Grilled Pork Chop with Green Almond and Olive Relish

Green almonds have become one of our favorite spring treats and we’re constantly coming up with new ways to enjoy them.  This simple relish, which pairs fresh, crunchy green almonds with mild, buttery Castelvetrano olives and fresh rosemary, could not possibly be any easier to make.  It’s great with grilled pork chops, but it would be just as good with fish, on a salad or with a good creamy goat cheese.

Beef and Guinness Stew with Wild Mushrooms

Beef and Guinness stew is a pub classic with its roots firmly bedded in the deep soil of Irish cooking and culture. What could be more Irish than dark, creamy Guinness stout and that Irish mainstay, potatoes? Add carrots and onions (both vegetables that grow well in Ireland’s often fickle climate), and a few modest bits of beef, and you have the makings of a hearty meal fit for St. Patrick himself. Mushrooms may not be an ingredient that immediately …

Cherry-Bison Burgers with Cherry Catsup

You might not immediately associate fresh cherries with burgers, but it can’t be a coincidence that Michigan cherry season comes right in the middle of summer, just when grilling season is at its peak. It’s an opportunity too tempting to resist! In this recipe, fresh cherries are paired with a classic flame-grilled burger in not just one, but two very different ways. But before we start cooking, let’s make something perfectly clear; it’s essential that you use the best quality …

Grilled Balsamic Glazed Steaks, Italian-Style

In Italy, grilled steak is epitomized by bistecca alla fiorentina. Try our twist on the classic recipe for an easy barbecue, featuring succulent steaks simply served with lemon, Italian-style. It all starts with a great steak. In the classic version of this Florentine dish, a very specific cut of meat known as bistecca nel filetto is traditionally used, but here in the United States, a good quality, thick bone-in steak is a reasonable substitute: a porterhouse, ribeye or t-bone is ideal. Once …

Country Comfort: Ramp & Jowl Bacon Gravy

It’s not surprising that most classic recipes are built on the solid foundation of good old-fashioned country cooking. Ramp and Jowl Bacon Gravy is insanely good over hot, homemade biscuits (check our recipe for Ramp Buttermilk Biscuits), but would be equally at home gracing a roasted veal chop in a fancy white-tablecloth restaurant. No wonder that down-home ingredients like ramps have found their way onto the menus of so many upscale dining establishments! A spoonful or two of this rich, …

Ramp Chimichurri

It’s now officially spring, and while winter weather is still hanging on across much of the country, we can’t help but anticipate warmer weather and all the wild spring bounty that comes along with it. Fresh ramps, or wild leeks as they’re known in the north, are beginning to shoot up and should be ready for harvest in a few more days, but in the meanwhile, we’re satisfying our cravings with plump, mellow ramp bulbs that were frozen at the …
