PK Rib

Ever miss the MCRib from McDonalds, some times I do, but honestly why can’t we just make our own, wait we can, and honestly this was awesome, and one not to be ignored, let me know if you tried this.

Phase 1 Ingredients

2 Packs of ground pork
1 Large white onion
1 Jar of pickles
BBQ Sauce
4 TBS Garlic Powder
A pack of Kaiser sub buns

Phase 2 Instructions

In a bowl put your ground pork in, put in garlic powder, and mix it in well, and spend your time doing this as you want it incorporated. Then start making some really rectangle sized patties, make sure you squeeze and beat them as best you can, I don’t worry about making it look like a rib, you won’t get it perfect unless you actually have a mold, and to be honest its not that important just do your best.

Fry up your patties until done, when done put them in a bowl smother in BBQ sauce, put it on the patty, cover with onion and pickles and your done, very quick very simple.

We really enjoyed this, it was so tasty and amazing, I no longer care if MCDs ever brings theirs back, ours is better!

Tater Tot Casserole

The Tater Tot Casserole is an amazing dish, easy to make, and quite filling, and can be a great way to start your day! The only difference is we are using potatoes instead of tater tots as tater tots are loaded with sodium.

Phase 1. The Ingredients.

7 Medium potatoes
2 Pieces of pork cubed up
BBQ sauce
Apple cider vinegar
Black pepper
A block of cheddar cheese
1 Can of chickpeas
1 Bunch of fresh spinach
1 Can of crushed tomatos
2 Medium onions
1 Red sweet pepper
Dill spice
1 Can of sweet corn
1 Pack of mushrooms
Tajin

Phase 1 – Potato Bath

Cube up the potatos, and soak them in water for 30 minutes, after that rinse them and let them dry.

Phase 2 – Wheres the Beef?

Well there is no beef, its pork, we are using a piece of tender loin, and pork chop, we cut them, and fried them with black pepper apple cider vinegar and some BBQ sauce, let this cool after they are done cooking.

Phase 3 – The Prep

Chop up the spinach, the onions and pepper, and shred the cheese up.

Phase 4 – Making the Casserole

Greese a cassarole dish, and line the bottom with your potatos, they don’t need to be absolutely dry, but should mostly be dry, put some black pepper and dill spice over it, you don’t want to over spice this here.

Put your meat mixture over it, and then sprinkle half of your cheese on top of that.

Now spread your veggie mix and add some tajin and then the rest of your cheese.

Phase 5 – Cooking

Preheat your ovenn to 350 degrees, and bake for 45 minutes.

After that take it out and let it set for 10 minutes!

We hope you enjoyed this, are you going to try it? We are happy we heard about this one, its going to be so delicious and so easy to make again!

Homemade Sandwich

Sandwiches are great, but ever wonder why yours looks bad and get stuck buying one just to get one that looks and tastes great?

I’ve been guilty of it, and I know so have you, but here is the thing, you have to consider the quality of meat your using, the type of bread or bun your using, and sauce and how its going together, it really does mater.

So lets take some time and think about it.

Phase 1. The meat!

The meat is a big part of a sandwich, and often if you go to the store and buy sandwich meat, its thin, not as flavorful and just not the best quality around, so what do we do?

In our video here we used chicken, but you can use pork or a beef product, season it to what you like, pepper, salt if you must (I like low sodium myself), maybe some honey, and bake it until its cooked , but you want it moist.

When done take it out of the oven, let it cool and then slice it thin, or however you like it, many of us don’t have a meat slicer and thats ok, (who has room for that anyways.), when done put it in the fridge for a bit.

Phase 2. Veggies.

Cut up your veggies nice and thin, but remember to use veggies that are dry, cukes and tomatoes are nice and all, but they can often be wet and can make your sandwich a soggy mess, so if your going to use tomatoes make sure you are not putting seeds in, this will ruin it, take those out. you want lettuce or spinach or something similar. make sure to have several varieties or your sandwich is going to be boring.

Phase 3. Sauce.

Directly on the inside of the bun on both sides, I like just plain mayo over that, it acts like a lubricant, and helps keep the bread from going soggy, you can do a mayo mix with hot sauce, or mustard or other things to give it a bit more flavor.

You can use other sauces like BBQ sauces, or a vinaigrette, or other tasty sauces you might want to include.

Phase 4. Cheese

You need cheese, plain and simple and to be honest you do not want cheesewiz, you want something of quality, you can get cheese slices, but honestly that brings you back to just making bland crap, so you can buy a block of cheese and cut that up, or go to the deli and buy a really nice block of cheese, trust me the flavor this brings is so electric and amazing, and trust me the cheese that you get from the deli is actual real cheese, and if you’ve never had it, trust me you need to.

