Smoked Chicken Half & Spaghetti Squash

posted in: Chicken 0

Spaghetti Squash is extremely versatile as a side.  One of the most common uses for Spaghetti Squash is with or without sauce as a substitute for pasta.  Spaghetti squash contains many nutrients, including folic acid, potassium, vitamin A, and beta carotene. It is low in calories, averaging 42 calories per 1-cup (155 grams) serving.  When cooked, the flesh falls away from the fruit in ribbons or strands like spaghetti.  It can be baked, boiled, steamed, microwaved, and of course you know I’m going to see about smoking/grilling a Spaghetti Squash on my Traeger PTG with Pacific Pellet Gourmet BBQ Hickory Wood Pellets.  The PTG was just big enough to accommodate a small Spaghetti Squash and a Chicken Half!

Do you have one of those Ready-to-Eat Hams in your refrigerator or freezer that you bough over the holidays when they were on sale to get you into that grocery or big box store?  Well it’s time to break it out and provide your family with a mouth watering dinner!  Just like Turkey … why only have Ham during holidays?  With Hams costing in the $2.25/lb range these days that 8½ pound Shank Portion Ham I picked up at 88¢/lb ($7.52) works out perfect.  I only wish I had picked up a couple extra Hams … Here’s one smoked/cooked to perfection on a MAK 2 Star Wood Pellet BBQ Smoker-Grill using Pacific Pellet Gourmet BBQ Hickory Pellets.

Camp Chef Grilled Asparagus

posted in: Vegetables 1

There are so many ways of fixing scrumptious Asparagus and this is one method that anyone can use in their back yard, or on the road RVing/camping.  Using my Camp Chef 2 burner stove I preheated a Grill/Griddle to 425ºF.  Verified the griddle temperature with a Laser Thermometer.  Used a Heat Diffuser under the griddle to dissipate the heat evenly.

Lightly coated the Asparagus with Annie’s Roasted Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and seasoned with Fagundes using a gallon size Ziplock bag.  The bag provides a quick and clean efficient method to season the Asparagus.  Grilled the Asparagus for about 10 minutes until the desired level of al dante was reached.  Turned the Asparagus quarter turns to achieve the nice grill marks.  Grill marks do not cook the product any faster or better but it sure enhances their appearance!!
