    • Light, creamy, fluffy, and fully loaded twice-baked potatoes are a scrumptious treat. They are ideal for a lite meal or a side dish packed with flavor.

You are going to be tempted to use this mixture for your next mashed potato recipe.

And if you have a Foodi Ninja, you can make mashed potatoes in no time with its pressure cooker setting. The buttery and cheese flavors are complemented with celery seeds for freshness. The ramekins make this recipe ideal for a tasteful appetizer or in a bigger ramekin for a lite meal. You get to choose, if you need more just double the recipe.

    • These Sausage Meatballs are done with mild Tennessee sausage, garlic, mild Cheddar cheese, and our secret ingredient, Bisquick. They are a crowd-pleaser hot or cold. Cooking the sausage meatballs in the air fryer is a time saver. They are done in just under 10 min. The Bisquick combines all the flavors and lets the sweetness from the sausage come through in every bite. The dough's texture makes them ideal for finger food for game day or a side dish at your next get-together.

    • I used the shank ham because of the sweet flavor and less fat. Our glave is made with ingredients right in the cupboard or easily purchased at the store. You just whip it up while the double smoked ham is cooking. Now the smoking wood I used was hickory for its traditional intense smoke that adds sweetness and a hint of bacon.

    • Flank Steak grilled on the Blackstone is a great way for a fun and savory meal done all outdoors. Our marinade is easy to make and brings out the natural flavor of the steak. The whole recipe, including the sides, is done on the griddle. Best of all, each of the steps flows into the next. The only time you need to watch the clock is for grilling the flank steak.

    • Grilled T-bones and top sirloin steaks are a favorite here. When they're thick, I reverse sear them on the BBQ. Reverse searing on the BBQ is easily done, it starts with a low and slow, a rest, and then a high-heat sear to grill the steaks to perfection.

    • Seared perfectly, these Grilled Boneless Chicken Thighs are tender and flavorful. Our chicken marinade brings the right balance of sweet and savory in every bite. The marinade is easy to make and best of all you can have the thighs marinate overnight to just a few hours before grilling. I bet you have the brown sugar and soy sauce in the house right now. Let's get grilling.

    • Yes, you can griddle your own crispy and warm tortillas to make Taco Shells on the Blackstone. You are going to love how easy this is. You can pick whatever tortillas you want from gluten-free to spinach. Our favorites are corn and flour. The flour tortillas have the advantage of various sizes. So you can make some "Big" tacos or tasty street tacos. The corn can be shaped into shells or heck do fajitas. Don't forget, you choose if the tortilla shells are crispy or soft.
