There is great barbecue everywhere. So I decided to bring some Asian tastes into some rub and sauce by combining them with classic barbecue flavours. Welcome to East West Chicken Thighs. Continue reading East West Chicken Thighs
Sausage Balls
Sausage Balls are an appetizer that has been around for years. It involves mixing sausage with biscuit mix and baking it. They are very tasty but also very greasy and they mostly taste of sausage. This is my effort to make a less greasy version and to kick up the complexity of the flavours. Continue reading Sausage Balls
ShawTV Episode 16 “You Can Make It” – Barbecued Ribs, Crangria and Candied Salmon
Episode 16 of my ShawTV East Kootenay community TV show you can make it shows me making Barbecued Spareribs, Crangria and Candied Salmon!

Crangria
Times have changed. Dinner parties used to have cocktails, wine and beer. Now, there are people who don’t drink at all and others refrain from drinking to be designated drivers.

3-2-1 Spareribs
There are two basic results for good barbecued ribs, fall of the bone and bite off the bone where you can bite the meat and it pulls from the bone but doesn’t fall off.

However, making fall of the bone ribs with the 3-2-1 method is a perfect way for beginner barbecue users to learn to make great ribs. I wanted to do some ribs for my ShawTV East Kootenays Community TV program, “You Can Make It”. 3-2-1 ribs were my choice for the shoot. Continue reading 3-2-1 Spareribs

Quick Glazed Salmon
Getting a nice piece of wild salmon is difficult and expensive here in the mountains. You can get small frozen fillet pieces. She Who Must Be Obeyed loves salmon so I do what I can. Continue reading Quick Glazed Salmon
