I had some nice meaty beef ribs and was about to do them in a normal 3-2-1 cook when my brain had a spasm. I wanted burnt ends. Why couldn’t finish my ribs like burnt ends? I couldn’t think of a good reason so I did! Continue reading Burnt End Beef Ribs
I had posted my Memphis Rib Recipe previously. This is a video of me making them!

I make most of my dishes from scratch, including Jerky. However, there are commercial products out there that are of a high quality and give a great result. Hi Mountain Jerky mixes are one of those products. Continue reading Hi Mountain Bourbon BBQ Blend Jerky
Before I begin this post, I humbly apologize to every Cuban or person of Cuban heritage. I love this style of cooking but a lot of the ingredients are not available here in the Canadian Rockies. For example I noted some recipes call for a sour orange. Therefore, this is my homage to the style and flavour profile but is in no way authentic Cuban food. If you haven’t had Cuban cuisine, seek it out. It is wonderful! Continue reading Cuban Pork Loin
I like to golf. She Who Must Be Obeyed says I golf too much. Sigh. When I golf, I find myself getting peckish around the 11th hole and I like to have something in my bag. Snack Sticks are the perfect solution. Continue reading Spicy Snack Sticks
I have made maple bacon and I have made Chipotle (ground dried smoked chilies). Both are really good. However, I got an email from my niece telling me how much she enjoyed the Chipotle bacon while I was eating some maple bacon. As usual, my brain had a spasm and I thought the two might be great together. I like the combination of sweet/hot. I had to give it a try. I decided to go with Back (Canadian) Bacon and picked up a pork loin. Continue reading Maple Chipotle Bacon
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 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
Episode 16 of my ShawTV East Kootenay community TV show you can make it shows me making Barbecued Spareribs, Crangria and Candied Salmon!

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. As She Who Must Be Obeyed likes bite of the bone, that is what I usually make. 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
