Left Over Eggs?
Easter was today, and whether not you celebrate Easter I hope you celebrate stuffed eggs, or what we call them in the South, Deiled eggs. Maybe the reason they are that is because they are too good and not the healthiest option for the use of eggs... but none the...

Brisket Time
Last week I didn't post this recipe, but I did make it and eat it! Brisket is one of my wife's favorite meals. I had never attempted to smoke a brisket before, but after we had it at lunch a couple of weeks ago I decided I would try my hand at it. The only hard part...

Greek Salad – Pates Style
For those of you out there still holding fast to your New Year’s health goals, first off, good for you! and Secondly, this recipe will help stick to it through the mountain of wings and rivers of Rotel at your neighborhood Super Bowl gathering. It’s a take on the classic Greek salad. We omitted the lettuce and basil. The result is a fresh, light, filling salad that can hang with any Super Bowl fare.
Super Bowl Snacks
And it happens to coincide with the Super Bowl. Now, there are many things that I (Jeff) like about the Super Bowl, but they have nothing to do with football (here, I surrender my man card) and everything to do with what surrounds the game. I love any reason to get together with friends, I always enjoy seeing the half time performance even if I don’t care for who the performer(s) are, and of course the commercials.
