Iced Thai Tea

I love Thai Tea.  The warm and spicy vanilla-y aromas, creaminess, and delicious taste make Thai Tea very distinct and super refreshing.  Thai Tea will also definitely cool down your burning mouth when indulging in super spicy Thai food.

Smoked Cheeseburgers

Nothing screams Red, White, and Blue like a big fat juicy all American cheeseburger at a summer cookout to celebrate Independence Day while chillin' and grillin' with family and friends.  It's also great not having to work and getting a day off in the middle of summer to relax and keep your mind off the...

Smoked Dino Beef Ribs

I recently finished reading the book Jurassic Park for the first time.  I didn't realize how scary and the book was going to be!
