Happy Father’s Day!
I know people think I do a lot of cooking,
but truth be known I have a resident chef…
We have a multi-generational household and he and I tag team
the cooking and shopping for meals
Sooo…
In honor of my chef son, who is one of the world’s greatest Dads,
I am re-sharing some of his very best culinary creations
and magazine worthy presentations!
Let’s start with
Appetizers!
HHjr is famous for his Asian Firecrackers
Fried wontons stuffed with sausage, cream cheese, green chiles
and served with sweet and sour sauce in a pineapple bowl
Italian Party Bread is made with cut up biscuit dough,
Marinara sauce, and Italian meats and cheeses and baked in a bundt pan
It’s impossible to resist grabbing a bite!
Leftover pulled pork tops cheesy potato skins with BBQ sauce
for amazing Pulled Pork Potato Skins
Instead of batter fried onion rings
try wrapping them in bacon and grilling {or baking} them
Maple Bacon Wrapped Onion Rings
Sides
This Summer Tomato Salad Stack is his knock-off
of a salad from Hot n’ Hot, a famous local restaurant
It is guaranteed to set eyes popping!
potatoes layered with cheeses and cream and baked to golden perfection
Ryan’s Garden Tomato Pie holds some surprises,
under all those cherry tomatoes lies a combination
of summer squash, spinach cheese and prosciutto
Main Dishes
A TrompoKing is a vertical skewer
He loaded the skewer with pork shoulder slices in between
a pineapple top and bottom
and cooked the meat on his Big Green Egg grill,
low and slow,
for the amazing Tacos Al Pastor
Bourbon BBQ Chicken with Grilled Pineapple
A perfect summer meal
BBQ Salmon is cooked with a buttery brown sugar Asian glaze
My favorite recipe of his just might be Scallops with Creamy Bacon Pasta
My son is famous for his pizzas too
He loves to cook them in his Outdoor Kitchen pizza oven
that he built himself!
He makes the Best Pizza Dough Ever
He has quite a following,
and his youngest son often helps him in the kitchen and on the grill
Charlie Brown and CC think their uncle is really funny
Try these tasty combos
Corn & Asparagus, Fresh Peach with Sausage & Balsamic
HHjr doesn’t make desserts,
but he loves ice cream
and gave me an ice cream maker, hint, hint
I made him a batch of Raspberry Dream Ice Cream
A refreshing summer dessert!
Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible Dads out there!
I hope you have a delicious day!
