condiments: onions, garlic, bell peppers, cilantro and bay leaves.  

fruit: mango, anon, mamey, honeybell oranges and ruby red grapefruit.

fowl: leghorn hens, osceola turkey, ringneck doves, pheasant

meats: real serrano ham from spain, smoked virginia ham, pork, axis deer, marbledbeef and new zealand lamb

fish: grouper, yellow tail, red, mutton and mangrove snapper, dorado (the proper name for mahi mahi in the atlantic) atlantic salmon, sail fish and mako shark.

but my very favorite is an omelet made with fresh ducks eggs (thanks muscovys down by the lake) utilizing the first ingridients cooked in butter with a slice of smoked ham and and home made chile salsa within.


breakfast, not just for breakfast anymore.

Hard to beat the taste of 25YO scotch.

same thing IMHO...

if you want to choose "new york strip steak" or "pickled beet juice" it's your call.

I choose garlic because it is my favorite overall flavor, even though I love a great steak, and other things garlic is the best.
I don't know what to put here yet.

One of the times i was pregnant i barfed every time i smelled butter.  I never lost the distaste for it. Such a shame.  Too bad it wasn't something that I didn't like anyhow ~ like licorice.

For me and the wife...garlic is definitely #1.

Last Sunday:  Marinated 2, four pound 2" sirloins in fresh minced garlic, hickory liquid smoke, and worchestershire sauce for 24 hours before smoking them to medium-medium rare on the Weber grill (charcoal and dampened hickory chips).  Served with 2 lbs of hot buttered mushrooms (more garlic) and roasted on the grill corn on the cob...basted with olive oil-minced garlic-hickory smoke sauce baste.


I love my smoked garlic hamburgers: take slivers of fresh garlic and poke them in all over the 5" x 1" burger...stuff with diced shallots and blue cheese crumbles.  Grill until juices run clear.

My Top 5:
1) Garlic
2) Hickory Smoke
3) Hot peppers (Jalepeno/Habenero/Tobasco/Cayenne)
4) Barbecue Sauce/BBQ ANYTHING (Ribs/Turkey/Rib-tips)
5) Italian spices (oregano, basil, onion, dried tomato, olives)


This BBQ Sauce ROCKS!:
BBQ Sauce
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups finely chopped yellow onion
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 1/4 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons Emeril’s Bayou Blast or other Creole Seasoning
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
1 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar

For whoever asked how to make Cajun Seasoning...Here's the master's...Emeril Lagassi's:

Bayou Blast Seasoning
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Combine all ingredients thoroughly in a food processor.

I make a killer:  Chili, smoked turkey stuffed with cranberries cherries slivered almonds & sausage, gumbo w/andoulle sausage, seafood creole, steamed live lobster, crawfish etouffee, & shrimp scampi.


Until next summer's "2nd Annual Aces High Recipe Swap"......

There is no greater flavor than whatever the hell is the soup base for Ramen (the real ramen not the cup noodles that bear that name in the market outside Japan).

Im talking about this baby!:

I was at this floating Chinese restaurant in Amsterdam on Saturday.  They had a dish called Pork with Crispy skin.

I had to try that.

It was amazing.  The meat was covered in fat and deep fried.  It came out as small pieces of the meat coated in a pork crackling the likes of which we all fight over at home when my step mother does a pork roast with crackling.

It was better than bacon....trust me.  My arteries are still gasping.

All this talk of butter  and bacon has my heart clogging up again.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
