Adventures In Outdoor Cooking!
Whether you are camping with the scouts, chilling with the family or in the back yard with friends, baked ziti is a comfort dish that always gets rave reviews. It is kind of a one pot “add what ever you like” kind of dish. A BIG shout out to my good friend Mark Kapp for […]
This is a wonderful, flavorful dish that I love to make. I use a cast iron wok which really helps, but a cast iron or other heavy fry pan will work as well. The combination of vegetables, peanut butter and spice is fantastic! You can substitute chicken for the pork as well. I hope you […]
I made this sauce up one day and it was so good that I called it terrific. I mean, it is so amazingly good that I could probably eat it on shoe leather and it would be a treat! I served it over chicken, but I think you could use steak or pork chops as […]
For some strange reason I have always LOVED split pea soup!. With carrots and onions it has such a wonderful, rich flavor. It is a great comfort food that I don’t get often enough (my children are not fans because it is green). The barley adds a kind of nutty texture that I really liked. […]
When the weather turns cold I love to put on a pot of soup. Just the smell of a simmering soup warms the soul and brightens the spirits. One of the easiest and most comforting is good-old chicken noodle! It is really hard to beat. For an added treat, try our Kansas influence and serve […]
When I started cooking in a Dutch oven I looked for meals that were flavorful and filling. There had to be enough to go around and make everyone happy. This is one of those meals! It has so much flavor and makes a large pot full of goodness. You can’t go wrong when you take the […]
I love soups! And if you are looking for easy then you need to try this one. It has such a rich, deep flavor. You have got to try it! Butternut Squash Soup 1 butternut squash, halved and seeded 3 T butter 1/4 c onion, chopped 1 qt. chicken broth 1 T brown sugar 8 […]
This easy, flavorful dish really moved up on my list of favorite one-pan meals. The sauce, meat and cheeses make a wonderful combination. This is something that can be taken with you as you travel camping and easily put together once you get there. It is sure to bring a smile to those lucky enough […]
One pot meals are the best. If you need to make a dinner for scouts, youth or just a bunch of hungry children – this is a great one to try! It is warm, flavorful and super delicious. It’s a guaranteed winner. Chili Mac and Cheese 1 T oil 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1 onion, […]
My daughter Katie made this and immediately called to say “WOW”. Needless to say I was anxious to try it for myself. If you like Thai food and peanut butter, you will go crazy for this dish. Just because you are outside doesn’t mean you can’t eat well, so enjoy! Thai Noodles with Chicken 1 lb. […]
Anything that can be cooked inside can be cooked outside! Anything we cook outside you can cook inside! We love to play both ends of this spectrum! So come join us for a wonderful, flavorful adventure in outdoor cooking.
Okay, so I am still having so much fun cooking on my flat top griddle! I love finding things to prepare and not only is it fun but it is so easy. These Mongolian Beef Wraps are wonderful and full of flavor. My son had a couple of friends stop by while I was cooking […]
I really like stuffed mushrooms! I love to stuff them with crab, sausage or just about anything else. So my wife and I were sitting in a doctor’s office with our son who dislocated his ankle coming off a rock wall. (But for guys that are outside the doctor’s office is a common place to […]
Many times when I am cooking outside I really like to keep it simple. Just a few choice ingredients, a great blending of flavors and a quick and easy way to get it on your plate. This is one of those wonderful dishes that is so easy and your family and friends are going to […]
