There was much deliberation over this chili! We had to ask ourselves, “What do we like most about chili?” – the consensus, meat. Our meat to bean ratio is 3-1. Our three meats are as follows: lean ground beef (93/7), bratwurst for fat content, and stew beef for great meaty texture.
Happy October! It’s been a little while since we’ve posted a recipe, but we always get inspired by the joy the fall season brings. For us, it’s a good reason to get nice and cozy, light a candle, put on a good movie like “You’ve Got Mail” and settle in.
The sweet, salty, meaty, pull-away-from-the-bone bite is what we seek. Grilling, like cooking, shouldn’t be intimidating. Usually, every family has that one person trusted to do all the grilling.
I was watching a television show the other day where they were talking about how keen humans’ sense of smell is and how it relates so closely to our memories.
Quinn and I spent a lot of weekends over at Grandma and Granddaddy Carlton’s house. If we were not allowed to do something at home, you best believe our imaginations were welcomed to run wild at Grandma’s.
There are those certain images/moments in your mind that you picture when you’re having a bad day. Everyone has their “happy place” – the place they go in their mind when feeling anxious, unsure, the news is scary, you got a speeding ticket, or maybe it’s just one of those days you need an unwarranted smile.
We hope you can join us while we prepare this tasty bite al fresco while listening to Marshall Tucker, or maybe even a little Leon! Because today is a special day, today is Daddy’s day.
I think we’ve made it pretty clear that our Mama, Mama Alice, is an amazing cook. As I was watching the movie, Julie & Julia for the 100th time last night, it came to me that although Mama’s food tastes delicious, it’s more about how it makes us feel.
Summer isn’t summer without a sugary-sweet Southern staple: Vidalia Onions. Currently, we are in the peak of their season and to relish this celebratory moment, we have just the fix!
There was one day out of every summer where our Grandmother Pate, Mama, Paten and I would solely dedicate to shucking summer corn.
Our daddy is “the Master” when it comes to grilling. Now, by master, I do not mean he has the largest grill, or fanciest tool, or coolest marinade injector – we’re talking about the appreciation of grilling in its most simplistic form.
Picture this: it’s a hot beach day. Your chair is planted deeply in the sand at the shoreline where the tide just reaches your toes.
Sweet lemon desserts have always been a favorite of ours. We got it honest – on both sides.
Just close your eyes and imagine: toes in the hot sand, bottom in a lounge chair, the smell of sunscreen, the sound of waves crashing on the shore, your skin is starting to tingle, and then you take a bite into pure one-handed heaven.
