Grilled Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

The other week I was asked by my friend Sean to make and post a grilled shrimp recipe.  I am always looking for new ideas so I jumped on the chance.  What kind of shrimp would I make?  Bacon wrapped shrimp, of course.  So I went to the store picked up a couple of pounds [...]

White Truffle Twice Baked Potatoes

The other day I needed a tasty side dish to serve with some juicy grillled steaks.  I looked around my kitchen and I found a couple baking potatoes.  I decided to make some twice baked potatoes.  To spice it up, I added some white truffle oil to the mix.  I know this is cheating, but [...]

Bacon Crusted Quiche

I love brunch and I love quiche. However, today I didn’t feel like making a pie crust so I made a bacon crust for the quiche. Basically you form it like you would a real pie crust. You need to blind bake it with the help of some parchment and beans. Then you fill with [...]

Bacon Pancakes

The perfect combination just got better.

I love pancakes and bacon, so much that I added the bacon right into the pancakes.   The result, pure awesomeness.  No joke, it is amazing.  Fruits and chocolate are nice in pancakes, but the real deal is bacon.  The smokey salty flavor goes great with the warm sweet flavor of the pancakes and maple syrup.

The Infamous French Bacon Sandwich

I have been getting a few emails regarding the French Bacon Sandwich that I posted on my about page.  It is really tasty.  I first heard about the French Bacon Sandwich when I was in college.  My old roommate Nate and I were watching the South Park DVDs and the intro for Season 2.  The intro [...]

Cowboy Baked Beans

As you can see I am prepping this week for barbecue.  Yesterday was some awesome potato salad.  Today we are making cowboy baked beans.  I wanted to make beans from scratch.  Just a word of warning.  Making beans from scratch takes longer than barbecueing a whole hog.  The end result, was totally worth it.  And [...]
