This Jack & Coke BBQ Sauce was created in an attempt to come up with a great summer BBQ sauce. I had made BBQ sauces before with the addition of Jack Daniels, which had me thinking about a Jack and Coke. That’s where the inspiration came from. The addition of orange juice and zest brightens everything up and chipotle peppers at a smoky hint of spice. Make a double batch and keep some on hand for all your grilling needs this summer. This sauce would be wonderful on BBQ ribs! It is so nice out here in Calgary today. We are still dealing with Coronavirus, so unfortunately not much company…

It was a super short trip with only 3 full days there so we really just took advantage of the chance to relax and enjoy the sun. Typically I’m not a fan of all-inclusive resorts, as I’m a self-admitted food snob and I hate the tourist trap. However, the resort we choose for this trip had pretty decent food…

BBQ Chicken Pizza
I’m trying to use up what we have in our freezer, and I had taken out a package of ground chicken this morning that we bought from a local farmer this year. I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do with it. My problem is I usually have too many ideas going around in my head for recipes that I find it hard to narrow down and commit. The choice was made when I saw I also had a bit of very ripe fresh pineapple to use up in the fridge so I decided a pizza may be in order. We make homemade pizzas quite a bit in our…
