Today I checked out a new Rub from Trader's Joe's, the Coffee & Garlic BBQ Rub. I also get to check my new Propane Torch for searing. So very easy and basic. Apply the Rub to the Tri Tip, and vacuum seal in some bags. Cook Sous Vide at 135 degrees for 4-6 hours. When finished remove from bag and dry off the surface of the meat with paper towels. Sear with your torch for 30-45 seconds per side, or until a nice crust is formed. Slice and enjoy! Watch the video below to see the whole process, step by step.

Are you looking for an inexpensive alternative for searing meat after Sous Vide cooking that won't cost you hundreds of dollars? Something powerful enough to sear quickly and efficiently yet is very inexpensive? Then you need to check out my review of the Greenwood Propane Torch. The basic model cost just $19.99, while the more expensive one that I reviewed comes with an automatic igniter and cost just $29.99. Will either of these Propane torches get the job done? Will it work as well as a Searzall or a Grillblazer Gun? Can you get similar results from a Propane Torch that costs so little compared to the more well known brands? Watch my video below to see the results you can get with an inexpensive Propane Torch.

I decided to try something really different this time. Cooking a Meatloaf from start to finish with Sous Vide, and finishing it off in the oven. If you don't have a smoker or BBQ this is a better alternative than risking overcooking it and drying it completely out in oven. Ingredients: 2 Pounds Ground Beef 1 Pound Ground Pork Sausage 1 Cup of Bread Crumbs ( I used Ritz crackers) 4-5 Cloves of Garlic, Diced 1 Onion, Diced 5-6 Green Onions, Diced 2 Eggs, Slightly Beaten 1 1/2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce 1 Shot of Whiskey 1 1/2 Tablespoons Steak Rub of your choice 1/4 Cup of Half & Half BBQ Sauce of your choice Blend Meatloaf Ingredients in large Bowl, being careful not to Over mix, Gently Blend. Layer a Loaf Pan with Plastic Wrap, and fill with Meatloaf Mixture. Place in freezer until meatloaf has hardened so it will be easier to seal in bags. Sous Vide at 142 degrees Fahrenheit for 3-4 hours. Carefully remove from bag and place on Cookie Sheet. Baste with BBQ Sauce of your choice. Broil in your over at 450-500 degrees for 3-5 minutes to allow the sauce to glaze. Carefully slice and enjoy! Watch my video below where I show you how to make this, step by step.

Here is a super easy way to make BBQ Pork Ribs without a BBQ or Smoker, and using only 5 ingredients. Ingredients: Baby Back Pork Ribs (I had 3 Slabs) 2 Cups of your favorite BBQ Sauce 2 12 ounce Beers of your choice Salt Black Pepper First remove the membrane on the back side of the Ribs. Cut Ribs into 3-5 Rib sections to ensure you will be able to fit them in your Slow Cooker. Salt and Pepper the Ribs on both sides and allow the Ribs to sit out at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. Pour one Beer into Slow Cooker. Place Rib sections inside. Pour second Beer over the top of the Ribs. Cook on Low for 5 hours or on High for 3 hours. Half way through cooking remove Ribs and place the Ribs that were on top on the bottom and on the Bottom on Top. Continue to cook. Once the Ribs appear tender remove them and drain the Beer. Coat both sides of the Ribs with BBQ Sauce and place back inside Slow Cooker. Pour some more BBQ Sauce on top of Ribs. Cook on High for another hour, or until they are tender. Remove Ribs very carefully from Slow Cooker. They will be very tender and will fall apart very easily if you are not careful. Place Racks on oven rack and Broil in your over on High (450-500 degrees) for a few minutes to allow the BBQ Sauce to caramelize. Watch my video below to see me make these, step by step. Very easy to make, even if you have no BBQ or Smoker.

In this video my wife Monica and I decide to step outside our comfort zone for the benefit of a charity we both feel passionate about. Both our children, Kyle and Ava Grace have a rare genetic disorder called KCNQ2. KCNQ2 typically presents with seizures in the first week of life. Seizures appear as stiffening of the body (tonic) often associated with jerking and changes in breathing or heart rate. The seizures are usually quite frequent (many per day) and often difficult to treat. Typically, the seizures are associated with abnormal brain wave patterns on EEG during this time. The seizures in KCNQ2E often resolve within months to years but children have some degree of developmental impairment involving one or more domains (motor, social, language, cognition). This can range from mild to severe depending on a number of different factors. Some children may also have autistic features. Monica and I want to thank Stephen Speakman for donating to this charity. We both knew it was important for us to help in any way we can, including taking part in eating some extremely hot Ramen noodles. Watch the video below to see both Monica and I eat a whole bowl of Extremely Hot Spicy Ramen. It is something I will never forget!

Doing a different kind of video for you this time. I will not be cooking any food for you today. Instead I am going to sample many different kinds of food made with Boysenberries, at Knott's Berry Farm with the family. Knott's Berry Farm started as a roadside stand selling Berries, Preserves and Pies in Buena Park California in the mid 1920s. By the 1940s, a restaurant, several shops, and other attractions had been constructed on the property to entertain a growing number of visitors, including a replica ghost town. The site continued its transformation into a modern amusement park over the next two decades. Every year for a limited time Knott's Berry Farm has a Boysenberry Festival. Chefs come up with different and unique recipes each year, the only requirement is that is has to have Boysenberry in it. This leads to some very creative food dishes that you have never tried before. Best part is how affordable it is. For $35 you get a card that entitles you to try 8 different samples of food. Pick eight different things, or 8 of one thing if you like, the choice is yours. This video features our family day at Knott's Berry Park in Buena Park, California. We stuffed ourselves with so much Delicious and Unique Food, and the kids loved the rides that the Park offers. Watch the video below to see our fun family day eating such great foods and enjoying ourselves.
