Chef Tom breaks down an incredibly simple recipe for guacamole that takes the jalapeños out to the grill for some color and flavor before mixing everything up in a zip top bag.
I mean, the title of the recipe tells you everything you need to know to want to COOK THIS NOW! And the fact that the marinade also has a jalapeño kick is a bonus! This one is super easy and only requires a handful of ingredients, and I promise it’ll make for some killer fajitas!

Sous vide has taken a jump in popularity lately with the introduction of more and more affordable sous vide units on the market. This has brought the cost of home sous vide down and has introduced the technique to those who had never heard of it mere months ago. Chef Tom takes an amazing Creekstone Farms Master Chef Choice Cowboy Ribeye and sous vides it in the VacMaster SV1 at 49ºC and cooks it for an hour and a half. After that he quickly sears it off for flavor on our Yoder Smokers YS640 Pellet Cooker setup for direct grilling.
Chef Tom walks us through the process of direct grilling a Creekstone Farms Master Chef Choice Cowboy Ribeye Steak on our Large Big Green Egg; similar to the Kamado Joe Big Joe or Kamado Joe Classic.
When our friends at Cattleman’s Grill asked us to come up with a killer steak sandwich recipe it was a no brainer. We use the Cattleman’s Grill rubs more than any other when it comes to grilling steaks around here. This recipe is built around the earthy flavors of their Smoky Chipotle Coffee Steak Rub. The coffee flavor works great with the smoky spice of the chipotle, which we’ve amped up with the steak marinade and the aioli on the sandwich.
This grilled apple slaw is the perfect side for Autumn grilling. Incorporating flavors of the fall, this summer recipe can thrive months after the summer!
Though the sous-vide technique was first developed over 40 years ago, it has only recently made its mainstream debut. Chefs in quality restaurants have long used this technique, and now sous-vide machines are becoming much more available to the general public. The idea is simple, really. Food is vacuum sealed in a bag and submerged in circulating water in which the temperature is precisely controlled.
Beets have made a recent comeback and people are finding them sweet and flavorful. This recipe will allow you to try them for yourself in a great summer salad.
Chef Tom's Santa Maria Tri-tip Tacos recipe is a favorite with the ATBBQ crew. Smoked Salsa and Pickled Red Onions topped with Avacado Crema top off this great taco.
