Beef Tallow

April 12, 2025 by Dana Leave a Comment

I’m going to show you how to make “Liquid Gold” today otherwise known as beef tallow. If you’re the type of person who has ever saved your leftover bacon grease (or at least remember your mom and grandma doing that) and know how much flavor that adds when you cook with it – you’re going…

Rhubarb Orange Compote

May 26, 2021 by Dana 1 Comment

Well it’s that time of the springtime when my rhubarb plant is taller than my good friend’s 5 year old daughter (whoops, almost 5 year old 😊) – we took a look last weekend when they visited!  That means it’s time to start thinking of creative ways to use rhubarb again.  Derek remembered his Grandma…

Grilled Lemonade

June 20, 2019 by Dana Leave a Comment

One of my favorite drinks to make in the summertime is fresh squeezed lemonade.  And no, I actually don’t even mind squeezing the lemons for the lemon juice.  It’s hard to explain but making a pitcher of lemonade means sitting down to enjoy it and somehow that makes the making of it relaxing to me. …

Rhubarb Orange Crumble Frozen Yogurt

June 11, 2018 by Dana Leave a Comment

It’s been a while since I last posted a recipe.  In fact, this has been the longest break between recipes since we started Gravel & Dine back in 2014. And it’s not for lack of having recipes to share – I have so many fun recipes to share that I’ve been working on. One of…
