Dr. Hall's smoked ribs recipe

With all the drama in the world, I needed a project. I decided to buy a smoker and smoke up some ribs. It took a total of 6 hours but it was well worth it. Long ago I got this rub recipe from Alton Brown but I always add my own flair. For the benefit of a recipe I provided teaspoon/tablespoon measurements, but really I eyeball everything but the brown sugar. These ribs come out tender, sweet, and savory. I love them. You will always have more rub left over than you need. Keep it in a jar for the next time you make pork. Since I know this is the first of many smoked foods, I will be returning to the recipe again. It is a pretty amazing rub.   Kitchen tools Good sharp knife & cutting board Bowl & Fork Tongs & smoker gloves Tinfoil A Smoker A mix of hickory and applewood chips, (the kind of chips isn’t as important, but having chips is important.   A spray bottle with 2 cups water & one tablespoon Apple cider Vinegar Basting liquid of apple juice & apple cider vinegar

Recipe: Dr. Hall's "Doing the Most" Chili

Everyone has a Chili recipe, and I am no exception. Below is my recipe for "Doing the Most" Chili. The most time is spent chopping up things and waiting on things to saute/ brown. Once it is in the crockpot you walk away and live your life until the timer goes off. I cook like this all the time so its nothing to me. I forgot to take photos. I will come back and add those later when I reheat the chili this week for lunch or dinner. I only cook with ground turkey but you could totally use ground beef for this recipe. This recipe makes enough for several meals. Boil up some spaghetti noodles if you have kids and want to stretch it even further!

Review: The Sleepy Bee

Review: Quarter Barrel

Today's Choice was Quarter Barrel Brewery & Pub: Lunch with the girls landed us in a ritzy little gastropub with good grub and a little bit of class. I have to say, after a hiatus, it is good to be back.
