Beef Bourguignon My Way

I will never be able to give up eating winter dishes all year round.  There is just something therapeutic about a pot of soup boiling or some beef ribs braising on the stove.  Plus the way it makes the house smell beats any fragrance that Febreeze can ever make.  However, if they could somehow manage […]

Maple Whiskey Pulled Chicken

I use to religiously participate in Taste and Create but end of last year abruptly stopped.  The reason was not because the program sucked but I missed one month and then slowly I kept forgetting to send my name as the months passed by.
For those who do not know Taste and Create is an awesome […]

Cheesy sausage stuffed manicotti

You ever have one of those nights where you just want to hide?  That was my Monday night when I made this dish.  The joy and joyness of Spring in Indiana is one day the weather can go from a pleasant and sunny 60 degrees all the way down to a cold and wet 30 […]

Meyer Lemon Cookies

Whenever I hear of someone talk about baking my mind instantly goes to the part of Kitchen Confidential where Adam calls Tony wanting him to feed the bitch or she will die.  I also instantly presume everyone who bakes constantly is some evil genius hell bent on world domination with tangled  hair, smell of a […]

Simple BBQ Base Recipe

In keeping with the spring themes of grilling/BBQ I have decided that some love needs to be shown for BBQ sauce.  Most people when they think of BBQ sauce just think of the stuff that is in squeeze bottles and has a shelf life equal to the half life of uranium.  However, BBQ sauce is […]

Grilled Salsa Verde and act now I will throw in flank steak

Lately I have been in this mode of have to throw together this spice blend, I have a bunch of bottles of POM how can I use them, and all around surprisingly creative.  However, I feel this need to get back to basics every now to remind myself that there are time proven recipes that […]

Spice Rubbed Lamb Chops

Before I start anyone good with logos?  I want to do a blog cook contest and would love to have a logo for it.  My photoshop skills can’t even successfully draw stick figures.  I am looking for cheap/donation with credit too since I don’t think what I am looking for would take someone with skills […]

Stuffed Bell Peppers

This post marks a new era for me in that I have finally joined the Digital SLR revolution (revolution will be televised across living rooms and the great divide).  Went with the Nikon D60 and mucho thanks to my buddy Richard for his patience as I ask a ton of questions/sending him test photos.  This […]

Grilled chicken wings with a chipotle dry rub

I know this will probably get me my own scarlet A tattoo on my chest but I am not a fan of wet wings and prefer a good spicy dry rub wing that has been grilled.  That way the joyous skin gets some nice blackening on it and I think you can get a lot […]

Spicy Lime Ginger Pork Loin

How the heck do you people think of names for dishes?  I have resorted to basically just throwing the majority of ingredients into the title from here on out.  Apparently I lack massive amounts of creativity.
This marinade worked really well with pork loin.  Even though it has a lot of powerful ingredients behind it the […]
