Single Guy’s Kitchen

Men love steak. It’s one of the laws of the land. Why else would steakhouses exist in every city, town, and major road intersection? Everyone knows that a steak is best prepared in the backyard over a gas flame or a set of hot charcoals, but what if that is not available? [...]

This weekend while on vacation I tried out a new recipe for grilled chicken called Roadside Chicken. This grilled chicken recipe is supposedly inspired from the sweet succulent chicken you would find at roadside vendors and other outdoor gatherings like the state fair.

As much as I hate to admit it, I have to give Rachael Ray credit for this one. I saw the recipe on her show “30 Minute Meals” a long time ago and saved it. Probably two years later I’ve finally gotten around to trying it. I have a bunch of saved [...]

The weather is warming up and the sun is out, what better way to enjoy it than by eating outside! Go out on your porch or deck and enjoy the spring time breeze. No outside seating where you live?  Head to a park or just open a window and let some fresh air [...]

Sports and food are undeniably connected.  People sing about peanuts and cracker jacks during the 7th inning stretch and suck down Mint Juleps at the Kentucky Derby.  Tailgating is as much a part of the college football experience as going to the actual game!  I’d say the only thing that makes watching sports more enjoyable [...]

Easter Sunday just seems to lend itself to a nice brunch. I remember growing up with a honey baked ham almost every year. Spending Easter with a vegetarian this year rules out the ham and most traditional items from my childhood (my mom seasoned just about everything with bacon grease) and besides, we [...]
