Though it took him two extra days, Santa delivered the one gift I wanted this Christmas. I say it took a couple extra days because the Denver blizzard held up the USPS.
A Thermopen is a food thermometer that is super fast. It reads in 1-2 seconds, much faster than the spring loaded, so […]

Audrey’s boss at work asked me to cater barbeque for her team’s holiday party last week. Per usual, the menu was long and we could have fed an army. I didn’t get a lot of pictures of the final product, but I did get a couple of shots on the smoker.

Pulled Pork Empanadas

A recent Good Eats episode with Alton Brown exposed the myth that searing meat locks in mosture. He took two meats of the same cut and similar weight. One was seared and the other was oven cooked. Weighing the two cooked meats showed that the seared meat was lighter than the oven […]

A sharp knife is a cook’s best friend. A dull knife is actually a danger in the kitchen. A dull edge forces the cook to do the work instead of the knife and accidents can happen. Blade material and quality means as much to keeping the knife’s edge as how it is […]

It sure is strange that in this day and age you can have friends whom you’ve never met. I participate in a couple of Web communities: DodgeTalk.com & BBQ-Brethren.com. I have friends across North America and the UK, most I’ve never met. Tom from Utah is one of those folks. One […]

Since 2004, we’ve represented the Missouri Pork Producers Association and have done well with our whole hog and pulled pork. We are proud to show what […]
