My dad loved a good baked potato. And while this isn’t my Dad’s official Baked Potato recipe—as one, technically, does not exist—it is made precisely in the way he would have loved, that is, with a crispy flavorful skin and a warm fluffy potatoey interior….perfect for a little melted butter, chives, and whatever other fixins’…

Limoncello!
There is something that just sounds cool about making your own wine or brewing your own beer. Aside from it sounding cool, it can actually taste pretty good too. With both of those endeavors, though, you have to get some extra equipment and it can end up being a rather costly affair…and, sadly, sometimes the…
The Perfect Steak
I love a great steak! Truth be told, though, for most of my adult life, I have not been making a great steak. I tried. Many different ways. It definitely wasn’t for lack of trying. I tried many different seasonings, many different cuts of meat, many different ways of cooking it, and the only thing…
Kansas City BBQ Dry Rub
If you’ve made my Instant Pot Brisket, you already know this rub. It’s the reason that brisket tastes the way it does — sweet, smoky, with just enough heat to keep things interesting. I’ve been using this Kansas City-style BBQ dry rub for years and I put it on everything: brisket, ribs, chicken thighs, even…
Power Pancakes (feat. My Sister, Barb)

Hot Chocolate Spoons
Every year, one song sort of emerges as my Official Song for Christmas. Last year, it was “Baby, It’s Cold Outside.” The year before that was the Jars of Clay version of “Little Drummer Boy.” “Little Drummer Boy” was never one of my favorites growing up until I heard their version. Incredible…you’ve got to check…
Homemade Honey White Balsamic Vinaigrette
When I have a really good salad dressing, I can’t get enough! It almost becomes an obsession…I seem to want it on every salad that I have for weeks on end. That was the reaction when I first started developing this amazing Honey White Balsamic Vinaigrette. Truth be told, it went through a few iterations…
Homemade Avocado Poppy Seed Salad Dressing
When I was a kid, I loved store-bought salad dressings and, admittedly, I was a bit of a dressing snob. Wish-Bone was the only brand I liked…Italian, Thousand Island and those two sugary red dressings, French and Russian, that I could never really figure out the difference. Thinking about it, they don’t really seem French…
Homemade Shallot Vinaigrette
Is it wrong that I consider myself a Salad Dressing Connoisseur? I know, it’s probably weird to be a self-proclaimed expert on Salad Dressing of all things. But, I don’t know if you’ve heard, my salad dressings are kinda a big deal. Haha! I’m totally kidding but, in all honesty, when people try them, I…
Instant Pot Month:Instant Pot BBQ Brisket
We are in the middle of Instant Pot month here on Tiny Kitchen Big Taste and today we’re cooking up a wonderful BBQ Brisket; it is one of my Dad’s all-time favorites. Sometimes in life, I think God winks at you to let you know He’s there and in control. Currently, I am in Colorado…

This is a super tasty Seafood Paella that you can make in an Instant Pot. With the traditional "Socarrat" finish (optional), it's an authentic take on this iconic Spanish favorite.
Tiny Kitchen Keto Month:Keto Pizza with aGluten-Free Cauliflower Crust
To say that pizza was a staple in my house growing up would be an understatement. After all, we’re Italian…we have pizza at least 17 times a week, right!?! A Keto Pizza with a Cauliflower Crust, on the other hand, is another thing altogether. I don’t think the words Keto Pizza or Cauliflower Crust were…
