What's cooking?

Saw a YouTube video on smoked Stuffed Peppers the other day which i always enjoyed growing up.  I don't think I had had one in over twenty years though.  The wife wasn't too thrilled with the idea but ended up really enjoying it.  Next time, I'll try a Tex-Mex smoked pepper using poblano instead of bell peppers

Jason, those look delicious.  I haven't had a stuffed pepper or stuffed tomato in years and I'm not sure why as I really like them.  Glad your wife likes them, too.

Thanks Freddy!  I've never had a stuffed tomato but my wife LOVES tomatos.  Any good tips for tomato stuffings?  If I can make those as a surprise for her, she may actually fall in love me all over again

Honestly, I have never made them, just eaten them.  (I'm really good at that. )

Here is a recipe I found on the internet that looks easy and good: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/18248/...-tomatoes/

By the way, I agree with your wife; I love tomatoes.  In fact, I always nosh on one or two small ones (such as cherry or compari tomates) while waiting for dinner to finish cooking.

Smoked up some Cajun chicken thighs today

I love chicken thighs!

I love chicken thighs!

Me too. My preferred piece of chicken is the thighs.

I was recently sent an email that showed a real advertisement for chicken thighs being at a sale price, but only back legs. You can't make this stuff up.

4th of July BBQ Spareribs 

BBQ... for years I didn't do any BBQ brisket because where we shop sells trimmed brisket for $10/lb. I think that's outrageous and I'm not paying that for brisket. I can buy a rib eye for that. I really dislike our Super WalMart but we were in there today and I asked about the availability and price. They had no packers anywhere, but have some coming in and the price was less than 1/2 of where we shop. That works for me. BBQ brisket is back on the menu! So are home made hot dogs! I was working on that recipe when things got out of hand pricewise. Looks like I'm going to start buying from WalMart. Vote with my wallet.
