Are you ready for 2018?
2017 was a good year for me from a culinary standpoint. Here are the top 10 recipes from the year, but first let me go over some things I learned that I’m so excited about…still.
I discovered smoking.
THAT was huge; I never really knew the joy of smoking until I got my smoker box.
One of best things I’ve smoked so far – Smoked Lemon Pepper Wings.
Go here for the recipe.
I discovered sous vide cooking. Words can’t express how much I love this method. If you don’t have a sous vide, get one ASAP.
I made these Reverse Sear Carnitas.
Get the recipe here.
I learned that you can pancake batter the shit out of just about anything.
Including Pancake Battered Chicken.
Go here for the recipe.
I learned that bacon and tequila pair quite nicely. I made this Bacon Jalapeno Tequila Jam Burger, and it got me a Golden Ticket to World Food Championships.
Get the recipe here.
I learned EXACTLY how to make copycat Krystal (or White Castle) burgers. I nailed them.
Go here for the recipe.
I learned that thinly sliced potatoes make damn good vehicles for other food – such as Sloppy Joe stuff. And other stuff.
Ok, fine, jalapenos.
Get this here –> recipe.
I learned that shoving a beer can in the middle of ground beef makes for a perfectly stuffed burger.
Go here for the recipe – You won’t be sorry.
I also learned that adding an Asian flair to the typical French Dip is absolutely amazing.
Get the recipe for this Asian French Dip here.
I also played around with layering – cheese encased in a meatball encased in a pretzel shell. Sounds complicated, but nah.
Get the recipe for these Meatball Stuffed Pretzels.
Oh, and I made, yet, another burger. Shocker, I know.

That was the best of the best – 2017 version.
Pin the collection!
