When it comes to rib, the equation of seared and caramelized and falling off the bones. These ribs definitely add up. We combine low and slow cooking (that’s the fall off the bone factor) with a quick sear on the grill (that’s the crisp and caramelized factor.) Now add in our Quick Fig BBQ Sauce....
Barbacoa means “barbecue” – it’s a dish, a flavor profile and a cooking style. In this version, we employ a slow cooker to render the beef very tender. The cooking liquid is a combo of tangy, savory, spicy and hot! It’s a beautiful combination of our Peach Balsamic, Barbacoa Blend, chiles, onions, garlic and citrus....
Hard to call this one a recipe…it’s more of a thing you do with Brussels Sprouts. These little cabbages love our Blood Orange Avocado Oil. And all Avocado Oil loves the high heat required for roasting. We season these with our Orange Pepper to amp up the citrus flavor. Let these go until they’re almost charred....
Shawarma is both a dish and a flavor profile. Shawarma from lamb, beef or chicken is a popular street food and is cut from a vertical rotisserie and piled into pita.

In our version of this South Louisiana staple, we use BBQ Shrimp Seasoning. It has everything you need for this perfectly-spiced pot of soup. Here’s the thing, while this blend might be called BBQ Shrimp, we use it for just about anything! Smashburgers. Frittata. Oh, and BBQ Shrimp! It’s a versatile, perfectly spiced, salt free...
A handful of pantry items- no boil lasagna noodles, our favorite jarred sauce, Soprano’s Deliza– all come together to make this lasagna completely approachable on a weeknight. The shape of the cast iron skillet makes for more end pieces- for those that love those crispy edges (like us).
If you want authentic paella, you’ll need to carve out a day and start a wood fire. We certainly have nothing against this method–it’s an experience like none other. But you can get fairly close to the original with this version from cooking expert Mark Bittman. While Catalans would not refer to this version as...
