Buffalo chicken pizza.
Get the dough mixed.
Dice an onion, mince some garlic.
Fry in lotsa butter til it smells super good.
Dice a chicken breast and brown with the onions and garlic. Add more butter if you like.
Mix in Frank's to taste. I really like to taste the Frank's.
Roll out the dough on cornmeal. Place on olive oiled aluminum foil.
Brush with olive oil. Sprinkle a little mozz. Spread the chicken mixture over the pizza. Heavier coat of mozz. Grind a little pepper over the top and add some chives.
In the oven on the bottom rack for 10 minutes.
Comes out just like the picture. My poor guts. Barely made it out with leftovers for tomorrow. Might kill 'em later this evening.
Ben you are on the hook to show the rabble how a smelt fry works....I remember some good times in MN. Table full of smelt and a case of Fox Deluxe ouch.

This is one of the things seriously right with Florida. I can walk out the back door this time of year and get enough Key Limes for a pie.
Between work and vacation, it feels like I haven't been home for several weeks. I just wanted to get home tonight from the road and eat some decent food. Surprise, Mrs. RW read my mind and I could smell the charcoal when I pulled in the driveway. Grilled flank steak marinated in oil, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper...asparagus and red skins grilled on the skillet. Downed with a glass (or two) of Le'Ecole No. 41 cab.
The neighbors gave me a pork loin roast for my birthday a while back. It had to go into the freezer during vacay. I had some trepidation as this is a tricky cut to do and not dry out. A day in the brine. Simple dry rub. A little sear and then low heat for a while. It got a dose of sauce about 90 min from finish. Temp spike is from when I lifted the lid and reset the thermo probe. Super tasty. Served with a beer bread and some garlic sauteed sweet potato greens that grow weedy in the yard.
Tonight on the Weber...grilled Cod, homemade salsa and sauce, grilled tortillas with local corn. Topped off with a Zeus No.5 IPA from Sam Adams...yum.
It's Mrs. RW's birthday today and when asked where she wanted to go for dinner, she replied "pick up some filets, I'll stop by the farmer's market for some veggies and surprise me with some tiramisu." Roger that as it was a beautiful night to grille and dine out on the patio with the birthday girl.
Grilled filet mignon, redskin potatoes, broccoli, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes enjoyed on the patio with a little merlot and San Pellegrino. The flame in the one pic is a piece of whiskey soaked apple wood that I picked up at a distillery in Virginia...good stuff but rather pungent.
GREAT birthday dinner. Perfect.

From last week's feast. Wild sockeye salmon brushed with a little olive oil. Then covered in layers of microplaned frozen ginger root, salt, pepper, minced onion and brown sugar. Cooked on indirect heat under a 300ish grill on planks to an internal temp of 135. Easy and tasty. Almost like candy with the ginger and sugar going on. We started with two big fillets. There was a frenzy.
I might be brave and try some grilled fish pizza some day. In the meantime, white pizza with some farm fresh tomatoes and a little Stella on the side. "I cheat with Mesquite" to get the temps hot enough, and I place one side on the grille (brushed with oil) before the toppings are added. Thanks Marthaletta Stewartini.
Thumbs up for the pizza method. I'm a believer.
