Tonight's dinner!

Tonight we had one of my favorite meals, Cresent roll stuffed with chicken breast, peppers, onions and cheese, seasoned with The Rub. I topped it with lettuce, Sour cream, avacado, and roasted corn and tomato salsa. And of course a squeeze of Lime. Love me some Lime!

"The Rub" Product Review!!

Woohoo!! I just got an email from the Q review.com letting me know that they just reviewed "The Rub" , which is my signature seasoning. It was awesome!! I got 4.5 out of 5 stars. Here's what they had to say.

Alisha Wilbert has worked in the restaurant business and spent time judging and competing at BBQ competitions. Over the years, she's accumulated a wealth of knowledge and an appreciation for great BBQ. She has used that passion and experience to create her own signature line of BBQ sauces and seasonings.

This week, I got the opportunity to use Alisha's BBQ rub, appropriately named "The Rub." The Rub is a unique blend of 20 herbs and spices. Alisha uses a sugar / paprika base that is balanced with salt, garlic and a complex variety of herbs. While many of the ingredients are BBQ rub standards, Alisha also includes exotic flavors like curry and tumeric.

I used The Rub on a rack of babyback ribs. The rub turned out to be an excellent choice for the ribs. There is ALOT going on in Alisha's rub. There are so many contrasting flavors. It's remarkable how well she was able to blend all the ingredients. The rub manages to be both sweet, savory and even slightly spicy.

Alisha's Kitchen The Rub is one of the best BBQ rubs that I've reviewed recently. In addition to being incredibly flavorful, it's also very aromatic. I loved it on the ribs, but I could see it being equally good on beef and chicken.

Tonight's dinner!

Tonight we had Lip Lick'n Lemon Pepper Grilled Pork Chops. For the sides I took some french cut green beans (drained) and added chopped onion and sauteed them in a little olive oil. I then cut some sweet potato, carrots, zuchini, and green onions, tossed them with a little evoo, salt and pepper and roasted them in the oven. All I can say is Yum!

Dinner at the Depot

Dinner at the Depot is now over until next year. We had a great turn out for the end of the season. I have really enjoyed setting up there. I cant wait until warmer weather comes! That place is gonna be so amazing! Until then Alisha's Kitchen will be setting up in various places. We are ok with a little cold. hehe, I will keep you posted!

The Q review

I sent in my products to be reviewed by Q review.com. I got the review back today. I thought it was pretty cool. I got 3.5 out of 5 stars. I have copied the write up for you to check out.

Alisha Wilbert of Alisha's Kitchen has been around BBQ since she was nine years old. Her family owned a small BBQ take-out business while she was a child. Over the years, she cultivated her love and knowledge of BBQ eventually leading to Georgia's competition circuit. She naturally progressed to produce her own line of sauces and seasonings.

Alisha provided samples of several of her products for The "Q" Review. The first product I had a chance to use was her Honey BBQ Sauce. I was looking for a sweet sauce to offset the salty, spicy that I'd used on a smoked pork butt.

I cracked the seal on a 12 oz. glass bottle and poured a bit into a sample cup. The rich tomato sauce was medium / thick and poured smoothly. The aroma was mild and familiar. The sweetness was easy to detect. I also picked up the smell of liquid hickory smoke.

Though Alisha resides in Georgia, her sauce follows the Kansas City tradition of sweet, smokey tomato sauces. Her Honey BBQ Sauce is sweet, but not overwhelmingly so. The smokiness and mild spices all blend well to create the type of sauce that everyone can enjoy. It's flavors are sophisticated enough for Mom and Dad, but mild enough to be kid friendly.

The sauce's texture and flavor makes it versatile enough for most BBQ applications. I poured it over pulled pork. Alisha recommends her sauce for brushing on ribs and chicken. The sauce could be enjoyable as a dip, but I would recommend taking Alisha's advice and brushing it on a slow smoked rack of ribs. Pair this Honey BBQ Sauce with Alisha's rub for a winning combination.
