Hello friends! I loosely based this recipe on one I found in one of my cookbooks. The actual recipe called for orzo but I decided to try it with spiral noodles (rotini). The salad was very basic-baby spinach, some swiss chard that Mr. FBBQ and I got at the farmer’s market, cucumbers, carrots, […]

Stepping outside the comfort zone is fun. Or should be fun. I still can’t dial in my cobbler, nor my garlic toum – but gotta keep trying new. Today is no different. Smoked spam isn’t new here either – The Smoked Spam-wich and Spam Bokkeumbap (Fried Rice). But I always heard this Spam

I have a superb treat for you today! Mr. FBBQ and I recently went to Eastern Market in Detroit and had some delicious gyros. I decided to try to make my own. I recruited Mr. FBBQ to help me make the seasoning from scratch! Let’s start with that. To make Greek seasoning we

I mentioned last week that I had to scrub the pellet grill. This wasn’t an option after this cook. I didn’t intend on using the RecTeq like a Blackstone, but when you’re mid cook and you run out of propane, you can’t just put it all on hold. Especially when I got a

There was always a week in spring/summer where we’d head up to Papa’s and stay for awhile. Inevitably, “barbecue beef” was always on the menu. Never really knew what it was (ok, beef.. I got it).. or do I even remember if it was good or not.. but it was always presented. Now,

Tacos aren’t anything new over here. And while I’ve eaten more than my fair share, I don’t think I’ve displayed any kind of seafood taco on here. What is new is the idea of me making a mango habanero salsa. You know I do around here.. I’ll walk you through my process, but
