Recipes- #6 Smoked Carrot-Almond-Ricotta Cake

#carrotcake

This recipe was completed on the gas grill using wood chunks for great smoky flavor to shredded fresh carrots. By using a griddle insert on my grill, I prevent overcooking and dehydration to the carrot, since this is a main component to our cake.

Best Recipes- #2 Ember-Fired Fresh Zucchini

#smokedzucchini

One of the things we try to do in our recipe offerings is to give a variety of options on technique. Our fresh zucchini recipe was one such offering as we took this vegetable to the hot embers to tenderize and char. This is one great way to use the entire wood fire before it reduces to cold ash.

Best Recipes- #1 Wood-Fired Guacamole

#guacamole

The top recipe of 2018 was our wood-fired guacamole! Given the popularity of avocado as well as dips in general for easy entertaining, this is one special guacamole. The wood fired flavor works so well whether you serve this with chips or use it as a condiment to top a burger or chicken sandwich. With versatility to add special flavor to any meal, it’s no wonder wood-fired guacamole is our number one recipe for 2018!
