Basic Gravy Recipe

  • by
The other day, I did a chicken on the rotisserie, which is a great way to cook a healthy meal as all the fat drips right off and away from the meat, drippings which make for an excellent gravy that’s quick and easy to make. Mashed potatoes go great with barbecue chicken, so I decided to whip up some quick gravy with what I had in the cupboard.  You can sub-out the chicken drippings for beef or pork to make fresh gravy any time and you can see how easy it is to make once you know the basics. Use this recipe to help you make gravy for the first time.

Honey Bacon Habanero Glazed Wings

You can never go wrong with Hot Wings, the hotter the better.  I seen a recipe where they coat the wings in a spicy, light breading before being glazed with the sticky hot sauce. These wings are coated in a paprika spice blend, then glazed with Honey Habanero sauce, and finished with crisp cooked bacon.

Siracha Powder

  • by

So I just seen this technique to make your own Sriracha powder.  Basically it’s just dehydrating the Sriracha until it clumps together and then you can crush it up to give you a super intense powder that goes well on top of everything.  It does get very spicy as all the water is removed from the sauce leaving it extremely concentrated.

Shredded Kalua Pork

True Kalua Pork is cooked in a really neat way.  It’s done by building an underground fire-pit then placing rocks in the fire to allow them to heat up.  The after seasoning a pig and wrapping it with Banana and Ti Leaves, its buried in the pit and left for 6-12 hours until the meat is cooked and tender.  Then it’s shredded to allow the flavors to blend and served. This recipe is how most commercial restaurants cook their Kalua Pork without the need for a large fire pit.

Spicy Pickled Garlic

Garlic is by far my favorite thing in the world next to Bacon, this is a way to pickle up some Spicy Garlic that will last for about a month in the ‘fridge.  I like to add about a tablespoon of Ghost Pepper Powder, which is way more than most people like, it’s a ton of heat, but it makes for a great one Garlic popper snack.

Spicy Garlic Croutons

My favorite snack of all time has got to be croutons. When I worked at Armstrong’s, they used to make their own fresh ones everyday and I would go thru them by the handful.  They’re really easy to make and they last for about 2 weeks. I’ll prob add some other crouton recipes I have, because let’s face it, you can never have too many croutons.
