“WIBs” in Red Bull Habanero Buffalo Sauce
12.20.2011
In my early days of traveling for work, I’d often find myself at some crappy bar and grill (one of many chains that all serve the same terrible food) debating between ordering wings or ribs… about a year ago I came across an idea in the comment section of a web blog. In fact, it was this blog post… one of the BEST Blog posts of all time! The idea was to take chicken skin, wrap it around a rib, fry it, and toss in buffalo sauce.
Summer Italian Chicken… In a Circulator!

Immersion circulators and sous vide cooking are just starting to make their ways from high end restaurants into the homes of the “average” foodie.

It turns out that this “Food Safety” course is a impromptu “informal” cooking challenge!

I love beer can chicken… It’s unorthodox grilling technique results in some of the most moist meat I’ve ever had. Also, I love that we get to combine steaming with grilling… two cooking methods that are almost contradictory by nature.
Here’s a simple recipe that will make you the star of any summer cookout.
Basic Technique: Butterflied/partially deboned Chicken [and Tandori Marinade Recipe]
03.29.2011
Every cook should have some basic butchering skills: breaking down a chicken, cutting chops, filleting a fish, and frenching a rack of ribs are all good skills to have. One of my favorite transformations is a butterflied and partially deboned chicken. It cooks quicker and more evenly, and it’s a perfect way to seperate bones for stock from meat for eating. Here’s my method:
