Curry Hot Sauce

After going to the British Beer Company for dinner and tasting a Curry Hot Sauce which had great Curry flavor and mild spice I decided to try creating my own.
As you can see I pulled out all the stops for this one in terms of spicynessAlso the Garden already produced one Jalapeno which I had to pull to keep the growth of the plant from being stunted.

First I mad a nice Curry bases and slowly added the spicy mix and finally all the ground up pepper and let simmer for 30 minutes.


Awesome Orange color with at least 1.5 Million scovilles in heat. Grilled up some chicken with a helping of the sauce and felt the burn for 45 minutes after finishing.

Started to try my hand at making pizza from scratch with a spicy home made marinaria sauce heavy garlic and crushed red peppers with chili flavored olive oil.
Turned out great and was gone in no time.
Next I will move the stone to the charcoal grill and try my hand at BBQ pizza.

Grilled Turkey

One of the best things about having Thanksgiving at home is trying all kinds of new ways to cook a Turkey. In 2007 we decided to buy the weber rotisserie attachment and indirectly cook our Turkey over Charcoal.

Adding in a aunt's injection recipe containing Garlic Juice, TabascoIt just happened to be a nice 50degrees out in lovely New England this year.


The cook time was only 2 hours for a 13 pound bird to cook. There was a beautiful smoke ring under the excellent skin and it was by far the most juiciest bird I have ever had for Thanksgiving quickly become a yearly ritual at our house.

Pulled Pork


Decided to make home made pulled pork as an experiment in smoking meats on the charcoal grill. Bought a 3 pound Boston Butt as a starter to prove if it could actually be done on a now smoker grill.

Made a spice rub out of the following:
Garlic Powder
Crushed Red Pepper
Black Pepper
Stubbs Chile Lime
Stubbs Rosemary Ginger
Asian 5 Spice
Cayenne Pepper
Hot Paprika
Element of Spice: Spirit of Fire
Mustard Powder
Memphis Style Barbeque Spice
Zesty Seasoned Salt
Hot Shot Black and Red Pepper Blend
Hot Mexican Style Chili Powder
Habanero Dust
Ground Cumin
Onion Powder
Let it sit in the refrigerator for two days

On the day of I soak Mesquite flavored wood for 2 hours in water to provide optimal smoke
Setup the grill for indirect heating with a drip trap and got the smoke rolling and temputure right around 275 to 300



Filled the drip tray with apple juice and some left over rub


Checked it every 2 hours and sprayed it with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and apple juice to keep the outside moist.Total cook time 6 hours of smoking

Made 6 huge sandwiches with left overs for 4 more and damn near past out from the ITIS. Totally worth the time and effort to do.
