This is something I’ve wanted to try for awhile. I haven’t made too many ribs in my paleo adventure, and there really hasn’t been a good reason as to why. With it being Memorial Day, one of the biggest BBQ days of the year, I figured now would be a great time to give them…
Top Ten Recipes for Cinco De Mayo
It’s already May (can you believe how fast this year is going already?) and that means that Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner. In the past, we’ve always managed to put out some recipes to celebrate this day. To us, it signifies the start of grilling season and summertime and let’s face it,…
Chipotle Beef Barbacoa
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…
Peach BBQ Chicken Legs
Spring is around the corner, and with that comes warmer weather, which usually means backyard BBQ’s with family and friends. One of the big BBQ dishes in my household (other than ribs and brisket of course) is definitely the BBQ chicken. Growing up, we would have chicken breasts, thrown on the grill and covered with…
Top Ten Recipes for the Super Bowl
So we are officially one week away from one of the biggest events that involves snacks and food galore. Whether you’re hosting or attending one of these parties, it’s always good to provide at least one dish that will satisfy all guests that attend. I’m talking of course about Super Bowl Sunday. I should also…
Smoked Chicken Wings with Homemade Ranch
It seems like for the past few months almost that I’ve been on a big time chicken wing kick. And I mean, BIG TIME. I think I have averaged chicken wings about 2-3 times per week. I think one of the best things about chicken wings has to be the fact that the cooking…
BBQ Pulled Pork
My family always has shredded brisket cooked in a CrockPot every summer. It’s kind of been the go to dish to feed the 9 of us (4 in my family and 5 in my cousins’ who grew up a short 6 blocks away) for any special occasion during the summer. We have plenty in the…
Vanilla Coconut Milk Ice Cream
I love ice cream. It’s hands-down one of my favorite treats – be it summer or winter. I can handle dairy OK, but occasionally I need to lay off the cow, so I decided to try my hand at making vanilla coconut milk ice cream. Meanwhile, try out the vanilla and let me know what…
Watermelon Granita
Ever since I can remember, summertime is my absolutely FAVORITE time of the year. I lived at our neighborhood pool, where I was on the swim team, later on a lifeguard and swim coach. Watermelon and summer go together like bacon & eggs – and there’s nothing better than eating a slice of juicy watermelon…
Cajun Smoked Chicken
This past weekend I tried my hand at using a tool that I’ve always wanted to use: a smoker. A few of my friends have one of their own and I always have to hear about how awesome the food is once it’s done. I have to admit, it made me very jealous and I…
