Roasted Mustard Maple Glazed Carrots
The bite of mustard, the sweet note of maple and the tang of red wine vinegar combine to make one hell of a glaze, taking these carrots to the next level. Normally, in the circles I run in, carrots are not the highlight of a meal, rather an oft overlooked side piece used more for a pop of color than banging flavor. Fork tender, slightly sweet, tart, and packing a slight heat, these carrots stole the show.

Green Chile Cheddar Hoecakes
When I first started dating Jenny decades ago, she introduced me to these things called hoecakes. At first, being the native northerner I am, I was skeptical. Hoecakes? You mean pancakes? Why are they hoecakes? You mean johnnycakes(I see you Mentor, Ohio)? Doesn't matter what you call them, any doubt quickly vanished after that first crunchy bite of these creamy beauties! Hoecakes have become a staple when we barbecue. Cornbread? Sure, alright but hoecakes are just better.

Slammin' Beef Jerky
This smoked beef jerky combines two of my favorite flavor profiles - the sweet and fruity heat of Jalapeño Business and the incredibly flavorful umami bomb of Somethin' To Beef About. I smoked it over cherrywood, which lends itself well to the fruity flavors of the marinade. This jerky turns out slightly sweet with a sneaky heat from jalapenos and aleppo chiles and the snappy tang of vinegar to balance it all out.
