My Story: Don’t Mess With Chili
Wednesday Aug 23, 2023
Wednesday Aug 23, 2023
Chili is one of my favorite dishes and I can eat it year round. I make it with brisket, burger, roast, ground pork, and even on the smoker. One day I was served a plate of spaghetti and they called it chili, Cincinnati Chili. Not that it was bad, but it was not chili.

Who Are You Calling Fatty?
Monday Aug 21, 2023
Monday Aug 21, 2023
Football season means appetizers and finger foods. The sausage Fatty and Jalapeño popper are some of our favorites.
You can make them more spicy by using the seeds from the jalapeño or tone it down by removing them completely. Either way, you will be the grill master extraordinaire

Wagyu Beef May Not Be What You Think
Friday Aug 18, 2023
Friday Aug 18, 2023
We are talking all about Wagyu beef and I have a call to action. Our friend, Walter from NYC lost everything to a fire and there is a GoFundMe link on our FaceBook page. Blind Grilling has sent some replacement grilling and cooking accessories his way, but if you would like to help, please head over to our Facebook page and click the link.
What is Wagyu and why can we not know exactly what we are getting if beef is labeled Wagyu in the U.S. today? The USDA has no grading system for American bred Wagyu beef and Japan has banned the export of more living Wagyu cattle for breeding. While Wagyu is amazing and something you should try at least once, it is not worth the extra cost when it comes to American bred Wagyu.

I Don’t Like Shrimp, I Love Shrimp
Monday Aug 14, 2023
Monday Aug 14, 2023
Chris breaks out the sous vide machine to try cooking shrimp using this method for the first time. It is so easy and so great; we plan on doing it a lot. He also shares a recipe for some cajun shrimp bread which you can find below:
You can use French baguette or ciabatta bread sliced in half long ways.
Preheat oven or grill to 400F
Sous Vide or cook half pound of shrimp with three cloves of minced garlic with salt and pepper to taste until firm and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes in the oven. Let shrimp cool and then dice into small, bite sized pieces.
Combine cooked shrimp with the following:
One teaspoon favorite Italian seasoning or rub
One third cup of mayo (We love Truff spicy mayo)
One quarter cup Mozzarella fresh graded cheese
Two tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
One quarter cup sour cream
Top the bread with your shrimp mixture and season with more cajun seasoning like Slap Ya Mama
Bake in oven for six to ten minutes or until cheese is melted. Enjoy

Fish fry is at the heart of community, festivals and family reunions. The ways of catching fish, preparing fish and the types of fish are diverse and all of them good. Before you can fry them, you have to catch them. This is an opportunity to teach kids about nature and our natural resources as well as respect for the things around us.
