BBQ Bacon Wrapped Chicken Nuggets Recipe - Quick Appetizer on the Weber Go Anywhere

A quick and easy appetizer, these bacon wrapped chicken chunks lasted about 5 minutes after they came off the grill.  With the amount of coals that I used there was plenty of charcoal left for the main course - BURGERS!

The Weber Go Anywhere grill is a little work-horse.  Even in the snow it smoked these little chicken nuggets at ease.  I bank lump charcoal on one side, threw some hickory chips on the top and lit about 20 briquettes to do a slow cook.  I was kind of a psuedo-snake method.

The rub recipe is just enough to do 2 chicken breasts, double it if you want to do a larger batch.

The Rub
1/2 t Freshly Cracked Black Pepper
1/2 t Kosher Salt
1/2 t Cumin
1/8 t White Pepper
1/2 t Ancho Chili Powder
1/4 t Granulated Garlic
1/4 t Granulated Onion
1 T Turbinado Sugar

2 Chicken Breasts
1/2 lb of Thin Cut Bacon
BBQ Sauce

Candied Jalapeno Apple BBQ Sauce

This sauce has everything... spiciness, sweetness, unique flavor and a nice tang!  I came up with this idea from watching a Smoky Ribs rib video.  The ribs looked so good I had to create an Candied Jalapeno BBQ sauce.  Here is my attempt.  It turned out really good and is excellent on pulled pork. 

As for the type of apples I used I am not really sure.  I know it was 3 different types (Gala, Ida Red and Crispin I think), 3 firm and slightly tart apples would be ideal.  I hope you give this BBQ sauce a try!

 

 

 

In a pot over medium heat add the oil, peppers and onions along with a big pinch of salt - cook until translucent.

 

Add the apples and brown sugar and cook until the apples soften a bit.

Add the candied jalapenos along with the brining liquid and all the other ingredients and bring to a simmer.  Cook for an hour, adding water if it seems too think.  Remember it will be much thicker after its blended and cooled. 

Let cool a bit and taste for seasoning - then blend.  Place a towel over the top blender if the sauce is still hot.  Pour into sterilized containers and store in the fridge or can the sauce.  

1 T Canola Oil

1/2 C Diced Green Bell Pepper

1 Diced Cooking Onion

1 Jalapeno

3 Cored/Cubed Apples

1 C Brown Sugar

1 C Jalapenos filled to the line with the brining liquid

20 oz Apple Cider

2 C Ketchup

1 C Mustard

1/4 C Molasses

1/3 C Worcestershire

1 C Cider Vinegar

2 t Fresh Cracked Pepper

1 1/2 t Salt



Christmas Breakfast Sausage - How to make a easy homemade breakfast sausage for Christmas morning

Sage and clementine zest really make this sausage!  Super easy recipe to make the best sausage patties in your life!  I hope you give these a try. 

 

Freshly ground sausage patties with no artificial ingredients like some of those store bought ones.  Homemade sausage patties are perfect for anytime!

This recipe is for about 3 lbs of pork shoulder.

Mix all the spices and herbs together.  Cube up the pork shoulder and mix in the seasoning mixture.  Place the pork on a baking sheet and put in freezer for 20-30 minutes to firm up just a little. 

Feed the pork into a meat grinder, alternating fatty and not so fatty pieces.   I used the small setting on the grinder. 

I recommend frying a couple patties up right away to taste for seasoning.  They might taste a little under seasoned but - remember that the real test is after it sits in the fridge for 24 hours! 

The bonus recipe - A sausage sandwich cooked on the Kettle-Q.  Bread toasted on one side with 2 fried eggs, 2 slices of 3 pepper jack cheese and 2 homemade sausage patties.

Chopped Fresh Herbs - Pineapple Sage and Thyme - regular sage will work just as well
Zest of 5 Clementines
3 T Fennel Seeds
2 t Salt
2 t Fresh Cracked Pepper
1/4 t Oregano
1/4 t Basil
1/4 t Parsley
1/8 - 1/4 t Crushed Red Pepper
pinch nutmeg

Char-grilled Garlic Parmesan Hot Chicken Wing recipe - How to grill the perfect wing on a mini wsm

These wings rocked!  Hot with a garlic finish.  I hope you give these wings a try!  Hot sauce video is not complete yet.  I will make sure it is the next video I post.  The Mini WSM is the perfect cooker for this method.  I was able to fit 2 dozen wings on one rack.

 

Fire up the Mini WSM and stabilize temp around 275.  Add a couple small chunks of hickory to the coals.  While temp is stabilizing mix the rub and apply lightly to the chicken wings. 

Cook wings for 20 minutes on in-direct heat and then flip.  Cook about 10 minutes and then shred Parmesan on top of wings.  Wait 5 minutes and shred more Parmesan.  Hit up both sides of the wings with 2 rainings or parm. 

While waiting for the wings to cook assemble the sauce.

Set up the Mini WSM for direct cooking and cook wings an additional 2 minutes per side.  Be careful though as they will burn quickly. 

Toss the wings in the sauce and serve with blue cheese dip, celery and carrot sticks.

The Rub
1 T Light Brown Sugar
1 T Paprika
1 t Ancho chili powder
1/2 t Black Pepper
1/2 t Onion Powder
1/2 t Garlic Powder
1/2 t dried herbs
1/4 t Cayenne

Parmesan Cheese (I used Peccorino Romano)

The Sauce
1 Crushed Clove of Garlic
1 T Browned Melted Butter
2/3 C Hot Sauce (preferably homemade)
1 T Fermented Hot Chili Sauce

Sliced Carrots
Sliced Celery
Blue Cheese dip

Here is a similar hot sauce to the one I used on the wings - http://whitethunderbbq.blogspot.com/2014/10/fermented-hot-sauce.html

Pulled Pork on the Mini WSM - Easy pork butt recipe on the Mini Weber Smokey Mountain

First long cook on the mini. Going to try lump next time as the Kingsford Blue produced a lot of ash and was stomping out the fire at the end. Cooked a 6lb butt in about 10 hours at a constant 225. Maintaining this temperature for 10 hours required very little maintenance.

- Fill Weber Smokey Joe completely with charcoal.  Add 3 chunks of smoke wood. - I like apple wood with pork.
