East Creek Grilled Oysters
Oysters are a simple treat that are either hit or miss with your taste buds.
You either love them or hate them…and there is no in between.
For me.. I love em.’
I could devour dozens in a sitting, but that would not be fiscally responsible, now would it?
One needs to save money for good wine as well.
Honey Bourbon Salmon with Cracked Black Pepper and Local Potatoes with Provence Herbs
Ahhhhh, I really wish that you could smell my kitchen right now.
The sweet scents of brown sugar and bourbon…
The familiar aroma of potatoes, onions and sage…
And the acceptance of Autumn is finally in my house.
Buffalo Cauliflower Steaks with Blue Cheese Dressing.
Sunday is fast approaching and you need something for the big game, but are sick and tired of the same old buffalo wings and pasta.
Well fear not my friend. We are going vegetarian and running towards the goal line.
Old Fashioned Onion Rings with a Make-Over.
Welcome to your latest addiction.
Onion rings for dinner?
So what?
Sometimes you just want to eat what you want to eat and if that means breaking the rules of what we are told is right and wrong..then arrest me Officer Foodie.
( but let me bring my onion rings with me)
Tomatoes, Mozzarella and Basil . The Ultimate in Summer Food.
They are one of the simplest pleasures in the garden. Tomatoes. There are thousands of varieties of tomatoes and it seems as if we are eating them up as fast as we can. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Americans eat between 22- 24 pounds of tomatoes per person, per year and more than half of that is from ketchup and sauce. In my yard alone, I usually plant about 6 different types, from tiny grapefruit tomatoes ( perfect for salads) to the big juicy Beefsteaks that love to find their way onto white bread with lots of mayo. I’ve got tomatoes from June to October and love everyday that I can go out back and take care of my babies.
Chargrilled Rib Eye Steak and A Whole Lotta Love.
Memorial Day is a very important day. If it’s not a very important day to you…it should be.
A day to remember, a day to continue living and a day to give thanks to those that have given the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. Their lives.
I like to honor those that gave so much in my prayers and honor my family and friends my grillin’ like a villain.
In particular, my grilling.
It’s time to rock out with my charcoal out, so grab a napkin and get ready to drool baby…
Farfalle Alfredo. You Can Thank Me Later.
Pasta night. Yup…tonight was a pasta night.
To my wife, when I say, “Hun… tonight is a pasta night.”, it means two things:
1) I need comfort food because I’m frazzled and stressed from something and 2) get ready for a plate of carb lovin awesomeness, that is not your Mama’s boring pasta dish.
Yup…that’s right…I just went there.
What’s that you say? “Bring it!”
Oh…It’s brought…..
Let’s get to carbo warfare….
Your Table is Ready. The Food You Love is Born.
Welcome to first “real” post of The Food You Love.
I am very excited to be blogging in such a pure style of culinary journalism that will showcase my passion, desire and love affair with all things gastronomically fun and delicious.
I hope that you enjoy my pictures, recipes and join in the dinner party.
Let me start by giving you a little bit of a background of me and what I’m about.
I’m a writer, a blogger, a cook, a visionary, a lover of fried food and cheese.
I’m a husband, a father, a mass coffee consumer and owner of over 2,000 cookbooks.
I love to eat breakfast for dinner.
I take more time picking out the perfect tomato than the average person takes to purchase a car.
I went to, what has been said to be, the world’s 3rd best restaurant, The Carnivore, in Kenya..and forgot my camera.
My biggest secret is that I love Velveeta and I once ate 29 oysters in one sitting.
Now that you have some insight into what you are getting into, I hope you have a blast and check us

Claritas est etiam processus dynamicus, qui sequitur mutationem consuetudium lectorum. Mirum est notare quam littera gothica, quam nunc putamus parum claram, anteposuerit litterarum formas humanitatis per seacula quarta decima et quinta decima. Eodem modo typi, qui nunc nobis videntur parum clari, fiant sollemnes in futurum.
Typi non habent claritatem insitam; est usus legentis in iis qui facit eorum claritatem. Investigationes demonstraverunt lectores legere me lius quod ii legunt saepius. Claritas est etiam processus dynamicus, qui sequitur mutationem consuetudium lectorum. Mirum est notare quam littera gothica.
