I'm NEVER Going to Cook a Turkey Any Other Way After THIS
You will be blown away at this incredibly juicy roast turkey recipe that is stuffed with herb butter and cooked breast side down. There is no going back after tasting this delicious turkey.
Roast turkey is the simple cooking procedure in a pan in the oven until it is browned on all sides and cooked throughout. This procedure is also known as the dry heat method, which is commonly used to render a dark brown outer crust while cooking to the desired internal temperature.
There are several enhancements you can do to the turkey to make it more flavorful such as stuffing it with vegetables or herb butter. If you have a favorite seasoning blend or stuffing I encourage you to use it while still following the cooking procedures in this recipe.

I was BLOWN AWAY by this Apple Tarte Tatin
This easy-to-make tarte Tatin recipe has only 6 ingredients and comes together in under 1 hour for an unbelievably delicious dessert. You will love the simplicity and flavors in this class tart recipe.
Tarte Tatin is a famous French upside-down apple tart. It’s made by covering the bottom of a skillet or cake pan with butter and sugar until it caramelizes, and then apples are layered on top. It is then covered in a simple dough like a pie crust called shortcrust pastry dough and then baked until finished.
The tart is said to be created by two French sisters who live in the Loire Valley and made a living serving this tart. The classic name for this dish is tarte des demoiselles Tatin, which translates as the tarte of two unmarried women named Tatin. Fun story.

The ONLY Braised Short Rib Recipe You Need
If you’re a meat lover, this braised beef short ribs recipe served over creamy polenta is the perfect fall-off-the-bone recipe. You will love the flavor in this easy-to-prepare recipe.
Short Ribs are rectangle cuts of beef that are about 2” by 4” in size and come from the chuck area of the cow. They consist of layers of meat and fat and contain the rib bone. They are different from Kalbi Short ribs, as those are crosscut and formally known as flanken cut. Because they are from a section of beef that traditionally renders tougher cuts of meat, it requires long, slow, moist-heat cooking.
Short ribs range in price from $8 - $10 per pound and occasionally can go on sale for $6 - $7 per pound, making it an inexpensive beef recipe. This is one of my all-time favorite dishes and is the perfect meal to serve to guests or for Sunday dinner with the family. In addition,

This is How I get PERFECT Smoked Salmon EVERY Time
This delicious smoked salmon recipe is brined in a wet brown sugar and citrus brine then finished with a sweet orange glaze for incredible flavor. The taste of this smoked salmon is amazing, and you can serve it hot or cold.
Smoked salmon is a process where fresh salmon is either cold or hot smoked. Hot smoking is where the salmon is smoked at temperatures between 120° and 180° until the desired internal temperature is achieved. You can also hot smoke the salmon for several hours if you plan to wrap it, cool it, and serve it cold after several days, but the texture can be dry.
The other method is cold smoking which smokes at temperatures between 70° and 90° for several hours and even up to a few weeks. If smoking for several weeks, it turns the fish into salmon-jerky. If you brine the salmon and cold smoke it for several hours, you will get something known as lox.
My smoked salmon recipe is known as kippered salmon. This method is brined and hot smoked and can be served hot or cold. I prefer to cook it to 140° to 145° internally because I like to eat it warm.

Italian sausage is ground pork often flavored with garlic and fennel seed. It comes in two different styles, sweet or hot.

In addition, Italian sausage is a very popular pizza topping in coarse loose chunks or sliced links.
Every holiday we celebrate seems to have Italian sausage as one of the items served. Whether in a sauce or grilled and served on a bun, it’s a very popular cased protein.

Canning Tomatoes Like My Italian Grandma Used to Do It!
Canning tomatoes has never been easier with my easy step-by-step how-to instructions, including recipes and video. Once you start to can your own food, it’s hard to ever go back.
Canning tomatoes is a method of preserving tomatoes by hermetically sealing them in glass jars. The use of canning-specific jars and lids is crucial to the success of canning. The process involves peeling the tomatoes, roughly chop them, and then cooking them over low heat until they reach your desired consistency of doneness.
The canning process involved heating sterilized jars in making sure all the microorganisms that cause spoiling are destroyed, which in return will retain maximum flavor, color, and nutrients. This easy-to-do ago old technique still works beautifully when done correctly and can have an incredibly long shelf life.

I Made THE MOST Flavorful Chili in Existence!
This slow-cooked smoked brisket chili is the ultimate recipe to show off and share with your family and friends. The flavors in this chili are incredible, especially with the two secret ingredients I put in at the end.
Chili, or chili con carne, is a centuries-old recipe consisting of ground or chopped beef with chilis or chili powder. While the first recipes started to show up in San Antonio, Texas, in the early 18th century, it is said to have been created by the Aztecs in the 16 century. There are also many other stories and tales of how this came to be.
In Texas, it's often called a "bowl of red" and considered a crime if beans are added. However, beans have become a precondition to chili across America in other states. This classic dish has also been redone throughout the United States as there are several different versions like Cincinnati Chili, White Chicken Chili, or even this brisket chili recipe, among many others.
Chili is always good because it's hearty, can feed a big group of people, and can be altered and customized to fit your flavor profiles. In addition, it's also delicious on hotdogs and Smash Burgers.

Making PERFECT St. Louis Style BBQ Pork Steaks
This delicious grilled St. Louis Pork Steak recipe is reverse seared and then basted with homemade BBQ sauce and charred to perfection. If you’ve never had these before, you will be blown away at how delicious they are.
Pork steaks are an absolute St. Louis BBQ staple. They are thin-cut pork butt or shoulder steaks grilled until done and basted with a tomato-vinegar BBQ sauce. The most common cooking method would be to quickly char them on both sides and then slow cook them for a few hours in BBQ sauce.
While you can cook these using any procedure you’d like, I believe reverse searing them makes them the most tender and juicy without the risk of overcooking. Check out my video below to see how I made them.

Ooey Gooey Butter Cake with EXTRA Goo
You will love this delicious St. Louis, Missouri native gooey butter that will become your new favorite treat. This cake is said to have been created to enjoy at breakfast or for a mid-day snack.
Gooey butter cake is a St. Louis, Missouri specialty consisting of a buttered cake bottom and sweet butter filling that goes on top. It is a cooked cake, but the top portion of it will be soft and gooey. There are a few different origin stories for this recipe on how it was created, but we know for sure that it 100% has St. Louis German roots.
Gooey butter cake is also said to be made using two different methods, the yeast cake version, and the pre-made yellow cake version. This topic is still controversial today, but I believe it was created using a yeast bottom cake. This would lend more credibility to the roots of both creators, who are said to be the founding father of the gooey butter cake. I'm making the gooey butter cake based on the original St. Louis Bakery version.
The quicker, more convenient recipe uses yellow cake mix, and cream cheese, which I believe are more shortcuts than the original recipe would have used.
One thing is for sure, every person in Missouri has their own idea of what they think Gooey Butter Cake is, which is just fine with me.

Let's Make a Birthday Cake for MY Birthday!
Another year, another birthday, so I figured why not celebrate by making my favorite childhood birthday cake, the funfetti cake.
Funfetti cake is a simple white vanilla cake that has sprinkles folded into the batter that is then baked and frosted with buttercream. This cake can be baked in cake pans, 13x9 casserole dishes, or even turned into muffins. Funfetti cake seems to be most popular as a birthday cake.
Believe it or not, Pillsbury is the one who came up with the funfetti cake back in the late 1980s. Since then, people have been making homemade versions without all the added ingredients.
