    Homemade Potato Chips with House Seasoning

    The humble potato is hands down probably the most favorite vegetable of every person I know. They are so versatile.  There isn’t much you can’t do with a potato. You can make it into flour, into a pancake, you can mash, fry, slice, dice, grill, roast, puree and make them into soup. You can even make pasta with them. A potato is a pretty amazing little veggie! The Stud Muffin love potatoes. He’s the stereotypical meat and potatoes kind of guy. You’ll never catch him complaining if I don’t feel like making a green veggie to go with our meal as long as their is meat and some type of potato.  Potato chips…

    St. Louis Style BBQ Ribs on the Grill

    It’s a fingers only meat buffet at Real Food Girl: Unmodified today!  We’re grilling Ribs! As far as I’m concerned, ribs could easily be categorized as one of the really good things about life. Whether they’re baby back, St. Louis, Country Style or beef ribs, they are just darn tasty.  I love that you don’t need silverware and it’s acceptable to get stupid-messy while eating them. I just plain love good BBQ ribs. Don’t you? We’re either not exploring enough or we’re looking in the wrong places here in SC, because we’ve yet to find one BBQ joint that we want to “write home” about.  We were told about this one place that we…

    Real Food Girl BBQ Spice Rub

    I’ve got some sad news my friends. It’s so sad I actually cried.  It could possibly be hormones, but we’ll just play along and say it is because of sadness. After years of tinkering I finally created what The Stud Muffin and I felt was my best BBQ Spice Rub. That stuff was Da Bomb!  I slapped that rub on chicken, ribs, pork chops, and that meat was happy! Heck, WE were happy. Happiness all around. Happy meat, happy wife, happy life. And life was BBQ’y and good and happy.  Then, one day, I decided it was time to organize my desk and purge papers and things I’d had for years that were…
