Finger Lickin’ Chicken
Thanks to my friend and teaching colleague, Jill Rumbaugh, I learned about the amazing “Kickin’ Chicken Finger Lickin” seasoning rub several years ago, during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a simple recipe for cooking chicken quarters, but you can use this spice rub on any type of chicken. Chicken thighs (bone-in or boneless) and chicken …
Brisket Burnt Ends
Brisket burnt ends were one of my mom’s favorite barbecue meats. I love Texas-style barbecue brisket so much, however, it’s not often I make burnt ends. They are always popular when I do, however, and they never last long. In the attached cook video, I tried preparing two different varieties of burnt ends. Next time, …
Log: Smoked Chicken and Asparagus
Tonight’s dinner wasn’t really anything special but boy did it ever taste GREAT to me! After watching the Netflix series “Chef’s Table” on BBQ, featuring Tootsie from Snow’s BBQ in Texas, I’ve enjoyed cooking chicken leg quarters more than ever. They are VERY inexpensive (sadly because of our inhumane factory farming methods) and messier than …

Saturday night we celebrated (early) our son’s 25th birthday, and I cooked some filet mignon steaks as well as ribeyes.

Brisket Jalapeño Poppers
I’ve cooked jalapeño poppers several different ways, but this is our family favorite! It’s also my favorite way to eat leftover beef brisket! Shout out to Firebirds Meat Market in Oklahoma City, where I learned jalapeño poppers can become SO MUCH better with a little brisket inside! Shout out also to Matt of Meat Church’s …
Log: Smoker Pizza
Heating up a frozen pizza does not qualify as “cooking” for some people, but we’ve been experiencing with both homemade pizzas and store-bought frozen pizzas as a quick after-church Sunday lunch for a few months. Results have been good, so I’ll document and share what we’ve been doing and like the best now. Costco has …
Favorite BBQ Rubs & Seasonings
Here are some of my favorite rubs and seasonings I use for backyard barbecue as well as other dishes I like to cook. Most of these are available at Champion BBQ Supply here in Oklahoma City. The best source (because of supply chain issues I think) for Meat Church rubs is Buc-ees gas stations down …
Carolina Style Grilled Chicken
Truth be told, I have no idea if this is how Carolina-style smoked chicken really / officially tastes. But I found this barbecue sauce at our local Champion BBQ Supply Store in Oklahoma City, and it turned out great! One of the employees recommended the Piggy Bank Pork & Rib Rub, so I tried them …
