New seasonal salad rolling out tonight. Watermelon with arugula, lime pickled red onion, pistachios, queso fresco tossed in a key lime vinaigrette. Come by to check this dish out in addition to the rest of our elevated bar food and excellent beers!

New addition to the menu. This Southern Fried Chicken Thigh Sandwich has a buttermilk marinated boneless/skinless chicken thigh, iceberg lettuce, pickles and house made comeback sauce. Simple, classic, delicious!

Local blueberry lemon bread pudding with lemon creme anglais and blueberry puree. Delightful on a hot day, or cold, or whatever.

Special tonight … lent friendly Cajun Shrimp and Grits.

Cajun spiced shrimp sautéed with red bell pepper, wood grilled onions, garlic with a healthy dose of butter love on top of cheddar cheese grits.

Despite the snow the show must go on. Good time last night.

The view of Portland for this week. Turns out this Michigan boy brought some snow with him for Christmas.

Merry Christmas y’all from the Pacific NW.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

And don’t forget leftover turkey! Here you have smoked turkey pot pie. The key was adding the liquid butter and juices from the sous vide bag to the gravy. Yum!

12/03/2020

Thanksgiving was a wild success this year. All told, I smoked 5 whole birds and 4 turkey breast. The method of brine, smoke, sous vide, and broil is certainly time consuming, but so worth the trouble.

It’s been a dark, dreary day and I’m out here cookin’ like Julia Child bi***es!

Smoked wings, no filter.

Just tossed in my smokin’ honey wing sauce. These are to die for.

09/25/2020

Brine, rub, smoke, fry then toss in sauce. These wings are a labor of love, and you can taste it.

Black Angus Beef Chuck Roll “Burnt Ends” are finished in Espresso BBQ Sauce. Yum!!!

09/07/2020

Really nice marbling on the Black Angus chuck roll I will be making burnt ends with this week. Gonna finish with my espresso bbq sauce. Did a trial run this past week any they were bangin!

08/24/2020

Messing around with a kitchen toy I’ve had for a while but never used. Going to be injecting pork tenderloin with mojo marinade for this weeks cook.

08/20/2020

Busted out the official Claremont Diner salad recipe for my coleslaw this week to rave reviews. I still like the idea of doing a seasonal call slaw, but the original is pretty damn bangin!

Proof that I’m that a-hole dad who slid while wearing shorts in parents vs kids baseball game. But hey, I was the winning run so I had to slide, right? 🤷‍♂️

08/04/2020

With Isaias on the way tomorrow’s cook has been pushed up to tonight. I’m just hoping (he/she) is outta here by Tuesday night so I can get my tri-tips on without taking a nature shower.

In BBQ smoke world, blue smoke is the jawn you’re looking for. It means you’ve got your cooker dialed in with the right amount of oxygen, fuel and heat. It’s a beautiful thing! This food is gonna taste great! #cheflocal #undergroundbbq #thelocal #bbq #bluesmoke #bbqnerd

Broke out the ice cream maker and made Drambuie Vanilla Ice Cream for the dessert program @atthetablebyob. More good stuff to come. #cheflocal #atthetablebyob #boozyicecream

How sharp do you keep your knives? My employer has a service come and sharpen knives for us, which is really cool. However, I prefer to sharpen my own.... yup, that’s pretty sharp. #cheflocal #thelocal #chefsknife #staysharp #wetstone #diy #sharpAF

Ladies and gentlemen, the payoff. #lacabrabrewing #beerwyn #cheflocal #smokedmeat #brisket #smokedbrisket #bbq #foodie
