And then it happened; I seriously craved pork. And kabobs, especially those with a warm, oriental flavor. Add some fruit and red onion, delicious. You’d be hard-pressed to find pork in Moroccan cuisine, so obviously you can make this with lamb or chicken as well. Pork, kinda like lamb, is irresistible when seeped in fragrant spices such as cinnamon, caraway and cardamom. Peaches aren’t in season, so I just opened…
Here’s one for when you get tired of my other sausage recipes (Lazy Sunday casserole or beef sausages & balsamic tomatoes). It’s every bit as good. Nothing fancy or extravagant: just a fast one-pot sausage stew that is perfect for a weeknight dinner and a breeze when you plan ahead. I used my Big Green Egg for it because I wanted to give it a hint of that wonderful smokey…
Pork chops. What’s there to say about pork chops? When cooked right, I like them a lot, especially my honey thyme chops or this easy stir-fry. They’re a great cut of meat but also very unforgiving—it’s real easy to mess them up and you end up with dried out pieces of leather.

The more the better, but that’s just me. The veggies really influence the flavor of the sauce. Carrots will add sweetness, roast the pepper and you’ll get a hearty and slightly smoky flavor, or add some celery…
This ain’t your average cheeseburger, that’s for sure. It’s BBQ season! Finally the snow’s gone and it’s time to get your BBQ on! We fired up the pit. I seasoned the burgers, stuffed them with mozzarella and slapped them on the BGE. Grilled a few Roma tomatoes and onion slices while I was at it, mainly to get them as sweet and tasty as possible. I topped the burgers with the…
