    Gordon Ramsey has a new book...

    Gordon Ramsey is well known for his rants and tirades on tv whether it be hells kitchen or kitchen nightmares. They show a bad side of him as far as I am concerned. What they do not show is his intense passion for food. Like my other favorite chef, Jamie Oliver, he focuses on fresh quality...

    Had a little time today...

    Had some time today to do a little cooking. So I grabbed some beef ribs and chicken drumsticks. Applied a quick rub and went to light the smoker. Once the coals looked good I grabbed the meat and got it on the smoker. Once all was set I settled back with a IPA and watched the thin bleu...
