Smoking salmon can be as easy or difficult as you make it. By using the highest quality salmon, however, you can produce a very high quality smoked fish product using even the most basic recipe and ingredients. Don’t be fooled into thinking the spawned out old boot that you just caught on the river is “good […]
Every once in awhile, through trial and error, you come up with something pretty good. That would be the case with my Salmon Chips. Only this time, I came up with something Damn Good…. I started making’em for the guys at work a couple years ago and kept refining it until I had a recipe that has the […]
The reality is, there is more than one way to cook a duck. The first time I brought my limit of seven ducks home I wasn’t exactly sure how I was going to cook’em or what I wanted to try. The one thing I knew for certain, is that after I breasted-out my ducks I […]
By my count there’s only five days until Christmas and some of you may be looking for an easy gift for the angler in your life that just loves to eat salmon. That’s me…I love to eat salmon and everything else for that matter. A friend introduced me to Johnny’s Salmon Finishing Sauce a couple […]
I’m always surprised at how many people grumble about the edibility of ducks and geese. Sure they’re not a ribeye steak, but given the right recipe they can be delicious.

Fortunately, there is a much better solution than deeming the contents of your freezer “Crab bait”. […]
It didn't take long to polish off 6 dozen oysters at my good buddy Geoff's going away party last night here in Gig Harbor. Geoff just got called up for 400 days of active duty in Afghanistan and what better way to send him off than with a bunch of fresh Hood Canal oysters cooked […]

It's pretty safe to say that you won't find many rice cakes on my dinner plate and friends who have ordered at restaurants with me often hear me ask,"How big is it?", or "How much food is there with this?" To keep this big frame moving at A.D.H.D. speed all day long I need to […]
Every time I cook fish there is invariably some leftovers that go in the fridge and no matter how well the Zip Loc bag or Tupperware container is sealed it's nearly impossible to keep the fish from drying out. That fresh-from-the-grill taste is only attainable, well, when it's fresh-from-the-grill. With fishery closures up and down […]
