Poor-Man-Burnt-Ends_HERO

Burnt ends classically are made from the point end of a smoked brisket. These poor man’s burnt ends use smaller chuck roast, which means they take less time to cook and cost less, too.  Yet these BBQ bites are sweet, sticky, beefy, and tender—and hard to stop eating.

What's better than mac and cheese? A homemade 4 cheese mac and cheese by Diva Q. But skip the elbow macaroni and use cavatappi, a thick curly tube that grabs hold of all that cheese.

The Kentucky hot brown has been a tradition since its creation at Louisville's Brown Hotel in 1926. The open-face sandwich, made on the Flatrock griddle, is a great way to use leftover Thanksgiving turkey, but you can make it with deli turkey as well.  A cheesy Mornay sauce covers the turkey, tomato, and bread. As per tradition, it’s served with strips of bacon on top.

Lemon-Chicken_Hero

“This is something everyone should have in their arsenal of recipes at home,” says Diva Q of this Greek-inspired chicken dinner. Why? First off, flavor. Her lemon pepper chicken recipe features a TON of lemon—zest, juice, and slices—plus lots of garlic and black pepper. And because it's spatchcocked, the bird cooks up evenly and super juicy, too. The recipe directs you to smoke the chicken first at a low temperature to get that nice wood-fired flavor and then to crank the heat to crisp the skin. If you are short on time, however, you can simply cook the chicken at a steady 350°F and it'll be done sooner.

Sunday-Lunch-Lasagna-HERO

For his new cookbook, Cook with Confidence, Dennis Prescott collected his favorite recipes for sharing with family and friends. One magnificent example: This fragrant and meaty lasagna. Dennis is the first to admit that making it is a bit of a commitment, but, that you'll feel a beautiful sense of accomplishment. You can also spread out the work; for instance, simmering the sauce a day or so ahead. And, of course, lasagna improves upon sitting, so you can always bake it the day before you plan to serve it.

Jalapeno-chicken-sandwich_Hero

Meat Church's Matt Pittman gives his buddy Judd McCutchen full credit for turning him on to this easy but delicious way to cook chicken thighs. The thighs get marinated with a whole can of pickled jalapeños, seasoned, and then grilled and basted with a buttery hot sauce. The chicken can be served as is, used in tacos, or quesadillas, or made into an epic sandwich as is done here. But don’t worry if you’re not a fan of spicy foods—this chicken packs some heat but it’s not too hot.

Rib-Sandwich_HERO

Find out why Chef Tom Hollingworth calls his take on a famous fast-food item “the perfect sandwich.” The key is to cook ribs until the bones easily pull out; this is not the way everyone likes to eat straight-ahead ribs, but it’s crucial here. If bourbon is not your thing, change up the spritz to half apple cider vinegar and half apple juice.
