First, here's the animal that was killed for our dinner last night. It was back in September when my brother took that mule deer and there's still meat in family freezers. In fact, I'm using two pounds of the ground tonight for spaghetti. Here's how it went down. I first took the rou...

This is not Paleo, but it's not crap, either. About 3-4 times per year I can't help but prepare my favorite dish: Masaman beef curry, which you can get in most Thai restaurants, but none as good as mine. I've been eating and making this for myself for 20 years. When I go to a Thai restau...

Here's an old favorite that I cooked up last night. It's a "mom" recipe (except for my own stylings) and I've been doing it for years. This is very high on the comfort food scale. It has only four primary ingredients: two long polish sausage (polska kielbasa, preferably gluten,...

A number of people have asked me for the supplements I take, so I'm working on that now. May not be ready for posting until tomorrow, however, as I'll be getting in the car soon for a drive up to the mountains. In the meantime, dinner last night was Atlantic Cod poached in a coconut milk gre...

So people, if sandwich is one of your favorite food gro...

More of my "Dude Ranch" photos >> Yesterday we drove to Lockhart, the BBQ Capital of Texas, to taste-test some meat sundaes. They weren't real meat sundaes the way they're done in Montana, with a pile of "moist" brisket as the base, piled with baked beans, a layer of sausage rings, then a scoo...
