Cooking with leftovers: Ultimate Steak Sammich


When you BBQ steaks for a crowd, it’s not uncommon to have some leftover Grade A slabs of cow. There are tons of ways to use left over steak, but a great steak sammich is probably the most satisfying. When you combine it with some simple, fresh grilled veggies and a spot or two of […]

Food porn: Jalapeno Shrimp


A while back, One of Seven posted a killer recipe for Grilled Citrus Jalapeno Shrimp. Over the weekend, we modified it somewhat to cook shell on in a basket rather than on skewers. As always, they were awesome and so we just had to share the view!

Getting ready for the BBQ of the Decade


Ok, well not really ready at all. We’ve cut down one apple tree, still have one more to go if people are to sit in our back yard! We got a whole bunch of sausage ordered today. These aren’t your normal sausage, rather some nice gourmet stuff like sun dried tomato, apple and cheddar & […]

Stuffed Chicken Breast with Roasted Red Pepper Puree


A couple of weeks ago, we were having afternoon bevvies and munchies at East Side Mario’s and a chicken main caught my eye. It was some sort of stuffed chicken breast with a red pepper sauce. Great idea.
This recipe is easy to prepare and doesn’t require much preparation. Best of all it will impress your […]

Here in the FAB East kitchen, we just love BBQ tools. Given the amount of time we spend in The Garage, the Hot Rod line of BBQ tools will just be perfect for us. The line includes the Mop Brush, Grilling Tongs, Turner and a Fork. They all come etched with a cool flame […]

FAB East gets a Smoker


The Real Canadian Superstore strikes again. It’s almost as bad as going to Costco. I’ve noticed lately that a lot of BBQ recipes call for smoking the meat, but we don’t have a smoker. We just got a new BBQ this summer, so buying a smoker really wasn’t in the immediate plans. Last weekend I […]

Cedar-Planked Salmon with Pasta in Lemon-Cream Chardonnay Sauce


We barbeque year-round, so now that the evenings are getting a bit chillier, we just plan on something a little more substantial yet still great for warmish-weather grilling! This recipe looks like it has a million ingredients and will take a lot of time, but really it’s pretty simple, once you see how it’s […]

Roasted Red Pepper and Rosehip Sauce


The Flavours of Canada: A Celebration of the Finest Regional Foods* (Anita Stewart; ISBN1-55192-182-0) is a really incredible cookbook that features regional ingredients from coast to coast and their exceptional treatment. Adapted only slightly from the original recipe (which accompanies a stuffed beef tenderloin), this sauce is outrageously good. And fast… and […]

The Simple Pleasures of BBQ


Somewhere along the path to healthy eating, the world has discarded one of the most simple and enjoyable BBQ pleasures. BBQ chicken breasts, bone in and skin on. I know, the fat and cholesterol, not to mention the carcinogens from crisped flesh are all bad for you. A few weeks ago, I read something somewhere […]
