Get Your Grill On

I can’t believe we are in the 9th week of “Rub of the Week”! Where have the last two months gone?
John requested a rub that incorporates ground nuts a couple weeks ago. I love a good challenge! I had hoped to have one tested that I could share this week. Unfortunately, I have not […]

Down in New Orleans that have this wonderful thing called Lagniappe. Lagniappe is “a little something extra” thrown in to sweeten a potential deal or to let a customer know they are appreciated. We all like extras when we can get them, so I’m going to share an easy way to get tons […]

Recipe from Smoke & Spice by Cheryl & Bill Jamison

Here’s some pictures from a recent Paul Kirk School of Pit Masters that was held on the Water Taxi Beach in Long Island City, Queens. It was sponsored by RUB Restaurant of Manhattan to benefit the St. Mark Sports Association of Sheepshead Bay Brooklyn. Sorry The […]

With Superbowl parties around the corner, here is a rub that will help all that beer go down even quicker… Buffalo wings have nothing on a great Jamaican Jerk wing! This rub will get you there. You can make them HOT – or just spicy. Either way, nothing goes better with beer and football. This […]

A new BBQ creation from my kitchen is BBQ Empanadas. My brother-in-law tried a few the last time he was over to our house, and called a couple days later to get the recipe. Well Randy, they are pretty simple. Here’s what you need.

- BBQ Sauce (optional)

One of our very hard working writers has taken the time to make live links for all our FBA nominees to make your voting much easier. I realize that the absence of hyperlinks has been an issue with the polls, but I was not able to find a poll that provided the IP blocking security […]
