I've been throwing down on some new recipes lately, especially on the grill. What are some of your favorite things to cook? So you have a favorite thing to make on game day? What about sweets? Any bakers out there?
I'll start with this one. I haven't actually made it yet, however they look amazing. I'm thinking about adding some bacon bits and jalapenos.
