Henny wings?! YES! Orange and cognac go together like up and down. Like Homer and D’oh! Like bacon and eggs. It’s really a fabulously delicious pairing, and if you haven’t tried it even in drink form, you’re about to receive a blessing. I’ve basically concocted a BBQ sauce version of the nifty pairing, that seriously …
This Peach Bourbon BBQ sauce is wonderful to have on hand at all times. Peaches go with bourbon and/or whiskey very well. I know it may be the start of Fall, but I don’t care. Grilling/BBQ season is all-year round for me, I crave that smokey flavor non-stop, I don’t care how cold it gets. …
Cod has always been one of my favorite proteins from the sea since I was a kid. I remember taking family trips to a now-extinct restaurant called Chesapeake Bay Seafood House, and they served this INSANELY good fried lemon-pepper cod. I got it every single dang time we went. I can literally still taste it and …
You’re going to love these lemony buttermilk fried shrimp! My heart breaks for folks who have seafood allergies. No, seriously. I am saddened for you guys. If you could measure seafood allergies by percentage, I myself am 5% allergic. I can eat fish, shellfish, mollusks, etc. The only thing that irritates me is the shell …
I’m admittedly a big kid, and maybe even a little childish when it comes to certain things. As a kid growing up, fish sticks were one of my favorite things in the world to eat. When my parents were at work, and I’d come home from school, making fish sticks in a toaster oven was …
This carrot cake with maple cream cheese frosting is one for the books! So freakin moist and perfectly sweetened. I absolutely love carrot cake, even the ones studded with plump juicy raisins. Yes! “I hate carrot cake” is often what I’m told by people who have no idea what good life is all about. A …
Shakshuka is seriously one of the best culinary creations ever. Some call it “Eggs in Purgatory“, you can call it whatever you want — as long as you make it, and eat it, and hug yourself afterwards. What is Shakshuka (or Shakshouka)? It’s essentially eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce. Sounds simple enough, right? It’s …
If you’re reading this, chances are you are a kitchen enthusiast — beginner or advanced, it really doesn’t matter. You love food, you love to eat, you probably love to cook. If you’re anything like me, you enjoy using different and new ingredients you’ve never heard of in your dishes, creating exciting new flavors and …
You could argue that “red velvet” is overrated, and honestly, in many ways I’d probably agree with you. However, when it comes to the classics, red velvet cake and cupcakes are here to stay. I’ve seen some strange things become unnecessary red velvet versions of themselves, and I mean hey, it’s the food world — …
You guys know I have a copycat Cheddar Bay Biscuit recipe already, and it’s really yummy — but it’s not entirely from scratch. Still great, but if you want an all-scratch completely homemade version, then you are in luck. This version really punches up the garlic and herb flavor, which I think makes these biscuits …
