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 […]

Thrilling Grilling
I don’t know why I stopped grilling last fall. It doesn’t really get that cold out here on the west coast so there really is no reason to stop. So when I saw my blogger/podcaster friend Tony Conrad (teller of Bad Dad Jokes) grilling, that got me thinking – why not get grilling again? Funny […]
Grilling Season Has Begun
I’m a little late to join the grilling season this year but what the hey, I’m doing it now. The fact that I’m eating more of a plant-based diet isn’t going to keep me from grilling this summer. So last night, I flattened out some peppers and sliced up a couple onions. I put the […]

Yes, I am clearly embracing the grilling lifestyle! Other than the baby potatoes, all of the feast pictured below came off the grill. Please follow and like us:
Grilling Adventure Sausage Edition
My grilling adventure continues. This time we had a total sausage fest. One of the tools I picked up this week was a quick-read thermometer. Safety first when grilling! I’ve noticed that I have not been doing my tin-foil bag of onions on the grill recently. I’ll have to get back into the habit. […]
