As burger month rolls on this week’s inspiration does not come from a local burger joint but my new sweet BBQ sauce. Besides, what’s the point of having a blog if I can’t shamelessly self promote my new products, I’ve got to create some hype.

May is National Hamburger Month and I couldn’t be more excited. I love burgers, they are one of my all time favorite foods.

If you’ve already cheated and looked at … More Pork Belly Uncured!
The other day while shopping at my favorite Sam-Mart-Club I ran across a sweet deal on Meyer lemons, 2 lbs for 98 cents! It was way too good a deal to pass up. But then I was stuck with the dilemma on what to do with them? After a few days of contemplation I ultimately … More I Got Game…..Hens!
It’s that time of year again, TestGiving!

Last week I was hustling sauce and rub at the local growers market and the air was permeated with the aroma of fresh roasted green chile. There were two roasters going and my booth was situated right between them. The smell was absolutely divine, not to mention, great for green chile rub sales. I was … More Green Chile 101: The Sauce
