1 cup chopped scallion
¼ cup minced celery
½ cup diced pepper of your choice
1 cup chopped bacon (cooked, crispy, and not burnt)
1 hard-boiled egg chopped
3Tbls of ranch dressing powder
¼ cup Dill pickle chopped
Salt & Peppe
In a medium stock pot boil potatoes for about 7-10 minutes, or until they are soft to the touch of a fork. Strain and cool. In a medium bowl add all ingredients (excluding the chopped pickles) and stir in evenly with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula. Once everything is evenly mixed; top the salad with chopped pickles. Then cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
Chicken
4-5 chicken leg quarters split
1 ½ cups diced bacon (raw)
1 ½ Onion julienned
¼ cup chopped garlic
4 cups BBQ sauce
¼ cup brown sugar
Season the chicken using your preferred seasonings. In a large sauce pan with moderate heat; add the chopped raw bacon, as it cooks it will begin to create its own fat. Once this happens, begin adding the chicken to the pan skin-side down first. Once golden brown, flip the chicken over; reduce heat and add the julienned onions and chopped garlic. Now reduce to a simmer and cover for about 5 minutes or until the onions begin to soften. Add brown sugar and stir in evenly. After this I like to pour about a ½ cup of bourbon in and let it cook out for about 4-5 minutes (or you can use water). Then add the BBQ sauce, cover and reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes or until the chicken begins coming away from the bone. Remove from the heat and set aside; still covered.
Roast corn relish
*Preheat oven to 450 degrees**
4 cups corn
¼ cup red onion diced
1 Roasted pepper diced your choice
1Tbls Tabasco
¼ cup chopped scallion
2Tbls vegetable oil
In a small mixing bowl add all the ingredients and mix evenly. Spread mixture onto a sheet pan and place in the oven for about 7 minutes.
Construction
On a dinner plate; set down your chicken with a generous amount of BBQ (make sure you get some bacon and onions in there too!). Add a nice scoop of potato salad to the corner of the plate, now top your chicken with that sexy corn relish… owww!
ENJOY!
