In the realm of barbecue and grilling, proud cooks reign with smoke and fire.
The proof is everywhere. Look at your neighbor with a Weber, or all the Facebook pages dedicated to barbecue and grilling.
There you’ll see photo after photo of baby backs, turkey, smoked meatloaf, chicken wings, beef cheeks, brisket, rib roast, even pork belly slow smoked using walnut shells. Side dishes, too.
When the Posse launched its new Web site earlier this year, we said we were going to run more items about cooking. We have.
Now, it’s your turn to share some of your knowledge about barbecue and grilling.
If you have a dish you’re proud of — main course or side — send us the recipe, a few sentences about how you discovered and developed it, and a photo. We’ll publish them on our Web site and share them with our Facebook readers. Share your recipes here.
Here's a great recipe from Tabitha Middendorf, just in time for Thanksgiving.
Be Thankful for Your Roots
By Tabitha Middendorf
I love, LOVE, root vegetables! So when the weather turns cooler and Thanksgiving is around the corner you know what I am looking forward to in all of its yummy goey glory! Sweet Potatoes! However, this year I decided to go for a crispy texture and roast the glorious vegetable with butternut squash.
The colorful combination with some sweet pearl onions and rosemary thrown in is a positive delight and nice up-twist for the holidays and winter dining.
Enjoy.
Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Squash
1 lb of cubed butternut squash
12 oz red sweet potato (commonly referred to as yams in the supermarket)
12 oz white sweet potato
4 red pearl onions
4 white pearl onions

½ cup Honey
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
