I have used a classic liquid brine for years, plunging the old bird in a bucket of salty ice water over night. The turkey was always moist and enjoyed by all. When my daughter suggested a dry brine I was a bit stumped. I have to admit, leaving a bird uncovered in the fridge out […]

Many years ago my friend Bryant entered a community Dutch Oven competition. When he lifted the lid off his pot I said “That looks like Baklava”. It was Baklava and it was wonderful.

A while back I told you about the Orion Cooker. I thought it sounded amazing, but I didn’t know just how amazing it really was. After receiving my Orion Cooker I have cooked two 6-pound chickens in 90 minutes. I did three racks of pork ribs in 90 minutes and then last weekend I cooked […]
Sometimes after you make a Dutch oven full of flavorful potatoes you seem to have a few leftovers. My family loves potato soup and this one is the easiest thing you will ever make, and the flavor is incredible. It already has the bacon, cheese and spices so the soup is already half made. It […]

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 […]
