BBQ Pasta Salad

This is the perfect BBQ pasta salad side for a cookout. It’s a nice twist on your standard traditional macaroni salad (it has BBQ sauce in it!). Great with burgers, hot dogs, ribs, chicken… anything!

BBQ Pasta Salad

This Isn’t Grandma’s Pasta Salad

Use a spicier BBQ sauce for more kick in your BBQ pasta salad. You can use homemade sauce, too. I was in a bit of a rush so I grabbed a bottle of store-bought sauces. I also think cubed pepper jack cheese would go great in this salad, so I’ll add some next time I make it (which will be soon!). Roasted red pepper (or chopped pimentos) also adds a fantastic flavor.

I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.

Grilled Banana Sundae

I worked at a Baskin Robbins as a teenager. It is still one of my all-time favorite jobs. One of our biggest sellers (besides my awesome milkshakes) were banana sundaes. These are not those treats. We did not serve grilled banana sundaes at Baskin Robbins. We should have because they are crazy good! All the same flavors as the classic but with a nicely grilled ooey-gooey banana too!

Grilled Banana Sundae

Grilled Bananas? Optional

My wife is not a fan of grilled bananas, specially if they get a bit soft. And they do when grilled. So, if you’re the same way, just use regular ole fresh bananas and you’ll still have a great dessert. I think the grilled bananas add a little mystique to the dish. Something different.

Pantry Pizza Sauce

This isn’t a big-to-do, fru-fru, fancy pizza sauce. It doesn’t have wine or fresh basil or whatever. It isn’t like our favorite homemade sauce that takes a little effort (and a lot more ingredients) to throw together. Everything that goes in it is probably already in your pantry… hence the name, pantry pizza sauce.

Southwest Grilled Chicken French Bread Pizza

Easy And Delicious

What this pantry pizza sauce is is easy, fast, and tasty. It’s perfect for when you just want to throw together a quick pizza. And that’s exactly what I did. But don’t let things like ‘fast’ and ‘easy’ throw you. This sauce is packed with flavor. It’s not overly sweet. It’s not overly herby. It has the perfect balance of flavors.

This sauce is also great as a dipping sauce for breadsticks.

Banh Mi Hot Dogs

This is my take on Banh Mi hot dogs. It’s simple and straightforward. Nothing fancy. There’s a great contrast between the vinegary carrots, the cold crunchy cucumbers, creamy mayo, and of course the raw heat from the jalapenos. The carrot and cucumber mix is really what makes these dogs so great. It is also great on sandwiches or even hamburgers.

Banh Mi Hot Dogs

Freshly Different

For a little extra kick, mix in some Sriracha with the mayo. Mmmmm good! Or if heat isn’t your thing, leave off the jalapenos and still enjoy some great Banh Mi hot dogs. Also check if your local grocery store carries Japanese mayonnaise. It’s a bit thicker and not as sweet as your typical mayo.

Deli Hot Dogs

I wasn’t really skeptical about how these deli hot dogs would turn out. Well, maybe a bit. I wasn’t sure how the egg salad would taste on a hot-off-the-grill all-beef dog.

Well, my worries were unfounded because the combination is wonderful. I used well-chilled egg salad, which contrasted perfectly with the hot grilled hot dog. The black pepper is a must. It gives just a little ‘bite’ to contrast the creaminess of the egg salad.

Deli Hot Dogs

I Like Mine Spicy

I topped the deli hot dogs with McClure’s spicy pickle relish. It is amazing and has a great kick to it. Like the black pepper it contrasts well with the creamy potato salad. Come to think of it, everything from McClure’s is great. You can of course use a non-spicy pickle relish if you want. Or don’t use relish at all!

Sriracha Aioli

Nothing is as easy to throw together as a simple aioli like this Sriracha aioli. Make a big batch and keep it in a squeeze bottle in the fridge. It’s great for topping roasted turkey sandwiches. Or regular sandwiches, wraps, and hot dogs. And it’s great on burgers.

Any place you now use mayonnaise, substitute this Sriracha aioli instead. It’ll take something that was just ok and make it taste fantastic. Sriracha has a great spiced flavor, with just a little heat. If you’re not a fan of Sriracha you can substitute your favorite hot sauce instead.

Grilled San Antonio Hot Dog

Sloppy, dripping, spicy good. That’s really all you need to know. The best dogs, like a grilled San Antonio hot dog, make a big mess. Same goes for sandwiches and burgers, come to think of it. The messier the better. Wonder why we all love Sloppy Joes? Because they’re sloppy! Same thing applies here! I love chili on a hot dog. And cheese sauce, well that’s a given. And jalapenos for a kick! This is the ultimate dog!

Grilled San Antonio Hot Dog

Big Dogs Big Flavor

I used large all-beef dinner dogs to make this grilled San Antonio hot dog. Bigger dogs make for more flavor. And they cover the buns from end-to-end, side-to-side. My goodness, how I get sad when I see tiny wieners on a big ole bun. Your first four bites are nothing but bun! We aren’t having buns! We’re having hot dogs on buns! And while we’re on the subject of sadness, why is it so hard to find a package of hot dogs that matches the number of buns in a package? Can we get some coordination on that? 8 dogs? 8 buns!

Ranch Dipping Sauce for Wings

Visit my other site, For The Wing, for all things chicken-wing!

This is my go-to Ranch dipping sauce for wings. By using homemade Ranch mix I save a bundle on making this sauce versus using store-bought packets, so I usually make a big batch of it. There’s nothing worse than having a lot of hot wings and not having enough Ranch dipping sauce to cool them off.

Of course, this great sauce isn’t just for wings. You can put it on your salads, too. Or use it as a dip for vegetables. Any place you normally use Ranch dressing out of a bottle, substitute this homemade version.

Ranch Dipping Sauce for Wings

This sauce gets “happier” if you let it set in the fridge overnight.

Orange Creamsicle

It’s a nice hot day here in Indianapolis. The perfect weather to sit out on the deck and enjoy a super-cold orange creamsicle. Just like you remember from your childhood. Actually, better. Way better.

The really cool thing about this recipe is that you aren’t just restricted to making an orange creamsicle. Grab any juice you like and mix it in. Grape creamsicle? Why not?

Test Your Molds

Our ice pop popsicle molds hold just over 2 cups of liquid. Test yours first using water to find out how much they hold, and adjust the recipe if you need to. If you end up with too much of the mix just freeze it in any container. It’s great eaten with a spoon, too!
