Wings on the BESRG
OK, getting closer to perfection! For this cook I cooked on high the entire time. I used the upper shelves, but next time I will try the bottom. Dried wings uncovered in the refrigerator overnight. Then dried them off with a paper towel. A light coat of Olive Oil,...
Melt-In-Your-Mouth Italian Meatballs
These easy oven-baked Italian meatballs are incredibly tender and juicy with irresistible flavors that will have you craving for more. Made with ground beef, onion, garlic, parmesan cheese, and parsley, these meatballs are seasoned to perfection and ready to be served...
Pulled Pork on the Big Easy SRG
My first pulled pork on the BESRG and it was AWESOME! The dry rub that I used had way too many ingredients, so I won’t waste my time posting them. I will search for something more simple next time. Also for this cook I could not have picked a windier day. So the...
Pork Ribs on the Big Easy
First ribs on the Big Easy were awesome! First I peeled the membrane from the backside. (Margo had already cut these in half before I started). I then cut a slit in between the first and second rib for the hanger. Hung them on the basket (meat side towards the...
Chick-fil-A Sauce
Better than plain old honey mustard sauce. This is great! You will need: 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 tsp mustard 1 tsp lemon juice 2 tbs honey 1 tbs smokey barbecue sauce Mix all ingredients together and enjoy!
Prime Rib in the Big Easy
This was my first cook on the Big Easy SRG. And while it was not perfect, it was AWESOME! Leave the bone in and leave the fat on. Salt heavily and leave in refrigerator for a least a couple of hours. Let it sit out and warm before cooking. At least 2 hours. So after...
Sugar Glazed Pecans
This are nice to have around during the holidays. Also nice to give out as little gifts. You will need: 1 egg white 2 tsp water 2 tsp pure vanilla extract 1 lb pecan halves 1 cup sugar 1 tbsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp salt Preheat the oven to 250°. Spray a baking sheet...
Crab Cakes
Crabs are good no matter how you eat them! Margo prefers the easy and least messy ways. And crab cakes are both! You will need: 1 lb jumbo lump crab meat 1 egg 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard 1 1/2 tsp Old Bay 1 tsp fresh lemon juice 1/2 tsp Worcestershire...
Cornbread
On a cool day there is nothing quite like a bowl of chili and some good old fashion cornbread! You will need: 1 cup flour 1 cup yellow cornmeal 2/3 cup white sugar 1 tsp salt 3 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 egg 1 cup milk 1/3 cup vegetable oil Preheat oven to 400 degrees....
Slippery Dumplings
One of the best things about being married is being introduced to new foods. I had never tried dumplings, but Margo made them and I like them! Now we eat them regularly. You will need: 2 cups flour 2 tsps baking powder 1/4 tsp salt 3 tbs shortening 1/2 cup chicken...
Cajun Potato Soup
We love soups and chili in the winter. We started looking for a soup that was like the Zuppa at Olive Garden. We felt that it needed to be “kicked up a notch” as Emeril would say! So we kept looking until we came upon this spicier version! Margo mixes half...
Tammy’s West Virginia Chili Dogs
This is evidently a gourmet delight in West Virginia! LOL That is where Margo first had one and has been making them ever since. You will need: 1 1/2 lb ground beef 3/4 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 1 1/2 tsp chili powder 1 cup water 1/2...
Grilled Kabobs
I never had kabobs before Margo. Now I can’t get enough of them! The nice thing is that you can put anything on them that you have or like. We used to put Sweet Baby Ray’s sauce on them towards the end. It was OK, but I always thought that something else...
The Perfect Steak
The perfect steak is different things to different people. To me it is rare and juicy on the inside and a little charred on the outside. I am shooting for a reverse seared steak. For this try I used a rib eye. Margo will only eat filet, so I may have to adjust when...About the Cooks
Margo and Bob have been cooking together since 1996. Margo, of course, is the queen of the kitchen!
