She Who Must Be Obeyed picked up a nice small wild Sockeye Salmon fillet. We were busy (it was suggested I was lazy but that is crazy). I was instructed she wanted it done on the smoker. Normally, that would involve brining and a long cold smoke. I decided to just give it a rub and smoke it at a low temperature. Continue reading Easy Smoked Salmon
Smoking chicken thighs present a problem if you are cooking them at low heat. If you cook them over 350 F, the skin crisps up. Below that, the skin tends to get rubbery.

Every once in a while, something happens that just improves your mood. I have been suffering from a bad cold for a week and feel terrible. I am in withdrawal from cooking. Then I got some great news.
I have listed a great blog from someone I admire in my blog roll, Foodie Home Chef. In addition to making great food, she has an artists flare for her photography. She has posted a picture of a pastrami sandwich that is work of art! She was also kind enough to give a nod to my PWE Pastrami post. It is a great honour to have someone this talented mention you. Thanks!

Most muffins you buy are large and cake like. They are closer to a dessert than a snack or quick breakfast. I like smaller old fashioned muffins. However, some people don’t go for the healthy bran muffins or the like. Continue reading Oatmeal Haskap (Blueberry) Muffins
