I had a couple freezer bags of brisket in the freezer and I had a hankering for some brisket and yet I did not want to have brisket sandwiches. So, why not brisket pie? Yep, brisket pie. I started out with putting the brisket into my stainless bread mixing bowl and added a package of […]

Grilling a Steak Over Fire
While I was stranded outside of Lytton a couple weeks ago, I took the opportunity to cook some steaks over the fire.
Hiking with the Casus Grill
On Blursday (who is keeping track of what day it is what these days?) last week the kids and I decided to go for a short urban-hike and have a picnic lunch. The kids wanted to have a barbecue on the beach – and I was not prepared to pack my Ugly Drum Smoker along […]
Cheese Filled Zucchini Blossoms on the Grill
Funny that on the last week of the Coquitlam Farmer’s Market I rediscovered the delicacy of cheese stuffed zucchini blossoms. I say that I “rediscovered” zucchini blossoms because once I tasted these tender morsels, I was transported back to my childhood when we often ate stuffed zucchini blossoms. I was inspired to try preparing zucchini […]
5 Dads Go Wild; the Food We Ate
Disclosure – this blog post is about the 5DadsGoWild camping trip to Manning Park that I took with four other dad bloggers. Our trip was supported with products from a group of brands including House of Knives and Casus Grills Canada. As always, editorial control of everything I share on my blog remains with me […]
BBQ Pit Boys Inspired Bacon and Egg Pie
I was surfing around the YouTube the other day watching videos about grilling and smoking meat when I stumbled across the Barbecue Pit Boys making a Bacon and Egg Pie. What a riot. My favourite line from their video – after they have added 18 eggs to the two and a half pounds of bacon, […]
We Made Grilled Blooming Onions
The other day after cruising through Pinterest and seeing all the beautiful foods that people have made with the help of their kids, I decided to get my kids to help me with grilling a blooming onion. We started out by mixing up a bowl of dry ingredients – breadcrumbs, a shake or three of […]
Biscuits, Crisp, Croissants, and Lamb; A Weekend of Eating
I started my weekend of eating and foodie explorations with my usual Saturday morning attempt at baking biscuits. I have to say, I had a reasonably successfully experience. The biscuits were light enough but the texture still is not as soft inside as I remember the ones my mother used to make. Or were the […]
Burgers on the Grill
We did it again – we did burgers on the grill. I have to admit that once again, I made them too thick. You’d think I would’ve learned after doing this once already! Another thing I would probably do differently next time is get actual hamburger buns because the ciabatta buns I got were too […]
Burgers on the Grill
As you hopefully remember, it was Mother’s Day on the weekend just gone. To be precise, it was on Sunday. I had made reservations at one of our favourite local eateries (not A&W this time!) but, seeing as the weather was hot and sunny and we had just got our backyard pool set up, we […]
