A half pound of Halenda’s awesome bacon bits cooking in cast iron, the way they should be.
BBQ bacon troubles
Cooking bacon on a very sub-standard grille is very frustrating. Just sayin’.
Strips of Bacon-y goodness
Brown sugar, dijon and cumin bacon strips. Of course, recipe to follow!
Grilled Corn, Bacon & Vidalia relish
When a condiment is this awesome, who needs a burger? Like most people, I love a good burger. Perhaps even more than most people. Even still, the same old burger toppings get stale after a while. While “mustard, a bit of relish, onions and pickles” is my classic standby, I just have to change things [...]
Bacon Wrapped Chicken and Peach Skewers
A week long camping trip with 3 children involves some pre-planning around food. Our kids like to help with the menu and the cooking and typically like to cook the same things every time we go.
