My Nana's chocolate chip cookies. She ever so slightly modified the Toll House cookie recipe from the package of Nestle's chocolate chips. To this day, after 40 years of trying, I still can't get 'em the way she did.
I'm not nearly as fond of Oreos as I am of Hydrox cookies. Hydrox cookies were grocery store Oreos before there actually were Oreos. They're not as tooth-achingly sweet nor as bland as Oreos.
Hydrox aren't widely sold anymore -- I used to find them in the grocery store next to Oreos. Hubby will order them special for me every so often. Maybe that's good for my waistline. No ... I'm sure it's good.
They weren't made for awhile, then someone started making them again. It seems to me they taste the same now as they used to, so I'm a happy campter. Hubs gets them on Amazon (where else?)
I of course love smoked meats of all kinds, but also like quick cooks like chicken portions, pork tenderloins, steak and fish. Really into cooking of all kinds.
My outdoor kitchen has a Lone Star Grillz Adjustable and it is wonderful. There also is a Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle and a Pit Boss Copperhead pellet grill.
There is an outdoor fire pit that has grilling capability and limited Santa Maria-style grill raising and lowering.
But also it seems the first few times we were stocking up for storms in Florida, Publix had Keebler pecan shortbreads on BOGO so these are now also comfort food for stressful times.
About Me
My name is Josh, not Joey (surprise), and I reside in Central Ohio. I have been grilling since I could drive, and smoking for around 15 years. Over the past couple of years I have gotten more into just cooking, and really enjoy sous vide and the flat top. I find myself experimenting with different foods and new ways of cooking as an outlet to work stress. I use every piece of equipment I own regularly, with the exception of the electric smoker. That only gets brought out on occasion to make jerky.
My favorite beverage is bourbon. I typically have at least 8-10 bottles open at any given time. While I have favorites, I enjoy sampling new and different varieties.
Presidents Choice brand Decadent Chocolate Chunk cookies
Heroin....made with real butter and milk chocolate chunks.
My wife won't let me buy them anymore as its out and out gluttony when I tie into these things.
Had a box of those once while at a professional meeting in Montreal. OMGoodness, they were delicious. Can't find them where we live in the States. Available on Amazon, but reviews say the boxes arrive with nothing but crumbled cookies in them. I'd still eat them that way, though.
