How to Make Guacamole

What is it about guacamole? When those avocados are ripe (and on sale) it brings out the need for guacamole. If the guacamole and salsa are great then I can build the rest of the food around it!

Tytus takes us through the steps of making Guacamole. I'm going to share a few tips for picking avocados, knives for aspiring young chefs, and recommend a cut-resistant glove for extra safety. You can find the recipe HERE.

PIZZA! Start to Finish!

Pizza! Start to Finish! Is a promise we gave you in "trial run 2". We said we would revisit PIZZA in more detail and here we have! There's no food shortage in Barton's house. We say this because you can whip up some dough and throw all kinds of leftovers on top and call it a pizza! LOL The boys and I have fun with this! We use either a pizza stone or a pizza steal in the oven. We have both. Some people feel the need to let it cool down and remove it after use. We leave the stone/steel in there all the time. We cook right on top of it. Doesn't matter if its a sheet tray of cookies or a casserole in a glass dish. Here's a recipe to get you started... Easy Bread and Pizza Dough Recipe

Season and Smash Grilled Chicken Technique

We're not going to keep you here long. Our video is about 8 minutes. In it, you'll find instructions for enhancing and tenderizing solid cuts of meat. It's a simple technique used best on chicken.

 It will speed up your cooking time when you take it to the grill.

• The pieces are thinner, cooking faster
• Being uniform in thickness they can be flipped at the same time
• They will all be done close to the same time.

AND there may be a few extra tips for grilling vegetables thrown in for added value, for fun.

Let us know how we are doing. Tytus is getting better at filming and our next buy will be a microphone to make the audio better. 

What else? Give us some constructive criticism.

• Do you like the banner on our Youtube page? 
• Did you like the older one with the family better?
• How is the video?
• Do you know how to subscribe to our channel?
• Should we make an instructional video on subscribing?
• What DO or DON'T you like?

There you have a few starter questions to help you think about what we can work on.

Best Grilled Turkey Burger

Turkey burgers can be a hard thing. Some brands grind it to fine and the texture in your mouth can be dry and mealy. To conquer this, people like to add bread crumbs or eggs to bind them. Or trap moisture in. I use a brand from Aldis that has good consistency. I do not use eggs or breadcrumbs. This allows more people to eat. Sometimes Turkey lacks that good OOMF of meatiness that a beef burger gives. To add a level of that back into the burger, I have a few ingredient suggestions in the video. Keep the Turkey mixture as cold as you can before grilling or pan-frying to keep it firm. But don't be afraid of a loose mixture. Work fast, patty quick, get it on the heat...it will get firm with cooking. In this video, I realized I am not that glamorous to look at. That's ok. It's 2020 yall need something to laugh at! LOL

Salsa in 4 minutes and 4 ingredients!

Restaurant quality salsa made with 4 ingredients! This salsa takes 4 minutes or less to make. You can add as many extra ingredients as you like, but the taste is excellent by itself. 

Tytus and I decided to put this video together as we were making some salsa for Nachos. We're also releasing it early in case you need a quick recipe for Taco Tuesday! LOL
