Honey, something stinks...

Julie called me at work this morning...
(which she never does unless it's important)
"Honey, did you run over a skunk when you left this morning?"

No...why?

"Because the house stinks..." (oh great, that's all we need)
Seems that we have an unwanted pet on the premises...
Mr. or Mrs. Skunk.

Something pissed Mr. or Mrs. Skunk off, and retaliation was in order. Our house (somehow was caught up in this retaliation...) Lucky us...
This is personal now...

I'm going to call the EPA.
(Eradicate Personal Annoyances)

As Bugs Bunny would say, "This...means war."

Trawler's Crab Dip

1 can (6 oz) White meat crab (or fresh)
1 cup Mayonnaise
4 Tbsp. French dressing
1 Tbsp. prepared Horseradish
1 cup mild Cheddar cheese, finely grated

Mix all ingredients well.
Chill several hours.
Serve with Club crackers.


Manhattan Meatballs

1 pound ground beef
1 pound mild pork sausage
2 cups bread crumbs
2 eggs
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons dry parsley
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

Sauce:
1 jar apricot preserves (12 oz)
1/2 cup barbecue sauce

Mix first 8 ingredients together and form meatballs. You may brown in a skillet or in an oven at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. Heat sauce, and pour over meatballs. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or cook in crock pot. You can serve over rice or as an appetizer with toothpicks.


Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings

4 pounds chicken wings
3 tablespoons cooking oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1/4 pound blue cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)
2 scallions including green tops, chopped
5 teaspoons vinegar
1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
8 ribs celery, cut into sticks

Heat the oven to 425°. In a large bowl, combine the wings, oil, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt, and the cayenne. Arrange the wings in a single layer on two large baking sheets. Bake until just done, about 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium glass or stainless-steel bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, blue cheese, scallions, 1 teaspoon of the vinegar, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper.

In a large bowl, combine the ketchup, the remaining 4 teaspoons vinegar, and the Tabasco sauce. Add the wings and toss to coat. Serve the wings with the celery sticks and blue-cheese dressing alongside.


Roasted Red Pepper Dip

You can make this creamy dip more quickly by substituting 2/3 cup of drained jarred roasted red peppers or smoky jarred roasted jalapeño peppers.

2 medium red bell peppers
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon finely chopped basil
Salt and freshly ground pepper

(If using store bought, skip this step)

Roast the peppers over a gas flame or under the broiler until charred all over. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 20 minutes. Discard the skins, cores and seeds. Pat the peppers dry and finely chop them.

In a skillet, cook the garlic in the oil over moderate heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the peppers and vinegar and cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until dry, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Stir in the sour cream and basil and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled. The dip can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.


Orange-Glazed Chicken Wings

1 cup fresh orange juice (from about 2 oranges)
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
4 pounds chicken wings

Heat the oven to 400. In a large bowl, combine the orange juice, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat.

On two large baking sheets, arrange the wings in a single layer. Reserve 1/4 cup of the orange mixture and spoon the rest of the mixture over the wings. Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the wings over and baste them with the reserved orange mixture. Cook until just done, about 10 minutes longer.

(This is Julie's recipe for Sausage Pinwheels)

Sausage Pinwheels

1 lb bulk sausage (mild or hot - whichever you prefer)
1 lg pkg cream cheese
Crescent rolls

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.Set the cream cheese out at room temperature (it's easier to mix with the sausage). Brown the sausage and drain thoroughly (with paper towels)

Combine the cream cheese and the sausage in a mixing bowl. Mix together with your hands (it's much easier than using a spoon).Separate the crescent rolls along the perforations onto a cookie sheet. Take each 'roll' and cut it diagonally to make 2 separate triangles.

Using a spoon, place some of the sausage and cream cheese mixture onto each triangle. Use as much or as little as you like. Maybe a 'dollop' size. Fold the edges of the triangle to the center so that it looks like a child's pinwheel. (I'm not too sure these actually look like pinwheels but I didn't come up with the recipe.)

Bake at 375 for the amount of time that the crescent roll pkg states. Usually 9-11 minutes.One pkg of the 8 count crescent rolls makes 16 pinwheels. The mixture would probably make up to 50 pinwheels, depending on how much you put on each triangle.

Steak & Soup

Here are a couple of recipes given to me by the lovely Miss Peggy Sue.

One is for fancy steak (you go girl) and the other is for soup.
I found another version of the soup recipe, so I'll just post both of them.

"Thanks Miss Sue"

Fried Okra & Julie's gravity defying mashed potatoes.
Lovely...and yummy (I might add)

The weather around here has gone full tilt... "Nuts."

Let it Snow...

Yes, we have snow...
It started raining about 7 o'clock last night, and rained all night, and all day today.
Now we have snow, the temp. went from 55 to 35 in a matter of a few hours.

You know, the world seems different when it snows.
It seems to be at peace.
It is...wonderful and silent.

Peace and silence.
Let it snow...

Happy B-day Robyn

Today is the birthday of the little girl that came into our world four years ago. "Happy Birthday Robyn"
As the old saying goes "Let them eat cake" Woo-Hoo!!!

On a sad note...
My boys lost yesterday.
I had a feeling the Colts would get knocked out of the playoffs. (sigh...)
But so did New England, so no 'three in a row' for them.

On the brighter side...
I got to see "my girls" last night, it's always a pleasure to see these lovely ladies.

