Real quick backstory – I had to make some pork butts. Father-in-law was coming back to town, and nothing better than having meals ready to eat. I also moved office spaces, so I had to say hello to the new crowd the only way I know how. Through smoked meats. So we’re going

People were talking about how they reminded them of Jack-in-the-Box tacos, and inevitably the conversation went to kangaroo

Happy Monday! This dish was pretty easy to make but took a bit of time. We can start with the sauce. This dish was actually supposed to have chipotle peppers in it. Mr. FBBQ says they aren’t spicy but I don’t know that I trust his evaluation of what is and is not

Spring had just sprung, and with a little bit of nice weather, it was time to drag out the blackstone. Now, I had a choice this particular afternoon. It was Friday, I just got off work – had my running gear in my truck. And I chose fat. I was going to cook

Man, I’m going to be eating a lot of pizza this year. I do most of my cooks on the weekends. I’ll take the Saturday/Sunday time to prep, cook, eat and repeat. During the week, it’s either leftovers, salads, maybe some grocery store sushi. Once and a great while, MrsForensicBBQ and I will
