melted cheese, because that’s awesome. But, at the heart of it is a flavorful, seared patty that sends that satisfying signal to all of your taste buds. […]
Steakhouse Style Mushrooms
Sautéed mushrooms are one of my favorite sides, especially when I’m cooking steak. Being an old hand in the restaurant business, I’ve cooked more than my share of mushrooms. I love many different types of mushrooms, and use many in different dishes. Someone asked me to write this recipe for a good steak side item, […]

Visiting Guatemala
Recently, I had the honor of going to Guatemala to judge a BBQ Contest. Yep, a BBQ contest in Guatemala, and let me tell you, it was not an ordinary contest.

White Buffalo Sauce
This easy recipe for my White Buffalo Sauce is a zesty accent sauce you’ll love.

Smoked Picanha Steak with Poblano Relish
Picanha Steak is one of my favorite cuts of beef to eat. Also known as a sirloin cap steak, culotte, or churrasca steak, the picanha steak is tender and absorbs flavor so readily it’s very versatile. While most Americans generally only get these cuts at a Brazilian steakhouse, It is the most popular cut in […]
Smoked Chipotle Beef Spare Ribs
Beef ribs don’t really get a lot of press or acclaim. They’re bulky, to get tender they need an experienced hand, and frankly, when cooked properly, they just don’t look good. However, when done right they are among the most flavorful bites you’ll get to try. My Smoked Chipotle Beef Spare Ribs recipe is simple, […]
Sweet Corn Pie
I grew up in the country, and corn was a staple in our garden and on our table. I’ve loved corn in all its’ forms ever since. Freshly cooked corn on the cob, creamed corn (my favorite rendition is my Poblano Creamed Corn recipe,) cornbread, grits, and the list goes on. But one thing I […]
