Homemade Sushi, 3-Ways

What the hell have I gotten myself into?

A few weeks ago, my wife and I were grocery shopping.  While walking down the International Foods isle, I found a package of seaweed wraps, and thought, "How cool would it be if we made our own sushi?"

Making BBQ Ribs

If our readers are anything like me, you are probably fans of both eating out for dinner and creating new tasty treats from home.  I decided recently to take on something I hadn't made on the grill myself, but have had numerous times--BBQ Ribs.  This was a true test of manliness at it's best, so I decided to take on the challenge.  I was assured by a few friends that had made ribs before that, "Oh, dude, it's so easy.  The trick is indirect low heat for a long time."  Little did I know that I was getting myself into nearly an all-day prep and cook session.  Here's how it all went down.

James and the Reuben Challenge

James, my soon to be partner @Mealightenment, went on a food adventure this week while actually just taking a little time off of work. His biggest accomplishment was getting his pal Greg (or Gregosaurus Rex if you like, dude's a beast) into the same room as the Reuben Challenge at Izzy's in 1 of their 2 Kentucky locations. This particular challenge is celebrating their 110 Year Anniversary.  The challenge is an extreme challenge requiring the entire sandwich to be eaten in 30 minutes, and has only been finished by a handful of customers, including famous food-challenge man Adam Richman.
