BBQ Sauce

Recipe: Quick and Easy BBQ Sauce

I know that folks out there are serious about their ‘cue. There are regional wars fought over the “right” BBQ. The lengths people go to for that perfect flavor is mind-boggling: brining, top-secret spice blends, mopping, wood chips, smoking, marinating. And of course, the star ingredient—the sauce. Will this sauce win you any awards and […]

Lamb Broth

Recipe: Lamb Broth and Soup

Holy moly. I’d never made lamb broth before this, and it certainly won’t be my last time. It’s assertive yet smooth, lighter than beef but stronger than chicken. Maybe like the turkey broth of hooved animals? Whatever the case, it’s awesome. The soup itself is quite simple but wouldn’t be the same without this broth. […]

Beef Bone Broth

Recipe: Beef Bone Broth

Sheesh, y’all. I got so excited about that Curried Cauliflower Sausage Soup I forgot to post this recipe for bone broth last week after I promised it to you. In case you don’t already know, bone broth is deeply, deeply good for you. If you’re worried about calcium but aren’t eating dairy, then bone broth […]

Shrimp Salad w/ Chive Mayo

Recipe: Shrimp Salad w/ Chive Mayo

Since my Whole30 began, I’ve been mourning the loss of some convenience foods (like salami, bacon, and cheese) while discovering others. This recipe makes good use of one of my discoveries. I always glance toward the fish case at my co-op, but don’t always pause. But as I was pondering what to make for lunch […]

Mustard-Apricot-Rosemary Glazed Pork Chops

Recipes: A Duo of Grilling Glazes

After making the Blackberry BBQ Sauce recipe, I thought, “Hmm…what other sorts of flavors would work?” I humbly submit Mustard-Apricot-Rosemary Glaze and Spiced Cherry Glaze for your approval. They couldn’t be simpler. Mix an unsweetened fruit preserve with some herbs or spices, baste, and grill. You can whip these up while the grill’s preheating. I’ve […]

Recipe Shout-Out: Beer Marinade

If you’re a purist, this recipe won’t float your boat. Me? I’m a Primalist, so things like beer and the random tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce don’t trouble me. So if you’re free of any major reactions to these sorts of things and are willing to relax a bit, I can share with you the best […]

What are you up to this fine weekend? I’m heading for the hills for my first backpacking trip in 3 years with a lovely group of ladies. And yes, we’re lugging in beer and inflatables for floating in the lake. We’re fancy that way. If your plans include grilling, I’ve got something for you to […]

Butter's recommended usage demonstrated

Recipe: Horseradish-Chive Compound Butter

So we’re waist-deep into grilling season, and while a grass-fed steak needs little adornment, sometimes you gotta shake things up. You don’t have to get fancy, and this butter doesn’t. But my, oh my, is it good. This compound butter would also taste great on fish, pork, and assertive veggies like asparagus and broccoli. Horseradish-Chive […]
