Carne Asada - the entry point for me into the world of authentic Latin-American food. My husband actually was the driving force that brought this into our house. He was introduced to marinated, Latin-American style "carne asada" a few years ago. He was leaving work late, and the school handy man, a Salvadoran immigrant, was…
Happy Memorial Day everyone! Nothing says the end of May like Smoked Beef Ribs on the grill. It hasn't been the sunniest Memorial Day weekend but we definitely made the best of it. When shopping, I was surprised how expensive the beef ribs were this time, since usually they are a cheap cut of meat.…
How is it already almost the end of June?! I am still amazed how fast this year is going. Of course everyone is here for food and I am so excited to share this great dish with you all. As a bit of background of where this recipe came from: my husband works at a…
Happy Sunday! Today we are making some pulled pork sandwiches with a variety of sauces. We had gotten excited about pulled pork on the Traeger after watching Malcom Reed's video on his pulled pork. We cooked the pulled pork for almost 18 hours but it was worth the wait! Of course I love my sauces…
Tonight we didn't want to make something too elaborate or complicated. Luckily we had some pork chops from Alpine Butcher and some new seasonings that we wanted try! This meal brought together some things we already had in the house: spice rubs, green beans, naan bread and the pork chops. Of course if you wanted…
On week nights, I will admit that sometimes I really don't have the energy to make something too elaborate. However I also don't want to have any boring food either. Tonight we are bringing back an old favorite, Monday Night Roast Chicken. Back when I worked in the city, this recipe really kickstarted Mondays right.…
What a gorgeous spring day it was today. I took today off to enjoy the weather and spend some quality time with my husband while he has school vacation. To make it even better, we are making harpooned swordfish with Chimichurri. We are combining a few things tonight: Spanish marinade, chimichurri, and grilling. I will…
What is fun about cooking is that sometimes the most delicious meals don't need to be that complex. Our dinner tonight is ribeye steak from Alpine Butcher with butternut squash and asparagus. Now this might not sound like a lot but reverse seared in butter, garlic, and rosemary is transformative! Our steak obsession hasn't changed…
To say my husband is a fan of striped bass would be an understatement. I would say he is obsessed with the fish and everything about it. Usually when fishing season is about to begin all I hear about is the migration, how to cook the fish, him dreaming about actually catching a "keeper" (which…
Today I am excited to go back to an old favorite "Soy Lemon Garlic" Steak. It is technically called "Filipino-Style London Broil" which I learned after my husband sent me the recipe. Either way, the flavor is AMAZING. While the recipe says you can either do flank steak, sirloin, or top or bottom round -…
