Last weekend Nick from Macheesmo came over for a great day of grilling. We ate like kings. The first dish of the day was grilled lobster rolls. Every once in a while you will find lobster on sale. Who would have thunk it. However, I got a great deal, two 5oz lobster tails for $5.99. …
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…
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.

The gist of the competition is that there are six food bloggers, two featured ingredients and whole lot of glory. The featured ingredients for this Foodie Fight are peas and ginger. As soon…
The other day I wanted something sweet and Dana suggested those little sugar cookies with jam in the middle. Then it hit me, I had a ton of Strawberry Jam in the freezer from when my parents visited. This would be the perfect combination. Strawberry Jam Cookies. Check out the Strawberry Jam post for some…
There is a little pizza restaurant in DC called Matchbox that makes pretty darn good pizzas. Although they are known more for their sliders than their pizza, they make a pretty mean pie. My favorite is the Fire and Smoke pizza. It is a mixture of spicy and smokey ingredients that play together to make…
The other week I was coming back from Pork in the Park when we stopped at a Sonic Drive-in. I love Sonic. The food is delicious and the drinks are amazing. I am a huge fan of the cherry limeade. After taking a few sips, you realize that it would be amazing with alcohol. So…
The other day I was strolling through the local Super Market when I came across an amazing loaf of Challah bread. I knew I had to make something with it. So I decided to make my favorite French Toast for dinner. Who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner. Plus, a little brown sugar and Cinnamon to…
I am a huge fan of pizza. Every once in a while I will go out and have a slice to see what toppings are popular. I stopped by a local pizzeria and had a spinach mushroom and goat cheese pizza. It was awesome and instantly knew I would have to recreate this for the…
The other day I was in a rush and I stopped by the local supermarket to pick up something fast. A little dish called tamale pie caught my eye. Basically it was a chili topped with cornbread topping. It was delicious, so I decided to make one of my own. I made a quick chili…
A steak is just a steak until you add sides. Then the steak turns into a meal. Everyone always focuses on the main entree, but fails to put any thought into the supporting cast. A good side can elevate an OK meal to a great meal. For this reason, I like to focus on side…

Cold brew coffee is brewed slowly and creates a nice smooth bitter-less coffee concentrate. Therefore, I wanted to create a cocktail…
