Tips on How to Grill the Perfect Steak

Today, I will share my tips for grilling the perfect steak.  I love a good T-Bone steak or Sirloin Steak, but sometimes the best way to cook a steak can be confusing. There are a lot of grilling recipes in books and on the internet, but they often don’t tell you exactly how to grill [...]

Irish Tacos

Irish Tacos....a fabulous way to use up leftover corned beef from St. Patrick's Day

Got leftover corned beef from yesterday’s festivities?  Honestly, I don’t know why you would, but on the off chance that you didn’t gobble up all that corned beef, I have the perfect leftover idea.  Make Irish Tacos! Only a girl who is part Irish, who married an Irish man, that lives in the Southwest would [...]

BBQ Brisket Nachos

BBQ Brisket Nachos 2

When I was in my high school marching band, we played an old “cowboy” song that was the current theme song for the Beef Council.  Yes, I’m a band geek and I loved every minute of it.  I remember all the songs we marched to and I can’t plate up a nice piece of beef [...]

Buffalo Meatballs with Dairy Free Ranch Dressing

Bacon & Blue BBQ Sliders

  If you have figured it out by now, my family loves beef!  I know, I know…it’s not the healthiest thing in the world and we don’t eat it every day (only a couple times a week).  My husband, is a sucker for a good hamburger.  The fancier the better for him!  I think he [...]

Not Your Mama’s Pot Roast

Not Your Mama's Pot Roast

I love my husband!  He is so supportive of everything that I want to do and totally embraces it.  He’s always given his suggestions on what he wants for supper, but ever since I started blogging he discusses cooking and recipes with all sorts of people.  I think he is secretly trying to get more [...]

Cheeseburger Macaroni

Cheeseburger Macaroni

My kids were screaming for noodles AGAIN (aka macaroni & cheese), but I’m sick of it and I had some ground turkey laid out for supper so we compromised.  This supper was perfect!  It gave the kids the noodles they wanted, but hubbyman and I enjoyed the change from the normal mac&cheese. It came together [...]
