Super Simple Pork Skewers

These super simple pork skewers take 4 ingredients, about 5 minutes of prep and 7-10 minutes of cook time on your grill!

Sous Vide Pork Chops

How do you make delicious, perfectly cooked pork chops at home?  With a Sous Vide Circulator!

Whole Roasted Chicken

Feed a family of four for $10?! It can be done, and it's easy!  Roast a chicken on your outdoor grill along side some chopped vegetables for a well balanced, tasty meal.

Tri-Tip Roast

Did somebody say "steak?"  Hell yes I did.  I'm firing up the ol' Traeger and reverse searing this hunk of meat.  It's a great way to serve a group of meat eaters without breaking the bank.

Smoked Pork Belly Tacos

 You know where bacon comes from?  Pork belly.  Think of these like a tortilla stuffed with big chunks of bacon topped with a zesty pico de gallo and tangy cilantro sour cream.

Smoked Mac N Cheese

I'm not going to lie to you, Mac N Cheese out of the box is damn good.  This is better.  A hint of smoke on top of layers of cheese and pasta makes for the ultimate comfort food.

Rack of Lamb

Whoa, whoa, whoa...stop the clock!  Someone got fancy!  Yes, a rack of lamb cooked low and slow to impress your date.  Pour a glass of Pinot, put on some Miles Davis and dim the lights because it is on.

Crispy Chicken Sandwich

A deep fried chicken breast drizzled with honey and topped with coleslaw, pickles and jalapenos on a pub bun.  It's time to take your taste buds for a ride.

Rib Eye Steak: The Reverse Sear Method

I know what you're thinking, "I know how to cook a steak."  I thought the same thing, until I got my Traeger and started using this method.  I was doing it all wrong.  The reverse sear method uses low heat to cook the steak through and then high heat to sear the outside just before serving.  You get a tender, juicy internal along with a seared and flavorful crust.

Wing Wednesday: Buffalo Wings

With the NFL Playoffs right around the corner it's time to get you prepped for the big game with the RobCooks.com Wing Wednesday series.  I'll be posting my favorite wing recipes up until the big game.  For this first installment I'm using a restaurant style buffalo wing recipe.

Broccoli Beef

Take out Chinese (or eat23, grubhub, bite squard, prime now, munchery) is expensive, make this version of Broccoli Beef at home with some inexpensive ingredients and save the trip to the restaurant.

Barbecue Pulled Pork

A classic barbecue food, pulled pork, this time with a kick.  This works for either a large pork shoulder with enough food for a crowd, or smaller shoulder roast for your family.  Plan an hour to an hour and a half per pound of cooking time plus another hour to rest before pulling and serving.

Cornish Game Hens

Don't like to share?  Then a Cornish Hen (or Cornish Game Hen) is for you.  This little guys come in single serving size so you can make them all up the same way or, if you want to share, try different spices and rubs on a few and split them among your family and friends.

Thanksgiving Cranberry Sauce

When I was a kid, I thought cranberry sauce simply came from a can.  Pop the top, slide out the "tube" of cranberry sauce, and slice into discs.  No one would touch it with a ten foot spoon and it'd simply go to where it should have gone in the first place, the trash can.  Those of you reading this in 10 years will think "ah hem, that should go in the compost bin."  I know, I know.

Smoked Turkey on a Traeger Pellet Grill

Thanksgiving is about spending time with friends and family.  Not being stuck in the kitchen cooking.  Cook that bird on your smoker on the patio and get out of the kitchen.

Classic Tomato Soup and Savory Grilled Cheese

Another classic combo!  This isn't your kids canned soup and american grilled cheese.  This is a classic, homemade tomato soup and a savory grilled cheese sandwich combo.  Great for these cold, blustery, Fall days.

Slow Cooker Chili

I've made variations of this recipe for tailgates and get-togethers and it always gets great reviews,  This most recent version is my best yet.

BBQ Chicken Thighs

Chicken breasts, white meat, is fine for a salad, or chicken tenders.  But the really flavorful part of the bird is the dark meat, the thighs and legs.  Below is my recipe for juicy, tender and tasty BBQ chicken thighs.

I want my baby back, baby back, baby back...NOW! Quick Ribs
