Cinco de Mayo is fast approaching and while we’ve posted recipes that celebrate this day in the past, this is a recipe that Sean has always wanted to do: Beef Barbacoa from Chipotle. There’s just something about that smoky, spicy latin BBQ that he can’t get enough of. Plus, we’ve been meaning to find a…
Turmeric and Herb Pulled Beef
It’s been cold the last few weeks in LA and even going into last month some as well. That means that my crock pot has been on the receiving end of almost a non stop workout for that time. Whether I’m making some bone broth, rendering more lard for cooking or just using it to…
Beef Heart Confit with Sous Vide Beets
This is actually something that I’ve had in the works for quite some time. I had this idea way back in October of last year but never was able to find the time to get it going. It was also difficult for me to get my hands on a quality grass fed beef heart as…
Crock Pot Carne Asada
So I know lately, given the season, I’ve been focusing on lots of desserts and holiday fare. So with this recipe, I wanted to get away from that briefly, hey Thanksgiving might be over but Christmas is coming, and I have a few recipes coming down the pipe for that! But for now, I must…
Avocado Goat Cheese Stuffed Burgers with Sriracha Dipping Sauce
A few weeks ago I was experimenting with avocados as a topping for some burgers. I had just grown tired of using sliced avocado on my burgers and remembered the success I had (texture wise anyway) using whipped avocado for a mousse. If it could work there, why not as a topping for some burgers?…
Grilled New York Strip Steak with Hatch Chile Chimichurri
A few weeks ago I was at a friend’s housewarming party and we made these amazing yet simple steaks for the party. Also, included was some amazing Argentina style chimichurri sauce. If you’re not familiar with chimichurri, it’s prepared in a similar fashion to a pesto, but has a few different ingredients and a stronger…
Cajun Burgers with Carmelized Onions
It’s summertime so I’ve been grilling a lot recently and more specifically, I’ve been working on making a really great burger. Ever since I discovered a cajun seasoning mixture for a smoked chicken, I’ve been putting it on almost everything and making burgers with the mix was an amazing game changer and it is…
Review: Against All Grain | Curried Short Ribs
Paleo Book Season is definitely in full swing. I have been lucky enough to get on the right list somehow for advanced copies of some great books. The latest one to hit my doorstep is Against All Grain by Danielle Walker, the genius mind behind the blog of the same name. Not only are the…
Review: 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking | Italian Wedding Soup
Well, they’ve done it again. Two of the hardest working people I know have released yet ANOTHER book. My good friends, Bill and Hayley from The Food Lovers’ Primal Palate have been working hard on an expansion of their wildly popular ebook 30 Day Intro to Paleo called The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking. Let…
Sirloin Steak and Eggs
It seems like everyone’s go-to breakfast in the paleo world is bacon and eggs with some veggies in there (and honestly, who can blame that breakfast?). I know that’s been mine for almost 3 years now. But as the saying goes, variety is the spice of life, so I’ve been tinkering with another popular breakfast…
