    Time and Temperature

    A pic of what I've spennt time on the past month or so between cooks, etc. This is a refurbish of a sundial I carved years back -- second of a set. (The orginal -- my first carving -- is high on the wall in our sunroom.) This one was pretty bad with mildew after being mounted 5-6 years on the...

    Jalapeno Popper Cheese Balls

    I promised some recipes, so here is the first. These are true to the name and good and spicy, but not killer. The cheese helps moderate the capsaicin. What you end up with is nicely intense and very true to jalapeno poppers. I made these for the second time just yesterday/today. Rather...

    New Info?

    I couldn't find this posted, but certainly worth discussion. https://www.angrybbq.com/the-near-loss-and-future-of-the-weber-grilling-company/

    Superb Day!

    Idalia passed us by with only some overnight rain providing a glorious upper 60s day with a light breeze, crystal blue sky, and low humidity!

    New Stuff for Me

    No, not the food -- the methods. I fixed up a bunch of poppers my way ( layer of cream cheese, slip of sliced ham, grated sharp cheddar with minced jalapeno veins and about 2 tbs blue cheese dressing) topped with Panko and Cajun spice). Most went into the fridge, but two were for now. One...

    Fire Crackers

    I find that most of the recipes that I find and enjoy come from The Spruce Eats. I haven't made this yet, but it looks amazing to me and I wanted to share it. https://www.thespruceeats.com/fire-crackers-recipe-7255273 Ingredients 1 cup oil (olive, sunflower, canola, or peanut oil are all good...

    Just My New Grill Space

    I enjoy seeing some of the setups and environments folks here have for their grilling/smoking, so wanted to share my new space. We moved from 10.6 acres in the woods with 2600 sq feet of deck/porch (my space was on a large covered porch) to a townhouse 8 miles away with 0.6 acres and 588 sq...

    Memphis-style Tangy and Spicy BBQ Sauce

    I was pondering what to do with about a pound and a half of a Costco rotisserie chicken and thought: BBQ sauce! Maybe not real original, but very tempting. The first Memphis sauce I found sounded good so "Why not"? https://barefeetinthekitchen.com/tangy-memphis-bbq-sauce-and-oven-baked/ But...

    Just a Quick Set of Tuna Rellenos

    A few days ago for lunch i got out a large can of tuna, some mayo and sour cream, added a small diced Kosher pickle and some 1/4 inch chopped tobasco chilis, salt, fresh ground black pepper, garlic powder and dried chopped onion and mixed it all together for some nice tuna salad on bolillo...

    Simple Spicy Meatloaf

    This was an impromptu recipe that I did basically to use space in my smoker while I had it running. I resisted the temptation to add more hotter spices (chili powders, cayenne, etc.) specifically to learn the impact of the tabasco chilis that my sister grew and gave me. She gets a copy of this...

    Savory Mop Sauce

    I used substitutions like dried grated onion and garlic powder and half the beef stock, but the result was fine. Savory Mop Sauce ½ stick of unsalted butter ½ white onion, sliced thin 6 smashed garlic cloves 2 cups beef stock 1/2 cup coffee or apple cider vinegar 2...

    Short Rib Smoke

    Well, I was planning to smoke these ribs today, but it started grey, gloomy and rainy so I opted to wait a day. Got lots to do in my micro shop just getting my grill cabinet refinished. So tomorrow I'll continue this. (Nasty trick, huh, to provide a tempting title and then duck. :confused: )...

    Weird and Scary

    Sometimes things happen that you just don't expect -- like @LMichaels medicine issue. Last night just after full dark, I stepped out into the small courtyard that ends at my grill. I mainly wanted to see how the two solar lanterns looked there newly hung outside the doorway since there is no...

    Cleaning Day

    Where to put this -- so many possible forums. But the 14.5 was the biggest pain so here goes. We moved in Jan. Only 8 miles but from our home of 30 years. I cleaned the Genesis just before moving, but the WSM was OK. Note the "was". With all the move effort , the Gennie didn't get used...

    Undesirable Bonanza

    So here we are on the verge of a stifling holiday weekend and our 4-month-old chest freezer decides to give up. The good news it's under warranty, the not so good, is that a tech won't be here until Friday -- and no real guarantee the freezer will be working when he leaves (parts?). So...

    Definitely Gotta Try

    While they're OK, I've never had great results with bacon wrapped jalapeños. Mainly because, despite trying several different techniques, my bacon never really gets crispy. That's what led me to embedding VA Baked Ham in my jalapeños which I find much better (lòk in Recipes). However, I...

    Improved Stuffed Jalapenos (w/ pics)

    Ok, this is very much personal preference and others certainly may not agree. Why put it here instead of in Recipes? Because I've already posted the recipe in Recipes (be sure to also see my recent "Reply" there): https://tvwbb.com/threads/canned-jalapenos.92371/ . This current topic is more...

    What the?

    I'm posting this here instead of in Recipes because I think it's more a discussion item than necessarily a recipe that anyone will try. And if you do try it please comment here and feel free to post to Recipes and claim credit because you know more than I do. I don't know where this came...

    Rich's Spicy Cuban Black Bean Soup

    This concludes a post in Grilling about not using my grill much recently. I'll add links below to the original recipes that I borrowed from to create this. Many recipes are similar with variations on spices, cooking method, and some type of meat such as using a ham hock. Personally, I found...