What's on for today? I might go and see if I can find another Dogwood, and plant it before the rain comes in.

Enjoy your day!!!

Friday (the bad day)

Today is...well I don't have to tell you the date...
What's so bad about this day?

Many reasons are given about this day, some are taboo, some are superstition, and some are just plain dumb. Does this day bother me? Hell no...it's Friday, Woo-Hoo!!!

Start the weekend...

And speaking of the weekend, it's going to be cold and windy around here this weekend. Oh well, that's par for January.

Steve of Ole Smokey's BBQ (one of my links) sent this joke to me, and I thought I would share it with you. "Thanks Ole Smokey"

Try to stay warm...
( I got my gas bill today...I could throw one hell of a keg party for that price)

A husband was in big trouble when he forgot his wife's birthday. His wife told him, "Tomorrow there'd better be something in the driveway for me that goes zero to 200 in 2 seconds flat."

The next morning the wife found a small package on the driveway...When she opened the package, she found a brand new bathroom scale.

Funeral arrangements for the husband have been set for Saturday.

Arkansas Slow-Smoked Ham

One 6-to-7-pound cooked bone-in ham
1 cup ketchup
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup bourbon or water
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 cups wood chips (use Hickory or Pecan chips)

Sauce Directions: In medium saucepan combine ketchup, onion, honey, vinegar, bourbon or water, mustard, lemon juice, thyme, garlic and red pepper flakes. Bring to a hot simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes or until desired consistency, stirring frequently. Divide sauce into two portions; set aside.

Ham Directions: At least 1 hour before grilling, soak wood chips in enough water to cover; drain before using. In charcoal grill with cover, place preheated coals around a drip pan for medium-low indirect heat. Sprinkle half of the wood chips over the coals.

Place ham on the grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, until internal temperature (measured with a meat thermometer) is 140 degrees F., basting with one portion of sauce the last 15 minutes. Add more preheated coals(use a hibachi or a metal chimney starter to preheat coals) and wood chips halfway through grilling.

Remove ham from grill. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Reheat second portion of sauce and serve with ham.

*Note: For gas grills, preheat and then turn off any burners directly below where the food will go. The heat circulates inside the grill, so turning the food is not necessary.


Armadillo Eggs

1/2 pound Monterey Jack Cheese
1/2 pound Cheddar Cheese
1/2 pound bulk hot sausage
1 1/2 cup Bisquick Mix
1 to 2 Tablespoons of Water
15-20 canned jalapeno peppers (do not rinse)
1 egg
1 package Shake & Bake (pork flavored)

Grate both kinds of cheese and mix together. Then, divide in half. Set aside one portion. Mix together the second portion of cheese mixture, raw sausage and Bisquick mix with 1 to 2 tablespoons of water. Knead until still dough is formed.

Stuff each pepper with remaining cheese. Pinch pepper together to seal.
Then, pinch off a bit of dough mixture and pat into a pancake approximately 1/4" thick. Place stuffed pepper in middle and roll in hand to form egg shape.

Roll each ball in beaten egg and then in Shake and Bake.
Bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes. (These may be frozen ahead of time, and then re-heated.)


Campfire Beans

2 slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1 medium Vidalia onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup molasses
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1 pound dried small white beans, rinsed and picked through
9 cups chicken stock
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Using a crock pot set on low heat, combine bacon, onion, molasses, brown sugar, mustard, beans, chicken stock and vinegar. Cover pot and bake beans, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 4 to 6 hours. Season with salt and pepper.

Weekend Report

Question: How do you get rid of a tree that you didn't want to get rid of ?

Answer: Have an out of control vehicle plow through your yard and mow it down. Yes that's right, that's what happened Friday.

Luckily no one was hurt (except my poor Dogwood Tree)

What happened was someone had a seizure while driving and hit the ditch coming into the neighborhood veering wide right, going through Lot #1 proceeding toward Lot #2, which at this point they hit the sidewalk of Lot #2 (fortunately for us) and continued on through Lot #3 (our house), now why I said fortunately for us is because if they had not hit the raised sidewalk causing them to veer left, they would have hit our house close to the front door.

But by veering left they just took out my Dogwood and proceeded through the next yard, and the next yard, (messing up freshly laid Sod) and finally coming to rest (on its side) after clipping a guide wire from a power pole and taking out another poor defenseless tree.

The driver was taken by Life Flight to the hospital and the State Trooper said they were OK but didn't remember anything.

In the mean time, my poor Dogwood lost its life...
It will be a sad day today.

B.D. goes for broke

At this time - this is Mrs. B.D. reporting and bringing you news of what B.D. did Wednesday night, bowling night. He started out bad with 3 splits in a row but recovered nicely and shot a 194. The second game he paid more attention to what he was doing and shot a 259. He had about 7 strikes in a row to finish that game off. Then he comes back the 3rd game and strikes all the way up to the last ball in the 10th frame and he throws it just a wee bit high and leaves the 4 pin to bowl a 299. Woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kudos to you B.D.!!!!!!! My hero!!!!! What a bowling machine!!!! (when he's got enough beer in him!)

Just thought the readers of the Grill would like to know.

Have a great day and drink one for B.D.

Mid - Week Report

I hope everyone has recovered from the beginning of the new year. If not, that must have been some party. We treated it like any other day (or night)

We didn't party, we just hung out and watched TV.
I'm not the party animal I once was...(sigh)

Life is good...
