My Grandfather’s Ham Barbecue Recipe

  • by

This is my grandfathers recipe for Chipped Ham Barbecue. Chipped Ham is extremely thin sliced ham from the butcher or meat department at your local supermarket thats a big staple of Pittsburgh. It’s almost like a Sloppy Joe except the meat isn’t ground up like a chili. You’ll want to get regular or smoked ham, not the maple or flavored kind as it will throw off the taste. Finding chipped ham is easy, you can usually just ask the butcher or deli for them slice it on the smallest setting they have.

Pork Chops with Celery Sauce

  • by

I seen a similar recipe the other day while browsing online and it seemed like it might be worth a try. The local store had some good prices on chops so I grabbed a few and whipped this up. I thought it was pretty easy and has a ton of flavor that is different from the usual pork chops you find in restaurants.

Cranberried Chicken

With some extra cranberry sauce leftover from Thanksgiving and some chicken breast, I tried out this recipe that I seen online and really liked the twist of flavors. The sauce would be great on shrimp too or even as a dip for chips and pretzels.

Austrailian Beer Sauce

  • by

I seen this recipe a while ago and decided to try it this weekend. Super easy to make, this sauce is perfect for grilled chicken, steaks and seafood. I had it on the side burner of my grill on low and let it reduce down which made for a great glaze as I was finishing up the chicken wings.

I’ve found a bunch of recipes so now that I’ve had some time, I wanted to post some up. This sauce goes great with fried shrimp. It’s a smooth, sweet fresh glaze that you can also use for a baste on salmon on the grill.

Hot Soy Mustard Sauce

  • by

Here’s a new sauce I tried this week that is a great spin for grilled fish or chicken. You can forgo the chili oil if you want something without any heat but I had to boost it up a bit. I used this as a baste on the grill and it had an awesome flavor that is really fresh and exciting. It can also be used as a dip with some fried wontons or white corn tortilla chips.  Mix about 2 Tablespoons of this with the juice of 4-5 limes to make a great marinade that works on any meat.

Easy Mushroom Gravy

Here’s a great flavorful gravy that goes awesome with rice, chicken, steak, fries and even pizza! It’s not the fastest sauce to make but it really is worth the wait. You can make up a good amount of this too for super cheap which is a win-win situation.

Orange Sauce

This sauce is really tasty with fish and chicken. You can use it as a baste when you’re grilling to give a lot of fresh flavor to white fish. It takes about 15 minutes to make so it’s something that you want to make up before you start cooking any meat or veggies.
