Basic Pellet Smoker Chicken
One of my blog followers just got a pellet smoker. They have little cooking experience and asked me for a basic, no fuss recipe for cooking a whole chicken. Continue reading Basic Pellet Smoker Chicken
Hawaiian Hamburger Jerky
I don’t make a lot of ground meat jerky. It isn’t that it doesn’t taste great but it just doesn’t have the great chew of jerky from sliced meat. It is just softer and less chewy. Continue reading Hawaiian Hamburger Jerky

Reverse Sear Tri Tip
