Chili Night!I know it's cliche. I know every man believes his chili is the best. But, if you care to take a dare, I think you will agree that mine is the best. You don't have to admit it to me or your significant other. Consider this a gift from me to you. Now you can quit obsessing over your chili and concentrate on the grill.Here you go:1 pound ground beef1 medium onion, chopped3 cloves

While traveling, I take it upon myself to try things that are not available in our fair Farmington. Sometimes it is a challenge. For instance, any trip on one of our fine interstates. Interstate exits have fast become the territory of the top twenty fast food restaurants, 16 of which call our area home . But rules are rules and if I make them, how can I break them?You can officially consider

Sometimes the best laid plans do not work out. After recruiting several family members to accompany me to Colton's Steak House for the express purpose of a hugely entertaining blog post, we were given a great big fake Texas welcome and informed of a 1 1/2 hour wait. Wow, this place must really be good! After soundly rejecting the thought of waiting an hour and a half for food prepared by

There are many ways to waste time, and watching tv has long been a popular choice. There seems to be a new channel every day, and more and more of it is "reality" based. Fortunately for food fans, there now seems to be more food programming on than there are home hunting/cleaning/fixing. Every night is filled to the brim with cooking.Here is one that I ran across and enjoyed last night:

You may have noticed a colorful glow coming from Farmington's Maple Valley area lately. Alison and I did just that the other night while on the way to grandmother's house. But, fear not, upon further inspection it turns out that the new Colton's Steakhouse is now open! No directions needed, just follow the neon glow! "Wow," proclaimed my beautiful wife Alison. "Yeah, think they are from

A few years ago a very thoughtful person gifted Alison and I a curious thing called a "crock pot" as a celebration of our marriage. Evidently, these pots are very popular with families on the go. The idea is that you can put all manner of meat, vegetables and spices into the thing, turn it on and 2 - 8 hours later have a delicious home cooked meal.A few nights ago I was leafing through a

Warehouse Bar-B-Q and Catfish Company - October 09Made famous in town for their "Terrible Tater" while located in the old Tom's warehouse, which has since burnt down, on what used to be Hwy W (Farmington is an ever changing place, huh?) the Warehouse is now located in the Maple Valley area. Their restaurant has a great family atmosphere complete with a cracker barrel style gift shop. But, there

Hunt's Dairy Bar - Farmington - September 09After teasing us with closing this Parkland institution last fall, lucky for us, another Hunt family member stepped up and reopened Hunts Dairy Bar in Farmington this spring. Life was a little empty for me those few months, realizing the possibility that I might never have a western cheeseburger again. Sure, there was the Flat River location still open,
