Adventures In Outdoor Cooking!
I love cook books, magazines and everything else that deals with food. My friend Nikki has a wonderful cooking blog, Chef in Training. I often go there for a new idea or when I am looking for something different to cook outside. The other day I saw these fabulous looking burritos and knew they were destined […]
Whether you are in the back yard or out in the mountains somewhere, it is always good to have an easy to make, hearty meal. And this chili is a family favorite!. It is so simple and the ingredients are easy to just “grab and go” to your destination. So make up a batch, sit […]
I was looking for something new last week as I prepared for our family get together. Looking on the Camp Chef website I saw this recipe for beef short ribs and instantly fell in love. The rich, deep flavor was outstanding and the tender ribs turned out great. My son thought the carrots were fantastic, […]
Sometimes you want to do something a little more fancy and special for Mother’s Day. If you asked my wife, on almost any special occasion what she would like, it would be Filet Oscar. Steak by itself is wonderful, but when you top it with asparagus, crab meat and Bearnaise Sauce it becomes absolutely gourmet. […]
As a scout master I was always looking for an easy soup to prepare on a camp out. As my daughter was reading through my mother’s old journals she found this soup recipe that we just had to try. It only has six ingredients but it is full of flavor! The pork ‘n beans were […]
Once I had made my own Smoked Pastrami it just seemed natural to make pastrami burgers. The pastrami has so much flavor that you really don’t need much seasoning in the burgers. They make such a great combination. Pastrami Burgers 2 lbs lean ground beef 1/3 c Sweet Baby Rays (or your favorite sauce) 1/2 lb or more […]
I have never made my own pastrami before. It was a bit labor intensive but, oh my was it worth it! This is pastrami at it’s very best. The combination of spices and light smoke is fantastic! It may have been my first time but it certainly will not be my last! Smoked Pastrami 3 […]
I love my Aunt Opal. She lived on a ranch in Nevada and I was so excited any time we could go visit her. This is one of her family recipes given to me many years ago. It takes a regular meat loaf to the next level. After eating it, you will probably love Aunt […]
Are you looking for a fast and easy meal that will please everybody? Well look no further. This cornbread is warm, filling and has a taco kick of flavor they will love. Make up a batch and see smiles come to their faces. Tex Mex Cornbread 1 lb. hamburger 1 pkg. taco seasoning 2 pkg. […]
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 […]
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 […]
