Adventures In Outdoor Cooking!
This is our new Christmas Eve morning family tradition. My daughter whipped up a batch last week and they were fantastic! Even though it was 25 degrees outside this morning my wife made me go out and cook these for her. (Watch out guys!) The sweet pumpkin with the crunch of the candied pecans is […]
My family eats rice every week and we love it. I look forward to having leftover rice in the fridge because that means ham fired rice! My wife is the very best at turning plain white rice into a pallet-pleasing masterpiece. With bacon, veggies and eggs, it has a little bit of everything. It goes […]
If you go camping with the family or with a scout troop, this will quickly become one of your “go to” meals. It is super easy and so good. The warm, sweet sauce underneath with the crispy taters on top is wonderful. You can throw it together in no time and then just sit back […]
These rolls are so tender, soft and incredibly delicious. Folks will be amazed when you lift the lid off your oven and they see these beautiful rolls. The texture is unbelievable. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it. We have made lots of rolls in the past but these are among the very […]
This is the easiest, most gourmet soup you will ever cook outdoors. With just 8 cans and some taco seasoning you are ready to go in under 5 minutes! It is warm and creamy with just the right spice to fill all your hungry campers. I am sure this will become one of your go-to […]
My son, Reese, has started to create some really good things in his little charcoal smoker. Recently he smoked some chicken quarters that turned out so good. I appreciate Reese sharing this with us. Green Bean Bake One package each of legs and thighs. Dry Rub: 2 tablespoons paprika 1 tablespoons chili powder 1 tablespoon thyme 1 tablespoon garlic […]
For my daughter Alexis, this green bean bake “makes” the holidays. If she had to have one special thing on the table it would be this. It is simple to make and there are never leftovers. Hopefully it will help make your special occasions something special as well. Green Bean Bake 1 can cream of mushroom soup […]
If you want to cook a juicy, flavorful, moist turkey you really need to use a Dutch oven. Not only is the turkey great, but the liquid that remains makes the most wonderful gravy. I didn’t have to add one thing, just thicken it up a little bit. If you want to wow your family, […]
I wanted to try something different so I “butterflied” a chicken and smoked it with just butter and herbs. This turned out so incredibly delicious that I am excited to smoke other things as well. The chicken was moist and flavorful, a real treat! Maybe a turkey will be in the smoker next!! Smoked Herb Chicken […]
Just when I thought these things couldn’t get any better, they did. I loved the banana scones I made with my daughter, but then we decided to make them with fresh peaches. Oh my goodness! With fresh peaches, these scones went to a new level of yumminess. Treat your taste buds to something special with […]
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 […]
