Why Your BBQ Thermometer Isn't Accurate

THE RECIPE FILE

Red Pepper Ketchup


While I am not a big ketchup fan, it is good on hamburgers, tator tots and homemade potato planks. Here's a way to use up the abundance of red peppers from your garden and make them into a tasty condiment.

Fresh Berry Compote for Pork, Chicken, Fish


Hey! It’s July---BERRY TIME in the NW! I love fresh berries. Can’t get enough of them as a matter of fact. Here’s an incredibly simple and savory compote or marinade to use on just about any type of fish you land.  Cooked-the recipe becomes a compote. Left cold, it’s a marinade. So try it out both ways and see which one you like.

Smoked Salsa


I was talking with a friend the other day about salsas and avacado. We both love avacado. I told him about this smoked salsa recipe and he was drooling all over the phone. The smokey flavor enhances the ingredients.

Bacon-wrapped Mushrooms


This past weekend I conducted a series of demonstration cooks in Eastern Washington. One of the items I served were bacon-wrapped mushrooms. Easy to make, and wonderfully tasty! Enjoy them with your favorite summer refresher.
