Pulled Beef Tostadas
There are many recipes where you can use leftover Pulled Beef and Tostadas are only one of those great uses. If you’re looking for a quick mid-week meal then Tostadas are a wonderful change from Tacos or Burritos. If you prefer, you can make your own refried beans and Tostada shells but to simplify the meal I chose to use canned refried beans and packaged Tostada shells. Here in California you’ll find Tostada shells in virtually every market.

Cherry Smoked Garlic Butter Pork Sirloin Tip Roast
A Pork Sirloin Tip Roast is not a common cut that you’ll find at your local grocer or meat market but it’s readily available at your local Costco store if you have one near by.

This makes them an excellent option when you’re cooking for 2. Ample Pork for a delightful dinner and leftovers.
I’ve prepared these roasts often using various spices, seasonings, marinades, temperatures, smoked (Hickory & Apple), roasted, etc. If your search this Blog you’ll find these recipes. But until today, I had never marinated, injected, and smoked/roasted a Pork Sirloin Tip Roast with Cheery wood BBQ pellets. Read More
Marinaded Chicken Thighs and Drumsticks
Everyone can provide an appetizing Chicken meal for their family and friends by adding a marinade to their Chicken before cooking. One of the most versatile meats is Chicken which acts like a sponge when marinaded allowing the flavors to set in. For an Asian flavor, I really enjoy using Mr Yoshida’s Marinade and Cooking Sauce. The results are a scrumptious teriyaki flavor mixed with several different spices. When marinating chicken, it is best to let is sit for 4-6 hours, or overnight. Marinating chicken will not only add flavor, it will also make the chicken more tender and juicy. Read More
