Wow. I can’t believe how fast Thanksgiving came along this year. And that’s saying something since up here in Canada, Thanksgiving happens at the beginning of October. You’d think that I would have had enough warning right? This is a recipe/food project I’ve wanted to tackle since Suz and I saw Michael Symon make it…
Firecracker Duck Wings
Wow, what a week it’s been for us lately. It’s been so busy that the time has just flown by in a big way. Last week, Suz flew out to Pittsburgh to hang out with some of our best friends, Bill and Hayley Staley from Primal Palate. I was supposed to go with her for…
Duck Fat and Herb Roasted Asparagus
When I was home in Alabama for a few weeks visiting my family, my mom and I got to do a lot of cooking. We were throwing together dinner one night, having brought home a rotisserie chicken for the main meat. My mom had asparagus on hand and threw together this awesome side dish and…
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.

Herb Roasted Turkey and Gravy with Citrus Cranberry Sauce
Thanksgiving is just around the corner and with it brings one of the most iconic dishes in America: The Roasted Turkey. We’ve all experienced some amazingly succulent and tasty birds in our Thanksgiving pasts, but I think it’s safe to say we’ve also experienced the opposite. A turkey so dry and bland that it almost…
Fire Roasted Sweet Potatoes
This is actually something that I’ve been playing with for months now. I first tried it at my parents house in Colorado for new years dinner. They had just built a fire pit in their new back yard and I thought what better way to not only enjoy a fire in the frigid temperatures, but…
Duck Fat Yucca Fries
Ever since I heard yucca fries brought up during one of Robb Wolf’s podcasts as an alternative to sweet potatoes, I’ve been curious to try them. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some sweet fries, but after eating paleo for just about two years, it’s about time that I experiment with an alternative, you…
