    Cheap Ass Monday: Dear Lord, it BURNS cheap ass, chicken, condiments, grilling, leftovers, veg | (28)
    It's not that I don't like spicy foods, it's just my heat threshold is low. Very low. Kind of like an infant, or maybe a puppy. Brian, on the other hand, has been known to eat actual fire for shits and giggles; his favorite hot sauce is called "Sweet Death" and every bottle comes with a skull keychain. (Clearly, I'm not in their marketing demographic.) Continue Reading...

    Thursday Night Smackdown: A bit of okay, gov’nor. condiments, grilling, lamb, smackdown, veg | (22)
    Quoth Brian's mom, as we finished dinner: "This goes on my list of OK." Which I promise is not the damnation via faint praise it sounds like. Since I crapped out on my own foodie event by failing to smack anything down while in North Carolina last week, I thought we'd make up for it this week (and capitalize on the lovely weather we're having right now) by turning to the grill. We have a copy of Bobby Flay's Boy Meets Grill, acquired Soup Bible-style from a Barnes and Noble discount endcap. Mock Bobby Flay all you want - lord ...

    September 2008 First Thursday: The Grill BBQ, beef, first thursdays, fish, grilling, pork, roundups, sauces, sweets, veg, veg/vegan | (6)
    September 2008 was all about gorgeous grilled foods and over-achievers. I don't know if the multiple-recipe entrants are trying to make up for lost time or just want to make the rest of you look bad, but some people are definitely working overtime here. Roundup after the jump, and October 2008 info at the end! Continue Reading...

    The Dodge & Graham Horse and Pony Jamboree: Epilogue chicken, grilling, veg | (12)
    Thank god, someone made actual dinner. The Horse and Pony Jamboree was a hell of a lot of fun to watch, but, as you may have gleaned, there was not a lot of finished food produced. It fell to the old guard to produce actual, nourishing food that would keep us sated for more than 15 minutes.  You see, the whole day had been hyped as a showdown of new vs. old school: new school being anyone born in 1977 or after who first learned to cook in the current decade (everyone but my brother-in-law Peter), old school being anyone who learned ...

    GIVEAWAY! Guess how many pounds of pork are in my refrigerator right now. BBQ, pork, roundups | (26)
    No really, guess. Closest without going over, Price is Right-style*, wins a copy of Mastering Barbecue by Steven Stines. Leave your answer in the comments anytime up until midnight this Sunday, May 25th. The reason my fridge is laden with pork is that it's almost time for our Second Annual Memorial Day Pork SmokeStravaganza, when we fill the apartment to bursting with people who in turn fill their gullets to bursting with pork (We do accommodate our veggie and kosher friends, we're not heartless...but we use a separate grill so their vegetables don't contaminate our pork). I'll be regaling ...
