I cannot stress how much I love using my air fryer and Instant Pot. It just makes my life just so much easier to cook tasty meals without having to use the oven and it cooks in less time. I'm always trying to find new ideas and ways of cooking food, although I know not… Continue reading Air Fryer Baked Garlic and Rosemary Pork Tenderloin
I wanted to have some oven roasted potatoes but since it's too hot at this time of year, the air fryer has a feature to bake it. Love it and it's so awesome. Here's my version of air fried oven roasted potatoes. It's pretty simple and I added a few ingredients that other recipes didn't… Continue reading Air Fried Potatoes
I love grilled steak. I'm partial to charcoal because it really does give food a different taste, but we do have a gas grill and it works quite well. I wanted to try a different marinated/rub than I normally do (I'll post that when I do). I used some ingredients that are usually found in… Continue reading Marinated Grilled Beef Chuck Steak
Welcome back and thank you so much for stopping by. After having made my pernil in the Instant pot, I thought I'd wanted to make barbeque pulled pork.

Hello and thanks you for stopping by. Pernil is a staple the Puerto Rican foods. It's pork butt/shoulder that is seasoned and slowly cooked for a few hours in the oven. Most of the time it's made during the holidays, such as Christmas and perhaps thanksgiving (if you're looking to serve an "army" and need… Continue reading Pernil (Pork, Carnitas) Pressure Cooked
I've made stuffed peppers in both the oven and slow cooker. Both came out edible, but I found that when I made them in the oven, the peppers came out a little "raw." I think it's because I didn't par boil (precooked) the peppers first. When I made them in the slow cooker, the peppers… Continue reading Stuffed Peppers Pressure Cooked
