  • Bourbon Smoked Pepper

Directions

 

Prep Time: 1 Hour 15 Minutes | Cook Time: 1 Hour 15 minutes | Servings: 2

 

Special Equipment:

Campfire Grill Grate or Hot Dog/Marshmallow Stick(s)

Preparation:

Step 1 – Start your campfire 1 hour before you plan to grill and allow it to cook down to nice hot coals

Step 2 – If cooking the sweet potatoes, place them unwrapped at the edge of the campfire and allow to cook for 1 hour. Turn them every 15 minutes a ¼ turn to allow even cooking

Step 3 – Place the lamb chops into a plastic bag, and add chopped garlic, rosemary, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Allow the chops to marinate for 1 hour unrefrigerated

Step 4 – Remove the chops from the plastic bag and place on campfire cooking grate or on a hot dog/marshmallow stick(s). If using a cooking grate, just place onions on the grate, or skewer on sticks with lamb chops. Hold over the hot coals, about 8 – 10 inches above the coals and cook for 4 – 5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is achieved. Watch closely as to not burn the chops or onions

Serve and enjoy!!!

Chef's Tip: When removing the sweet potatoes from the campfire, be sure to tap them on the edge of the pit to shake off any hot coals. Handle with care as they will be very hot! Desired doneness for the lamb loin chops is medium rare to medium. Overcooking the chops can make them tough

Chicken Chorizo Tacos with Mango Salsa

Indulge in this spicy and tangy taco recipe, featuring one of our newest products, Chicken Chorizo! While chorizo can be used in a variety of dishes, with its cured and seasoned elements, I find using it for tacos is superior. While the chorizo is the star in this dish, let's not overlook the home made mango salsa. It may be the most time consuming part of this recipe, but it is worth it. The freshness and acidity compliments the spice of the chorizo so well. These flavors are sure to leave your mouth watering for more after each bite!

Bacon Jam Pork Sliders with Dill Pickle Slaw

I had heard of this thing called bacon jam a couple years ago and it definitely intrigued me. Don’t ask me why it took me that long to actually make it myself - trust me, after tasting it, I’m wondering the same thing. Bacon jam is a great and simple way to elevate the flavor of your recipes. In this case, I am using it as a topper for my pork sliders. Pork and more pork. Need I say more? It’s the perfect balance between sweet and savory. The caramelized texture and rich flavor makes it the best condiment for so many different dishes, sweet and savory alike. Pro tip, put it on top of some vanilla ice cream and your life will be complete. Bacon jam is technically a relish, so store it in an air tight jar in the refrigerator and enjoy for weeks to come. And you WILL enjoy it! This recipe is one of a kind and a combination of some of my favorite flavors. You really can't go wrong with bacon or dill pickle, am I right? The slaw really brings a refreshing element to this recipe and in my opinion completes it, but if it's not your gig, you can do away with it. I used ground pork and made small patties for this recipe, but you can most certainly substitute pulled pork as well. With that said, get to cooking so you can get to eating! Enjoy!
