Making pizza at home: what do you like on them?

We are always experimenting with different toppings, but some of my favorites are bacon and pickled jalapeños, white pizza (mozzarella and asiago) with Old Bay shrimp and white pizza with pesto sauce.

Mac & cheese question

I've made this recipe before, with good results and I have to agree the key is constant stirring over low heat. Once you think you've stirred it enough, stir it some more. It's a bit time consuming, but well worth the effort.

Do you shop Farmers' Markets or belong to a CSA?

I joined a CSA this past summer and love it. When I received vegetables I was unfamiliar with, I found it fun to look up recipes and do a little research. Without my CSA I probably wound not have discovered how yummy swiss chard is. Dealing with the over supply issue, I simply froze any excess veggies. Just this past week, we enjoyed some summer corn.

Thanks for the advice! I too will be BBQ-ing well into the fall-winter months.

BBQ 2009: Your Successes?

I just started experimenting with dry rubs and using indirect heat combined with smoking hickory chips. I've done both chicken and ribs. The ribs came out delicious, the chicken came out pretty good, although the skin can be a bit rubbery. Any tips?
