Mustard French Dressing is DELICIOUS on mixed salad greens or drizzled over grilled chicken. This recipe goes way back to 1942; a time when all of our meats, fruits and vegetables were locally grown.

French Dressing is a simple recipe that calls for just a few ingredients, all of which are common in our pantry. I admit that growing up, French dressing that came out of the bottle was my favorite dressing on salads. It was sweet and it made eating Iceberg lettuce more interesting. These days, with my intention of avoiding high-fructose-corn-syrup from all products, I find myself making more... More...

Use this spice mixture into skirt steaks, chicken boobs, or whatever other food you plan to grill for fajitas. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 2 hours before grilling. Raichlen notes there are several possibilities for chili powder;... More...

This is as close as I can get you to the incredibly smokey beef fajitas I grilled the other night. When we have friends and family over, I have to set aside my blogger hat and just focus on the event itself. Otherwise, I'm liable to implode. Entertaining does not come naturally to me. I cannot "entertain." It's stressful for me. However, I've learned that I CAN have friends and family over... More...

Still House Barbecue Sauce carries its heat right up front on the tongue, but it has the right amount of dark brown sugar to keep it bearable. For folks that enjoy milder barbecue sauces, cut back on the Tabasco sauce. Even using 1 teaspoon of Tabasco sauce makes a kickin' sauce. From Barbecue! Bible : Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades, Bastes, Butters, and Glazes ~ Steven Raichlen STILL HOUSE BARBECUE... More...

INCREDIBLE FLAVOR! "Oh I've never felt love like this before, opened my eyes! No, I never felt-love-like-this-befor-or-or-ore." CONFESSION: I've never GRILLED a brisket. I've never done anything with a brisket, except eat it. I don't normally get fancy with the spices, or venture into the unusual recipes. Not because I'm scared, only because I have loved ones who set my culinary boundaries. However,... More...

FINALLY! I found a recipe that produces my kind of biscuit, i.e. thick, creamy, moist, can be stuffed with eggs & bacon or left floating on a plate of down home white sauce. I baked up Kelly's Perfect Buttermilk Biscuit recipe over at Sass & Veracity, except I didn't have buttermilk on hand, so I used sour cream. These biscuits came out beautifully and my folks were scrambling for seconds. ... More...

This blend of spices makes the best grilled chicken you've ever eaten! This recipe was born from not having a bottle of Italian salad dressing on hand.
