Bacon-Wrapped, Stuffed Jalapeno’s, BBQ, And UK!!
This weekend, the Saturday after Thanksgiving, was a day surely to be repeated as an annual event for the King Family. We decided to fore-go the traditional Thanksgiving Day Turkey and Ham and smoke a beef brisket. The brisket (with a simple BBQ rub) was on the smoker starting at noon, just about the time the Kentucky Wildcats Football Team started their victory march against Tennessee, breaking...

Alex’s Almost 3 Hour Beef Stew
I’ve always liked a good beef stew. Something good that wouldn’t take a ton of time, easy to make and something the kids would actually eat. My kids actually ate this, and my wife liked it (also plus for my cooking). Plan for about half an hour of prep time, and 2 to 2 and a half hours to simmer. This would serve about 4-6 people. I haven’t tried this in a crock pot yet, but...

Alex’s Grilled Jalapeno Beer Cheese
Jalapeno Beer Cheese! All of the Man Cave peeps have been working on their own version of beer cheese. I have a couple of variations of an original batch I’d love to share. With a simple base recipe, you can add more flavor to kick it up a notch or two on the heat factor. What you’ll need: Food Processor (2) cups of extra sharp cheddar cheese 1/4 cup (or more, up to half a cup)...

Alex’s Jumpin Jacks Jalapeno Juice
I love hot foods. I like hot sauce. Why not make your own? Piece of cake! Last year I grew a bunch of jalapenos and wanted to make a sauce from it. I looked up the tobasco recipe on-line and modified it to make it my own. This recipe is cheap, easy and it tastes GREAT. The recipe yields about half a pitcher of sauce, but it depends on the size of your blender and how many jalapenos you use....

Habanero Raspberry Pepper Jelly
As I mentioned on Facebook and Twitter last week, my habanero plant has produced a bumper crop this year. I’ve frozen a majority of what’s been picked but I’ve also made a hot bbq sauce, a wing sauce, and some salsa. But I wanted to make something different. One of our followers (thanks LisaMarie!) suggested a habanero jelly. Perfect! So, I got to researching how to make a pepper...

Who Are You Calling Jerk, Chicken?
As I mentioned in another post (Habaneros Galore) my habanero plant has produced a bumper crop this year. I have frozen most of them for winter use; however, thinking of dishes where habaneros are a main ingredient I realized I’d never made a Jerk marinade before. Not being Jamaican (I know, right?!?!) I had to resort to a little internet recipe research. What I created is somewhat of a “greatest...
