Grilled pork tenderloin is tricky, but with this recipe, you'll get tender, juicy pork flavored with a spicy sriracha-soy or a sweet bourbon-maple marinade. Pork tenderloin in general is notoriously difficult to really cook properly, but it's so affordable that you can take the risk to practice (that's what I did before I tried my... Continue Reading →
What meat-eating person doesn't love good steak tips? When it comes to quality steak, I'm a proponent of less is more. A little salt, a little pepper, maybe a pat of butter melting on top if you're feeling fancy and that's all you need for a good steak. Good beef shouldn't need anything else unless...

That meant grilling up some eggplant. Personally, I'm not a big fan of eggplant anymore (unless it's in some baba ghanoush!). I got... Continue Reading →
During my bachelor party weekend, a few of my friends decided to take me out to dinner on Friday night while we waited for some of the other guys to show up. We had a couple of suites rented at the Hilton Boston, so we looked for somewhere to eat close by that would allow... Continue Reading →
Kofta, Kafta, or Kafka is often characterized as the Middle Eastern version of a hamburger. Yes, it's made with ground beef, ground lamb, or both, but that's pretty much where the similarity ends. Kofta is more like a sausage without the sausage casing. Sure, you can make this into patties like a burger and eat... Continue Reading →
