The Heart Of Texas

  3 lbs fresh buffalo sirloin cubed 1 lb fresh pork sausage 2 large yellow onions 15 ozs beef stock 12 fresh vine ripened tomatoes blanched, de-skinned and chopped 2 tbs cumin 1 tbs coriander 2 tbs Mexican oregano pulverized in a spice mill 2 tbs Anaheim pepper powder 3 tbs guajillo pepper powder One entire garlic pod finely chopped 2 tbs fresh cracked black peppercorns 1 tbs sea salt 2 tbs olive oil more or less On a medium heat add olive oil and pork sausage. Let cook and crumble in pot. When some of the fat begins to render add the onions. Cook till slightly clear and add the buffalo. Add the stock and the rest of the ingredients and stir. Bring almost to a boil and then reduce the heat to a slow simmer for 4 hours or longer. I add half the coriander and cumin at first and then the remainder right at the end of the simmer. After I cube my buffalo sirloins I marinate in a bowl for a while. I sprinkle with granulated garlic, onion powder, fresh cracked blac...

Method: Butterfly, peal and de-vein jumbo white gulf shrimp. In large pan add shrimp, soy sauce and black pepper. Mix well really getting your hands into it. Sprinkle with onion powder, garlic powder and minced garlic and basil. All amounts are to taste. Add a healthy dollop of extra virgin olive oil and a can of Dole crushed pineapple and a cup or two of Dole pineapple juice. You can substitute wine, if you like. I put a little honey in the mixture and cover and marinate for a while. Cooking uncovered on the hot side of a smoker or directly over the coals on a backyard pit, mix in a rolling action as to cook all shrimp evenly. On a hot fire it does not take long. Be careful not to over cook the shrimp. I like the flavor a hot pecan fire adds to the final product and mesquite works well too. As you can tell, this is a flexible recipe and relatively easy to prepare for large groups. If you would like to spice it up a bit, cayenne pepper is a good addition. If I am not mistaken, that pre...

Baked Turkey like no one else in the world? First make sure the bird is totally thawed. If it is still frozen on the inside run warm water over it until it is completely thawed and at room temperature. Even if the bird is at room temperature pull out all the packages of organs and set aside for dirty rice or giblet gravy or whatever. Rinse the bird inside and out. Drain it and take paper towels and dry it the best you can. Pull out at least a full 2 yards of heavy-duty aluminum foil and triple layer the foil to make a large "boat". Put the bird in the boat and dust the entire body inside and out with onion powder first, then granulated or powdered garlic, paprika, black pepper, Lawry’s seasoned salt. You could substitute sea salt or kosher salt but do not over salt as the soy is high in sodium. Drizzle with honey inside and out, not too much but just enough to make it cling to the bird. Add more of the ingredients to the inside of the bird than the outside as it will mix with...

I made a delicious, creamy and extremely healthful salad dressing. Using a Vitamix blender I took about 4 cups of fresh pineapple, 2 fuji apples, 1/4th bunch of cilantro, 2 small avocados, the juice of 2 limes and about 1 T+- Baja Gold sea salt and 2 cups of water. I blended it up real good. It is very flavorful and very good for the body and soul. If you want to spice it up, throw in a fresh jalapeno or two.
