Stuffed Pork Tenderloin
There are a few riffs on certain recipes that make it into the rotation time and time again - bacon wrapped pork tenderloin is one of those recipes and we riff often!
Our latest incarnation is a mouthful - bacon wrapped pork tenderloin slow smoked over post oak and slathered with Somethin' Somethin' Sauce to get that sticky glaze. Oh, did I mention its stuffed? We threw together a mixture of bleu, gruyere, parmesan and cream cheeses with Somethin' To Cluck About' to take this Somethin' To Beef About' rubbed tenderloin over the top. The smoky sweetness of the glazed bacon and tenderloin contrast perfectly with the funky, herby creaminess of the cheese filling.

The tangy sweet heat of our Jalapeño Business sauce is an incredible pairing with trout - slightly smoky, bright citrus flavors with the funkiness of star anise, cardamom and other pungent flavors capped off a delicious sweetness that builds into a medium heat. How can you not be satisfied?

Wagyu Beef Short Ribs
These amazingly marbled wagyu beef short ribs from E3 Ranch & Co provided the perfect avenue for our sweet, smoky heat of Jalapeno Business and the salty, peppery, umami chocked flavors of Somethin' To Beef About. Of course I had to pull the trigger and make these special! The flavors that came off this cook were out of this world!

Cheese Stuffed Burgers
This monstrous all grass finished beef burger, liberally seasoned with Somethin' To Beef About and stuffed with a spicy chipotle cheddar is sure to squelch those cravings! We seared it on a screaming hot cast iron pan and nestled it on a bed of skillet onions with jalapeños. Finally, we capped it with a toasted brioche bun brushed with cluck butter!

Smoked Baby Back Ribs
Plenty of get togethers have revolved around the smoker and ribs are a staple of that. During this time of quarantine, virtual parties are a thing, and there is nothing like some baby backs, delivered to their door, to make your family and friends happy!

Steakhouse Style Egg Salad
Lately, I've been obsessed with eggs and the development of Somethin' To Beef About with its acidic, umami and spicy components only fueled that fire. I spent a decent amount of time a few weeks ago perfecting luscious, creamy, steakhouse style egg salad recipe. Quarantine, am I right?

Baked Pulled Pork
When B.T. Leigh's does larger shows, I like to sample our products on baked pulled pork. I've been told it's the best pulled pork people have ever had, even if it's not smoked.
