Pork belly is what bacon is made out of, but it is not bacon. Bacon is cured meat and pork belly is the uncured version. This recipe is to make little pork dice that will melt in your mouth while also being jam packed with flavour. These little cubes are fatty and flavourful, so make sure to fast in advance or spend some extra time on the treadmill. Pork belly contains about 50% fat, so the goal here is to render down some of that fat to soften each bite but also to cook the meat and apply enough smoke to make them dance across your taste buds.

Chicken Lollipops are a fun way to spice up drumsticks. Kicking up the flavour with a great Cajun seasoning combined with a spicy sauce and great presentation will wow your friends. Lollipops are delicious, fun to eat and come with their own built in handle.

Stuffed mushrooms are one of those things on a restaurant menu that always draws my eyes. They can be stuffed with all sorts of things like cream cheese or seafood, bread crumbs, sausage and more. My favorite is cream cheese stuffed with double garlic butter from Boars Night Out, but don’t be afraid to mix it up because one time I made an amazing Chorizo stuffed mushroom that blew my mind served on top of pasta.

Duck hunting season is drawing to a close and in Alberta duck hunters are allowed to limit out at around 8 birds a day depending on the time of year, which means there is a lot of ducks out there that need to be smoked! Smoked duck is packed with flavour because it is naturally more fatty than other forms of poultry like chicken and turkey. Our aim with this recipe is to have amazing, shredded duck legs and thighs and perfectly cooked breast that isn’t dried out.

One of my favorite Christmas recipes is Rosemary smoked sweet and spicy nuts. I make it every year, but I have never written the recipe down until now. This is one of those recipes where you can make a big batch early in December and toss it in the fridge and munch on them right up until Christmas. Its far healthier than crushing a whole bag of potato chips too, so keep the holiday pounds off with this healthier snack nut mix.
