Today they they published this quick tip about shredding and freezing leftover chicken for later use in other recipes. As they point out, shredding the chicken prior to freezing allows it to [...]
Being an Engineer by trade, I love to read statistics. It never ceases to amaze me what people keep statistics on. For example, according to this article, in 2005 grills caused approximately 3,500 structure fires and 5,000 outdoor fires in or on home properties and resulted in $137 million dollars in property damage!

In my last post, I was rubbing it in about how warm it was in Florida in the Summer and why that was a good excuse to cook oven recipes like beef brisket on the grill. Well, it is still in the mid-70s here in Florida in February and I had a craving for roast [...]
I need to confess something right off the bat before we get started. This is a recipe that could be done just as easily in the oven. I have tried a few tricks to try and give it a more “grilled” taste, but the wine and tomato sauce just isn’t making it easy. Some oven [...]
