Did up a brisket on the smoker on Sunday for the game and tried something a little different with the leftovers Monday night. Followed an online instant-pot recipe for leftover brisket birria tacos. It was a fairly seamless process and was a huge hit with the family. Will definitely be running...

My old man spent a week at Bodega crabbing last week. He was kind enough to come back to town midway through with a limit for us poor folks that had to be at work. Matched the crab up with some garlic bread, some ravioli/malfatti, a beautiful salad with thousand island and homemade croutons and...

Ground up and cased some Blacktail sausage with my two boys and a couple of the older son's buddies last weekend. #25 of all pork bulk breakfast sausage, #25 of deer/bacon end bulk burger grind, #25 of Tuscan deer/pork in casings, #25 of General Tso's Asian deer/pork in casings. Tried two new...

Mama is outta town for a work deal, so the boys and I are running unsupervised. So I made one my favorites from my dear old granny's wheelhouse for em. Thick cut, bone in pork chops, stuffed with cornbread Stove Top, mushroom gravy, pee stinkers and French bread.

Howzit goin all? Getting started on the interior buildout of a fire rebuild on the families old hunting hideout. We lost the original structure in the August fire a few years ago. We decided to build back with a 1,500sqft. metal building and build it out into a barndominium of sorts. So my...

I had been hankering for shrimp for over a week, so last night I dipped off to the market and picked some up on my way home from the salt mines. Mama already had the pork tenderloins marinated, the cauliflower and veggies, and the red beans and rice rolling, so I just wrapped the seasoned...

I will freely admit that despite my best efforts during my youth, I ended up a lot like the old man. Pop taught me young that if I watch my pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves. While neither of us will blink an eye to spend our hard earned dollars on something of quality or pick up...

I am reaching out for any help finding a cow elk hunt for my dad for this coming season 2023. Either private land guided or trespass fee hunt with landowner tags. He has been hunting a ranch in north eastern Colorado for the past 8 years or so, but it sold and he lost access. Pop is 84 years old...

We have had a pretty good last year and a better than good start to the new year, so one of our vendors dropped by a couple bottles of single barrel Blanton's by the office to thank us for the business. I cannot justify spending the kind of dough that "high end" bourbon is selling for these...

Pre-holidays I purchased a Rib Roast and cut off the bones for later, making sure to leave plenty of meat on the bone. I had planned to do the usual, which is a long slow BBQ session on the pellet grill. This has always turned out great and is well liked by all in the family. By happenstance I...

The ol' Green Mountain acted up on me last night halfway through grilling a couple of pieces of Antelope backstrap....... So, I had to call a quick audible and finish em off in Granny's ol' cast iron pan on the stove in butter, garlic and rosemary. Red wine, salad, fresh rolls and some...

Got home from the salt mines a little early and did a little chicken Cordon Blue and Broccolini for the fam last night. Bearnaise ended up a little lumpy but other than that it was magnifique!

My son and my buddies two lads have unit 10 cow elk tags (near Dinosaur) Nov. 23-27th. We are staying in a motel in Rangely. I do not have a lot of experience with this part of the state this time of year, so question is... If you were me (and thank god your not), would you bring a Jeep or a...

Well, like most of the west, it's been hotter than a fresh f****d fox in a forest fire around our place lately. So rather that cook in the house I set up the camp stove on the patio and fried up some Halibut my Pop brought home from AK in June. This turned into some pretty mean fish tacos. 8"...

Well, I finally got an antelope tag in my pocket, and was fortunate enough to put it on a nice little Nevada buck. Having never hunted goats before, I wasn't super sure how this deal would go down, especially with a bow in my hand. Fortunately for me though, things came together on the 4th day...

My oldest is off to a great start this year! He chalked up this decent forky on opening weekend while hunting with my ol' man and his cast of characters at their club. This is his third Blacktail in three years and he is definitely coming into his own. He spotted this guy bedded under a poison...

After watching a couple YouTube videos I bought an Ultimate Predator, "Stalker" decoy to mount to the bow on an upcoming Nevada archery Antelope hunt Aug 1st-21st. I have zero experience using a decoy for anything other than Turkeys. Just curious what you guys that may have more experience...

While diggin around the chest freezer last week I came across a couple packages of beef short ribs. So, Saturday morning they took a nap on the smoker for a few hours while my oldest was playing hardball. When we got back from the ballgame it was time to put em into covered aluminum pan to...
