Get Your Grill On

It’s been a while, but I’m back! I’ve just added a new cooker to my arsenal. I actually traded in my original Kamado on a new large Big Green Egg. And I’m eggcited about it! I’ve already done a couple of cooks. This thing can smoke low and slow, or […]

Father’s Day was this past weekend and we decided to splurge a little bit. Costco had wild sea scallops available for $9.99 a lb and my daughter and I bought some for me to cook for my special dinner. What? You cooked your own meal on Father’s Day? Yup, I sure did. It was one […]

I was asked recently by my cousin to “barbeque” the chicken for her party. She has a Weber kettle, so I thought I would actually “Q” it, but what she really wanted was for me to grill the food. After explaining the differences of grilling vs. barbecue, we inevitably got into the classic wood vs. […]

Such a nice introduction to a new year. It’s been icy cold in the mornings, the excitement of the holidays has past (thank goodness) and the new year is … well new. A great time to sit back, relax and see what happens next.
Uh, that would be in invite from Chilebrown to an afternoon of […]

… what a master BBQ class is like?
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 […]
