Living in the country is both a blessing and a curse. It's nice being able to do whatever you want with your land when you want. The bad part is, everyone else does that, too. My neighbors (not direct neighbors, but someone along our road) have been popping off fireworks since June 13th. JUNE 13TH.… Continue reading BBQ Turkey Subs with Banana Pepper Slaw

Chicken Bacon Ranch Tortellini Salad
Labor Day is here and I'm, well, laboring. When I was a kid, my stepdad and I would use the extended weekend to work on projects around the house. Not like I WANTED to do that on a weekend off, but I did anyway. It's something that's stuck with me ever since then. I don't… Continue reading Chicken Bacon Ranch Tortellini Salad
BBQ Chicken with Peach Salsa
It's still 10 million degrees here on the surface of the sun---er, I mean OKLAHOMA. I wrote last week about how the grilling season was winding down, how pasta salad recipes will soon be replaced by crockpot meals, and how fall was right around the corner. WRONG. There's nothing but 90 degree temperatures in store… Continue reading BBQ Chicken with Peach Salsa
BBQ Chicken Salad
There's a great TikTok account that I follow called "Salad Lab". The woman makes famous salads everyday. The Kardashians favorite salads, the original Waldorf salad, Panera salads, etc. She'll include celebrity favorite salads--I think a few days ago it was Jennifer Lopez's favorite kale and queso salad. I get tons of inspiration from her account.… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Salad
Barbecue Black-Eyed Peas
If you're an avid cookbook collector like me, you will run across a recipe that will make you do a double take every so often. Whether that's a peanut butter and onion sandwich (a recipe I have actually spotted in a vintage cookbook) or a baked chicken recipe that is named after a First Lady,… Continue reading Barbecue Black-Eyed Peas
BBQ Chicken Tostadas
I swear, if I don't get a new oven sometime soon...I might lose my mind. I was CRAVING tostadas the other day and I've only ever made them in the oven. Sure, you can get the pre-made tostada shells (which is what I did) but how the heck are you going to melt the cheese… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Tostadas
BBQ Cheeseburger Stuffed Potatoes
When you're broke, packing, and starving where do you turn? POTATOES. Potatoes fill the void like no other. They're cheap, filling, and extremely versatile. We've been munching on potatoes for the last several weeks while we scrounge every penny to buy our first house. Tired of mashed potatoes, baked potatoes and fries? There is another… Continue reading BBQ Cheeseburger Stuffed Potatoes
Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
Let's face it: this Memorial Day weekend will not be like any we've had before. Sure, it's the first signal of summer, but kids have been home for the last 3 months. Summer seems like it started in March this year because of the pandemic. Not only that, but you can rule out any large… Continue reading Quarantine Cuisine: 20 Recipes for a Memorial Day in Lockdown
BBQ Pineapple Pork Chops
Pork has gotten so inexpensive lately. I bought a nearly 3-pound pack of sirloin pork chops the other day for $4.50. Name another meat you can get for that price. Go ahead. I'll wait. Beef is about that for 1 pound, more if you're getting better cuts. I can't hardly find chicken breast for less… Continue reading BBQ Pineapple Pork Chops
Lady Bird Johnson’s Barbecue Chicken
I've been bed-and-couch bound for the last 36 hours. A cold has hit me like a ton of bricks and I've been doing everything in my power to feel like a normal human being again. You know those jokes about how men are babies when they're sick? That's not just men. It's me. I turn… Continue reading Lady Bird Johnson’s Barbecue Chicken
