I have been trying to figure out how to make a quick and delicious meal that is not too fattening. Yeah, I know. The man that brought you 19 types of pizza, poutine, chicken fried bacon and chocolate covered bacon is trying to cut back a bit. So I decided to tackle my favorite fast…
As a bartender I always needed a go to drink for people that didn’t like alcohol, but wanted to get a buzz. This drink has great flavor, masks alcohol very well and comes in a bright red package. This adds the best part of drinking to the traditional non-alcoholic drink. Vodka!!
Sorry about my lack of posts over the weekend. I thought I had enough prepared for my trip to Memphis. Unfortunately, I fell short. However, I have great news about my first trip to Memphis. I traveled to Memphis with the guys for Pork Barrel BBQ to compete in the annual Memphis in May Contest. …
This weekend is jam packed with events – everything from the Taste of Arlington and Taste of Wheaton to the Joint Service Open House and Airshow. It is a great weekend. Who doesn’t love an airshow? I am going to be at Memphis in May this weekend with the guys from Pork Barrel BBQ. We are…
The other day, Dana and I were walking through the store and she wanted Egg Salad Sandwiches. However, she wanted them on small cocktail bread. She said it was something that her Grandma would always make. Who was I to say no. So, we made little egg salad sliders. I made a few open faced sliders and…

This past weekend Nick from Macheesmo came over to grill out. I grilled, he grilled and we ate incredibly well. One of my courses was Salmon with Mango Salsa. Perfectly grilled salmon with a fresh salsa over the top. It does not get any better than that. Plus, this post is my world wide debut…
Last week I made Chipotle Peach Chicken. It was awesome and as soon as I tasted the barbecue sauce I realized that it would be an amazing hot wing sauce. So I fine tuned it and made some wings. I must admit that it was awesome. The wings have a little heat on the front…
It is a beautiful day in DC. The sun is shining and it is going to hit the high 70’s. Tomorrow is supposed to be sketchy, but it is going to be sunny and warm for Mother’s Day. Yeah, Sunday is Mother’s Day. You have two more days to get a card and book brunch….
The other day I was searching for something to grill. Then I found some chipotle peppers in my pantry. It was on. I was going to make a BBQ sauce and cook up some chicken. The sweetness of the peach would hopefully offset the heat and smokiness from the chipotles. It was a huge hit.
Happy Cinco de Mayo!! In honor of Cinco de Mayo I decided to do a little list of my favorite south of the border recipes. Since this is Cocktail Wednesday the first has to be a refreshing beverage. Nothing starts off a good Cinco de Mayo like a Margarita!! The Margarita
