GuySpeed Editors — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 13:50:39 +0000

It’s just days away, and if you’re like us, you’re stumped about what to get your pops for Father’s Day. Ugly polo shirts wrinkle and fade, and no dad has ever actually cracked the spine on a book called 101 Great Grill Recipes. So what do all dudes love? Meat. We scoured the internet to [...]

Krispy Kreme Sloppy Joe Donut Debuts At San Diego Fair, Sends Hearts Into Delicious Panic

Joe Student — Sun, 09 Jun 2013 19:31:00 +0000

To paraphrase the late Robert F. Kennedy, some people would ask 'Why put sloppy joe meat into a deep-fried, glazed donut shell?' but Charlie Boghosian asks 'Why not?' Boghosian, known to many fans of fair food (and presumably their cardiologists) as "Chicken Charlie," debuted a Krispy Kre

The 'Lasagna Bun Burger' May Kill You, But At Least You'll Die Happy (And Full)

Drew Weisholtz — Sat, 01 Jun 2013 13:00:02 +0000

Our artery-clogging, scale-busting, caloric-consuming society now has a new culinary delight to rally ‘round. A Philadelphia restaurant called PYT has unveiled a dish called the ‘Lasagna-Bun Burger,’ which looks every bit as horrifically delicious as you think it is. Instead of a traditional bun or bread, the sandwich features two robust slices of deep-fried mozzarella [...]

Bacon Hot Dogs, MMMM… Thanks Oscar Mayer

Joy Larson — Sat, 18 May 2013 14:25:12 +0000

Anyone who is in their 30s grew up with a bologna that had a first and a last name. Yes, Oscar Mayer taught all of America’s youth that the only way to spell bologna was O-S-C-A-R and M-A-Y-E-R.

Best Animal Video Ever

Joy Larson — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 13:08:41 +0000

Have you ever noticed how different animals eat? It’s interesting if you think about it. For example, a cow simply plants its face in its food and chews away. How about an alligator? What do you think it’s like when an alligator opens its big jaws and just chomps away? That must make quite a mess. How about a lizard? It slithers along and then suddenly attacks its prey.

Spicy Buffalo Chicken Dip Recipe

Joy Larson — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 16:06:04 +0000

All the sports that have been on TV lately have put me in the chip and dip kind of food and my husband in a buffalo chicken wing kind of me. To tell you the truth, he is always in the buffalo chicken wing kind of mood. I swear he and my boys could eat them three times a week.

ikeffler — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 20:49:45 +0000

The fact is, there are many awesome burrito places tucked away in the Garden City. Which ones should you be spending your hard-earned money on? Well, that’s where I come in. Facebook [...]

Joy Larson — Fri, 22 Mar 2013 16:38:31 +0000

If your kids are like mine, then they love pizza. It doesn’t matter what kind either. For me, the easier it is to make, the better. When I found this recipe, I knew it would be great for an afterschool snack, a kid’s party or a quick dinner.

Guiness Cake with Irish Cream Frosting

Joy Larson — Fri, 15 Mar 2013 15:45:03 +0000

I recently found the perfect St. Patrick’s Day dessert while perusing Pinterest. I can’t wait to give it a try this year. It combines the best of both Worlds, chocolate and beer. If that’s not enough, the frosting to top this delicious cake is Irish cream flavored too. I’m pretty sure that dessert doesn’t get [...]

A Review of Taco Bell's Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Tacos

Chris Illuminati — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 18:32:37 +0000

Taco Bell has been an integral block of my food pyramid for almost two decades. Here is where things get a little odd though -- rarely do I stray from the regular. In the beginning the order was always the same -- three Soft Taco Supremes and three regular crunchy tacos -- with an occasional Grilled Stuft Burrito with beef. Boring but always delivered.

Drunk Sping Fruit – Drink Recipes

Joy Larson — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 15:21:10 +0000

Am I the only one who is ready for spring, warm weather and backyard barbecues? Ever since the groundhog poked his little head out and didn’t see his shadow, I’ve been eagerly awaiting sunny days. If you want to celebrate spring, with a little bit of alcohol, you should t

We Are in Search of the Best Wings in Missoula for the Super Bowl

KC — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 00:12:40 +0000

Here is a fun fact about the Super Bowl. Did you know that Super Bowl Sunday is the second to Thanksgiving on most food consumed? That is why I think that it should have its own food. Christmas has egg nog, Thanksgiving has turkey, and in my book, Super Bowl Sunday has chicken wings. So I pose the question, "Where are Missoula's Best Wings?"

I love sweets. I love them even more when there is absolutely no baking involved. The other day, I had a marshmallow craving, and wanted to make an easy dessert. After a quick Google search, I stumbled upon this recipe by Martha Stewart. Ingredients: Vegetable oil cooking spray, for pan 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin [...]

Crockpot Red Wings Recipe

Joy Larson — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 18:17:19 +0000

I have never been a big wing fan. They are too messy for me. However, my boys, including my husband, absolutely love them. So, because I love my family, I make wings every couple weeks. I must admit that this recipe will only feed about two people, so I usually have to double or triple it to feed all six of us. This is by far my boys’ favorite dinner. I usually like to serve these wings with steamed veggies and some form of potato, like mashed or baked.

It's Time to Panic — The Great Chicken Wing Shortage May Wreak Havoc with Your Super Bowl Plans

Drew Weisholtz — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 17:00:39 +0000

Okay, America. We have some news that will profoundly affect how you watch the Super Bowl. Brace yourself. No, scientists still haven’t figured out a way to teleport you there under the cloak of invisibility, so you still need a ticket. It turns out a shortage of chicken wings may be on the horizon What [...]

MLK Day Dinner – Chicken and Waffles [RECIPE]

KC — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 00:07:48 +0000

Every holiday has a food that goes along with it. Thanksgiving has turkey. Christmas has egg nog. Easter has ham. I think that Americans should start a tradition of sitting down for a hearty Martin Luther King Day dinner of chicken and waffles. Why not? I am almost convinced that holidays are created as a [...]

A Favorite Recipe – Italian Drip Beef Sandwiches

Nikki — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 06:43:24 +0000

I’m sure by now, you all know that I love cooking and especially love trying new recipes. I recently stumbled across The Pioneer Woman website, and I loved what I found. The New Yorker-turned-country-girl blogs about cooking and everything else family. In the last week, I have tried more of her recipes than I can [...]
