Day 25 of the 25 Days of Christmas BBQ Blogging

I spend a bit of time on the net each day. More and more frequently I find that I consult my cookbooks less and the net more when searching for a recipe or procedure. I really like many of the videos whether professionally done or in a persons kitchen.

I was asked by Eric Devlin a while ago to contribute my top Christmas gift giving picks for this publication. I picked the things I like, some of which I already have and a few I would still like to have.

Well I am glad it is finally live here is the link to the new Smoke Signals Magazine.

Additionally here is the link to the Fan Page on Facebook

I am looking forward to future issues!!!

Day 14 -25 Days of Christmas Blogging.

You know sometimes you see pictures that can certainly take you to a moment or spurn you into action. Then there are others by people that just make me hungry. Food porn is a HUGE thing now. The wording seems rather crude to describe the elegance that I see in Curt McAdams pictures from his Live Fire Online site.

He is an exceptionally talented photographer and also a speaker on all things BBQ. He also has incredible recipes.

Recently I did a round table discussion with him on Hucks Hut. In the offtimes not being recorded he gave me a recipe for ABTS that I can’t wait to share. I am hoping to get down to Ohio to compete at one of the events he will be at this year.

Recently I found out about Curt’s new venture- The Outdoor Cooking Guild. From his website here is the description:

What is the Outdoor Cooking Guild? It’s pretty simple; it’s a group of bloggers that concentrate on outdoor cooking in many forms, whether grilling, barbecuing, Cuban pig roasts, outdoor bread ovens or dutch oven campfire cooking.

There are groups and web rings for more particular topics, but this is a unique group of bloggers that know how to tame fire and cook outside better than inside. From high tech gadgets to low tech campfires, this is about getting out of the house and feeding people.

Its a terrific Guild that has some really talented people such as Larry Gain from the BBQ Grail, Angie Quaale from Wellseasoned, and many others who are just an asset to outdoor cooking.

To celebrate the talent and creativity of fellow food lovers, I am going to weekly select a “Friday Food Fave” to showcase here on Livefire.

How does it work? It’s simple. Follow me on Twitter, and, on Fridays before 2:30 pm Eastern time, send me a link (@cmcadams) to your current favorite food photo. Make sure it’s your own, or have the owner send it to me, and use the tag “#fridayfoodfaves”.

After 2:30, I will select my favorite for the day and let the winner, and everyone else, know. If the winner is ok with it, I will post the photo here, either by link or directly (it’s their choice), and credit them with the photo. If they don’t want the photo posted, that’s cool, too. They will also receive a Friday Food Faves badge to display on their blog if they wish.
