Ah, it’s good to be back! Graduate school forced me to take a leave of absence from posting for a while, although I never stopped cooking. Since it has begun to cool off for fall, I thought I would make the first post after my long absence on some sort of comfort food. Between William [...]

Bacon. Lettuce. Tomato.
Mayo. Toast.
A sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper.
That, my friends, is all that is needed for an amazing sandwich.
It’s summer, so homegrown tomatoes are in abundance. A coworker has more than she knows what to do with, so she has been giving them away at work. I’m all to happy to lend a [...]

Humor me for a moment… let’s play a game called combining three good things into one unique treat.
Good thing number one:
Chocolate
This is a good start. It goes with lots of things. Milk or dark, it doesn’t matter, you already have a following.
Good thing number two:
Salt
Enough said.
Good thing number three:
Bacon
Wait, what? Back up a minute. Really? [...]

Meatloaf is a brand new experience for me. It was never a dish that my parents made at home, and I ordered it only once before in a restaurant. There was just something unappealing about putting ground meat in a loaf pan and letting it cook in its own grease. The fact that I was [...]

There are so many variations and so many “right” ways to make chili that I have all but given up on being authentic. I’ve made chili with beans, I’ve made chili without beans, I’ve added pineapples, I’ve added chocolate, I’ve even added root vegetables like carrots to it. I’ve used different cuts and different kinds [...]

Spring is here, and apart from gardens and fresher greens, this means that cooking outside is officially ‘in season’. As this past weekend was the first weekend of Spring, waking the grill from its winter slumber seemed only natural. To ease it–and myself–back into grilling, I wanted to stick with something tried and true: burgers.

That’s right. A bacon cheeseburger, with bacon grilled-cheese sandwiches replacing the bread. I know loading things down with bacon is “so 2008″ but, really, it still tastes awesome.
These things are not for the faint of heart, but it is actually less intimidating than you think. We were all able to finish our burgers AND have [...]

Who doesn’t like bacon? It’s everything meat should be. Flavorful, fatty, salty, smokey and fatty. I know, fatty is in there twice. I feel like I only get half the meat I should be getting when I eat some bacon. I mean, the fat is great, it’s part of what makes it so good (that [...]
