Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Literally the best fried chicken wings in the history of chicken

    • als102 on August 24, 2025

      Fully agree with the name of this recipe!

  • New Orleans BBQ shrimp with jalapeño grits

    • als102 on July 21, 2025

      This is stupidly good, and makes a ton! Will definitely be making this again.

  • Grilled cider-brined pork tenderloin

    • pvia on May 04, 2020

      The brine is just right for pork tenderloin. The cranberry-maple glaze is spot on.

    • ChuckDurn on January 12, 2026

      I’ve made this recipe a couple of times, and it comes out perfectly. I’m not a fan of turnips, and this recipe didn’t change that, so I just replace it with a different starch. Based on the amazing taste that the brine gives the tenderloin, I now make the brine and use it for pork chops as well, and they similarly are tender and delicious.

  • Blackened prime burger sliders

    • als102 on August 24, 2025

      Really good and simple! The goat cheese spread is amazing.

  • House brine

    • als102 on July 21, 2025

      This is absolutely amazing, and about to become my go-to way to prepare chicken for lunches every week. Really wonderful flavor and super moist.

  • Signature fry dredge

    • als102 on August 24, 2025

      This was way better than I was expecting it to be. The creole seasoning with tomato really shines through, and the chicken I used it on ended up super crisp.
