Get your foodie on!
Yesterday I posted an Instagram pic of a mound of dry rubbed wings, before they headed into the smoker. The almost finished result is above. Years ago, I worked in a restaurant that was known for its great chicken wings. The secret was that they were dry rubbed and then roasts at 275 degrees for [...]
The dry rub has been applied and into the smoker they go!
There are those who will tell you that a great burger starts with a great bun. Personally, I believe a great burger starts with great beef, lots of cheese and fresh toppings, all crammed into a great bun. So, I guess my take is that a great burger is only complete with a great bun! [...]
The economy of buying cheap barbecues is beginning to drive me crazy. Spend $300 or so, to buy a shiny new BBQ that has rusted beyond belief in just three years. Of course the alternative is to pay over a grand to buy a beastly machine that will last years longer. Our last BBQ purchase [...]

We’re not the only ones with some media excitement lately. Our friends at Buster Rhino’s took on the Dragon’s Den team earlier this year. Not [...]
I truly think I might truly explode with envy! Not only did Larry Gaian conjure up the MOINK Ball, but he has now taken them to a whole new level.
