Does your family love bold flavors? When they hear the word Jalapeño do they say, “BRING IT ON”? If your family is tired of flavorless sausage, Jacks Link’s can  satisfy their WILD SIDE. It is time for meat lovers to rejoice because Jack Link’s Wild Side Sausages are available at Walmart and come in great flavors like Original, Jalapeño, Cheddar and Bacon Jerky.

Recently I was shopping in Walmart when I saw the Jack Link’s Wild Side Sausages in the Packaged Deli section. I picked up several packages. I knew my family would love them because they are crazy about bold, flavor-filled taste. I chose the Jalapeño, Cheddar and Bacon Jerky varieties. I really liked that they are high in protein, had no fillers or added MSG, no artificial flavors or colors and are made with premium cuts of beef & pork. I was happy to see they were also on rollback pricing and only $3.48 a package from now until Memorial Day! These sausages and brats are great by themselves or in a recipe!

My family loves variety so I decided that we would make a great dinner of grilled Jack Link’s Wild Side sausage, peppers and onions sliders and grilled sausage and sausage, pepper and onion pizzas. I would serve them with a nice spring salad and fresh lemonade.

The sausage cook up fast on the grill since they are fully cooked. To make the Sausage Pepper and Onion Sliders we first cut up 2 large onions.

Next  we cut up red, orange and yellow peppers. You can use any type of peppers you want.

We have a grill pan that is made for cooking vegetables on the grill, so  we used that to cook the onions and peppers. We put them in the pan,  added some olive oil and tossed them. Then we put the pan on the grill and kept a close eye, turning them every couple of minutes until they were done.

We also had the sausage on the grill at the same time. The sausages were done first and inside we had coated different size pre-made pizza shells with olive oil.

Then we added pizza sauce which we also bought pre-made.

We added mozzarella cheese and then topped them with sliced  Jack Link’s sausage hot off the grill. We kept the kids small pizzas with just the sausage and added peppers and onions to the large pizza.

Cooking pizza on the grill is fast and so you need to be watchful. My husband manned the grill while I made the salad. I also made the sausage, peppers and onions sliders.

I cut large hero rolls in half and then stuffed them with sausage pepper and onions. We used all 3 kinds of sausage so that everyone can choose what they want.

When you cut the sausage in slices or in half you can see whether it is cheddar or Jalapeño or Bacon Jerky so that is a plus.

When the pizzas were ready it was time to dig in. We also made some homemade ice cold lemonade.

Needless to say my family love this bold flavorful dinner, tons of variety and big on taste! It was something we will be doing again very soon. Has your family tried Jack Link’s Wild Side Sausage? I would love to know if you have and hear about your favorite recipe. Please let me know in the comments.

Chef Apron, Father’s Day Giveaway!!!

Memorial Day is fast approaching and will fall this year on, Monday, May 26th. Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday celebrated on the last Monday of May in remembrance of the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.  It’s  also the unofficial start of  summer!

Many people break out the barbecue for the first big cookout of the season and more often than not, it will be a male member of the family that’s manning the grill!

What is it with guys, fire and raw meat?

The perfect gift for the guy that grills or any cook or chef is an apron and for that reason, Crooked Brook is sponsoring a Chef Apron Giveaway. These professional chef aprons will also make a great Father’s Day gift for dads who like to cook.

Since 1989 Crooked Brook has designed and manufactured chef wear for the world’s most recognized men and women in the noble art and science of gastronomy. All Crooked Brook branded garments and accessories are made to order in the U.S.A and can personalized with the customer’s choice of fabric, pockets, buttons, piping and embroidery.

The giveaway consists of:

  • Two, Apron Style #700 – 35” W x 25” L (approximately), made in white, 10 oz., 100% cotton denim. Depending on the height of the wearer, this apron is calf length.  Total Prize Value with SHI…$45.00

Aprons were originally worn as a utilitarian outer garment to cover the front of the body to protect the wearer’s clothes from soiling, wear and tear. Over the years many different styles of aprons evolved depending on the purpose and were often named after the trade, craft or profession that used that particular design.

 

A chef apron is waist apron which is a square or rectangular piece of fabric that ties around the waist to cover the body from the waist down. For a cleaner look, some chefs fold the top of the apron over the ties (see image). With a pocket (sometimes divided to create a pen pocket) to hold an order pad (dupe pad) it becomes a bistro apron.

 

These mid-calf length “old school” heavy duty chef aprons are hard to find and coveted by professional chefs and serious cooks alike.

Crooked Brook also makes a 35” W x 25” L apron that is perfect for grill masters who like to wear shorts and cook over an open or pit fire because the length protects bare legs from the heat.

Another good thing about these aprons is that after they are too dingy and beat up to wear in public, you can cut them up into 100% cotton rags.
