Non-Contact IR Thermometer 

Preparation: 

Step 1 - Pre-heat the Himalayan Salt Block on the stove or grill for 15 - 20 minutes before grilling. You are looking for a surface temperature of 350 - 400 degrees. A non-contact IR thermometer is helpful to check the temperature. Be sure to read all safety information relating to proper heating and handling of the salt block before using. 

Step 2 - Dice up the Papaya (1/3rd used for recipe), Mango, and the Kiwi and place into a mixing bowl. Next slice 1/3 lemon and juice into diced up fruit. Then add a pinch of salt and the honey and mix to incorporate. Cover bowl and place into refrigerator

Step 3 - Coat salmon fillet with olive oil and freshly ground five peppercorn blend on both sides

Step 4 - Coat surface of salt block with a light coating of olive oil, then place salmon fillet on top, skin side up and cook for 5 - 10 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3 - 5 minutes until your desired doneness is achieved

Step 5 - Assemble the dish by first laying the romaine lettuce leaf on the plate. Then slice six 1/4" thick lemon slices and place on lettuce leaf. Next squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top of the salmon, then add the tropical fruit chutney to complete the dish! Serve and Enjoy!!!

Pit Master's Tip: Make sure you cook your salmon all the way through. I recommend using an instant read thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 145 degrees to verify its done.


Enjoy!

How to Make Himalayan Salt Block Grilled Salmon with a Tropical Fruit Chutney

Spencer's Lamb Minestone Soup

You may know Spencer from seeing him completing chores with the farm operations team, but around here he's also known for stellar cooking skills. Each month, Spencer graciously prepares a team meal on a day we all look forward to that we call "feastivities." Spencer has filled our bellies (and hearts!) with many delicious meals these past several months, and today we share one of our favs - Lamb Minestrone Soup.

Rosemary Dijon Chicken Thighs

When it comes to making meals for my family, I try to prepare dishes that are elevated in flavor, but will also be something that will interest my toddlers (and sometimes even my husband for that matter haha). Kids don’t always care for the fancy foods, but I truly enjoy introducing new ingredients to my family, and incorporating different elements to my recipes. So finding that balance is my mission in the kitchen. Chicken is like the most blank canvas you can get in the culinary world. It can so beautifully adapt to any flavor profile and can be cooked many different ways. It’s one my of most favorite proteins and I could eat it every day, truly. This recipe envelopes simple home-style cooking, while representing refined and gourmet flavors. The rosemary brings an earthy freshness, while the Dijon mustard adds a tangy kick. It’s completed with a rich buttery sour cream that just brings the whole dish together. If you’re looking for a perfectly balanced dish, this is it. I hope you enjoy!

Hearty Chuck Roast Recipe

I absolutely love the warm, summer months. But, I have to admit, cooking in the cooler months is my favorite! There’s just something about having a warm, nourishing, hearty meal waiting for Bruce when he comes in from farming in the frigid temperatures. In a way, it makes me feel like I’m really doing my part in taking care of him, as he provides for our family! This pot roast recipe is 100% no fail and husband approved. It has all of the perfect elements including potatoes, carrots, fresh herbed and spices, a hearty broth, and of course the meat. I used chuck roast as the protein as personal preference, but you could definitely opt for a different cut. Packed with all the autumnal flavors, this recipe is bound to be a family favorite, and all you have to do is throw it in a pot and let time work its magic!
