Smoked Pulled Pork
Pulled pork is the first thing I became really comfortable smoking and being able to achieve a consistent end product. Dare I say perfect? I mean, the recipe is made the way, I really like it so I guess it’s perfect for me. And it’s become pretty popular with whomever, I have made it for…
Stuffed Hashbrowns
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day right? I love breakfast, especially what we used to call ‘lumberjack’ breakfasts growing up. This means a good stick to your ribs so you can get a lot of work done breakfast. There used to be a restaurant in Ely called Northern Grounds that made the…
Bacon Apple Avocado Panini

The Cuisinart and I have made some delicious ice creams together in the past year, and this is the latest one. We were having a party at work for one of my coworker’s birthdays, it was going to…