Phase 5. Bread

You could use whtie bread, but when you buy a a good quality sandwich is it on white bread, most often it isn’t, why not choose a multi grain, or even better a nice bun, or roll, after all you want the best quality you can get, and this is going to do it.

Phase 6. Putting it all together!

Ok, so here is the fun part, not the most fun part, that is you eating it.

Take your roll and cut it down the middle, or if its bread just use both slices, but put your mayo, or mayo mix on the bottom of each side, this will act as a lubricant, which helps from keeping the juices getting your bread product

Then put some lettuce on the bottom and layering it nicely.

Now you want to take your meat and start layering that as well, giving it a nice presentation and having enough on it to make you happy.

Now start putting your veggies on it one by one, keeping in mind not to put too many veggies on it as it will make it messy and also hard to close, this isn’t a Subway sub, they do give you lots of veggies, but not a whole lot, and in the end it does look good, but the quality isn’t there.

Now your sauce you want to use, and remember do not over load this, or it is going to be messy, you want to have enough you taste and know its there and are happy, but not so much its going to over flow.

Then your cheese, and you want enough of this, especially if its from the deli.

Then lastly some more lettuce and close your sandwich.

The only thing left to do if you really want, you can put this in a pre heated oven to toast it.

But thats all, try this out some time, and if your someone who would enjoy to bring this to your work for lunch, buy the quantities for the week, and do the math, I bet you its cheaper than buying it every day, and honestly your co workers are going to be jelous!

Sausage Party

The sausage party is a great treat in the summer, instead of having a crappy hotdog, lets make a sausage, made just right, easy simple, but yet tastes amazing!

Phase 1 Boil The Sausages

Choose your sausages, you can get many different flavors at your local grocery store, but choose the ones that look good and think will taste good, start by taking a pot and boil some water, when the water is boiling start to boil your sauces until they are cooked.

Phase 2 Chop some veggies

I like Onions Red Peppers and Mushrooms, give them all a good rough chop, simple as that.

Phase 3 BBQ Sauce

We could use a simple store bought bbq sauce and it would be easy and done with, and please feel free to if you want, but we like to make things a bit more complicated as it tastes better and youll have a better reward at the end.

In a bowl mix in.

  1. Chinese BBQ Sauce.
  2. American BBQ Sauce.
  3. Dijon Mustard (You can use yellow if thats all you have.)
  4. Rice Wine Vinigar.
  5. Apple Cyder Vinigar.

Mix this well and set aside!

Phase 4 Cook the Veggies.

Cook your veggies down so they are soft but not caramalized.

Phase 5 Re Cook The Sausages

Take the sausages out and slice them up then mix them in with the BBQ sauce, and then fry them up till they are done, nothing to complicated here, you want them to be grilled good.

Phase 6 Fill The Bun

Take a larger hotdog bun, and put your sausages inside it, and then fill with some veggies, you shouldn’t need condiments on this as the BBQ sauce should still be dripping over the sausages that it should do the job fine, and your done!

This was short and sweet and simple, it doesn’t take a whole lot to do this and it tastes amazing, you can serve this with corn on the cob and some fries! You can add cheese on top if you like as well!

Sweet Thai Chili Tenderloin

Sweet Thai Chili Pork Tenderloin is one of my favorite cuts of meat, and as my friend Tony is famous for saying, eat like a pig,. Well Tony, I think I will, its not a hard thing to cook, takes some time yes, but its well worth it.

In here I’m using cast iron, if your not, it may take a bit longer, and when it comes to baking use a baking tray.

Phase 1 Get the loins ready!

You want to make sure that you are coating all sides with oil, minced ginger and garlic, and paprika salt and pepper.

Phase 2 Sauce me up baby!

In a bowl mix the following.

  1. Honey.
  2. Lo Salt.
  3. Cracked Pepper.
  4. Thai Chili Sauce.
  5. Apple Cyder Vinegar (only a small amount).
  6. Roasted Sesame oil (only a small amount).
  7. Dutch sweet soya sauce.

Mix it all up good,

Phase 3 Sear it.

Piece by piece sear all sides of it until its seared but not cooked.

Pre heat your oven to 400 degrees, (while cooking this take your time and pay attention to your food as everyone’s oven is different and you don’t want to burn this.)

Phase 4 Bake It!

Coat the top with the sauce, and then bake it for 12 minutes, after 12 minutes take it out and flip it and put more sauce over the next side and bake for the final 12 min.

Phase 5 Finishing it up!

Once its done cooking, wait about 10 minutes before doing anything, if you cut into it right away the juices are going to escape and it just won’t taste right!

After 10 minutes start slicing it into thin strips, and your done! Serve this with potatoes, maybe rice, what ever you want, and any veggie you want!

We hope you enjoy this, this is almost my favorite slice of meat ever!
