Better Than Popeyes: Spicy Chicken Sandwich (At Home)
When I finally got my hands on that Popeyes Spicy Chicken Sandwich I immediately understood the hype! From the seasoned buttermilk marinade to that one of a kind Popeyes flaky crunchy crust. The crisp brightness from the dill pickles and of course the tangy spicy mayo to round out the flavor. If you want to make Popeyes at home…this is it! #LetsVibe
My Grandma Nanny’s Fresh Fried Corn
If you’ve been mixing together canned cream style plus whole kernel corn & calling it Fried Corn…that ain’t it! After cornbread dressing Fried Corn is my favorite recipe from my grandma Nanny. Not battered & deep fried but fresh cut kernels off the cob sautéed in butter in a hot cast iron skillet. #LetsVibe
Wet, Sweet, Hot, Dipped: Classic Chicago Italian Beef Sandwich
Italian beef wet, sweet and hot peppers, dipped. An Italian beef sandwich the Chicago way is a ritual and rite of passage. You can’t go wrong gabbing one from classic spots like Johnnie’s or Mr. Beef. But after you try my recipe at home your new favorite Chicago Beef just might be right your kitchen! #LetsVibe
Baked Spaghetti: The Ultimate BBQ Side Dish
Sugar don’t go in grits…but it definitely belongs in spaghetti. And it needs to be baked. With cheese. On top. Period. Call it a Midwest thing. Call it a Chicago thing. Call it Black Spaghetti (yes, with a capital B). Whatever you call it, just know—you’ve been missing out if this dish hasn’t been part of your BBQ menu. #LetsVibe
Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs (Easy to Peel, Bright Yellow Yolks)
Whether it’s for a high protein snack, potato salad & for especially deviled eggs, this is the only way to hard boil the perfect egg every time. #LetsVibe
The Creamy Coleslaw That’ll Change Your Mind
What do you mean you don’t like coleslaw?? Nah…you just haven’t had it made right before. Coleslaw is supposed to be cool, crispy, tangy, and slightly sweet—not soggy, bland, or drowning in mayo. Once you’ve had it made my way? You’ll never skip it at the cookout again. #LetsVibe
