Thanksgiving 2025 is a wrap! Turkey came out great, pork belly burnt ends always hit the spot. The gravy was an absolute highlight and the rolls were a surprise win for a first time bake. The mashed potatoes are always a win, this year I did smoked garlic and cheddar mixed in and a parmesan crust on top. Lisa made the butternut squash dish, the roasted balsamic carrots and doctored up some cranberry sauce from Costco. Tons of leftovers will make for some great sandwiches, tacos and omelette creations. I am thankful for those of you I have connected with through this platform. Especially thankful for those that encourage my journey OR I have inspired and you let me know, it keeps me going! Thankful for @bearmountainbbq and @cabotcreamery for the support all year and being an instrumental part of this meal! I also have to shout-out @scaleandtailor for putting together a food and fitness accountability group that has really kept me going this year. An incredible group of supportive friends who inspire me daily. #thanksgiving #bearmountainbbq #cabotcheese

Cabot Cheese delivery day!! Who is coming over for an aged @cabotcreamery cheese tasting party? When you get so many different ages of cheddar it’s only fair to open them all and do some progressive taste testing and then do some blind testing for favorites!! Thank you so much Cabot for fueling my addiction!

Fulfilling that hotdog craving I used the @slotdogdotcom to optimize my grilled dog experience. Once the turkey dogs opened up a bit I have them a healthy dose of @neilsarap tasty bark. The @bearmountainbbq gourmet blend gave these dogs a perfect char and texture all around. In a toasted bun. I loaded up some @cabotcreamery sharp cheddar and @tbjgourmet uncured bacon jam. Super simple, but absolutely what I was craving. #hotdogs #grillingseason #slotdog #bearmountainbbq #dinnergoals

Beef jerky is always the best snack I love making smoked beef jerky. The @bearmountainbbq old fashioned pellet blend is perfect for jerky, with a lovely smoke flavor that really accents the beef. You really can’t go wrong, playing with marinade flavors and then giving a nice low temp smoke to dry out the thin slices of eye of round. Smoke low and slow. Flip occasionally and pull it off the smoker when you can give the slice a bend and see the white lines as you bend vs it being flexible or over cooked and cracking. #beefjerky #bearmountainbbq #snacks #smokergrill #yodersmokers

This doughnut is calling your name. Protein and a chocolate doughnut, guilt free and so good! If you grew up getting the doughnuts in a box at the grocery store as a kid, this doughnut will hit all the marks for nostalgia! A nice chocolate coating and a fluffy interior paired perfectly with an espresso. This was an ideal post workout protein and coffee kickstart to my work day. #QuestDonuts #QuestSquad #OnAQuest #QuestPartner

Some days call for a double cheeseburger! A brioche bun loaded with two turkey burgers smoked with @bearmountainbbq old fashioned blend for a nice smokey flavor. This pellet flavor brings a ton of goodness to turkey! May need to use it as part of my thanksgiving planning. The burgers are topped with some @cabotcreamery cheddar cheese. I used @pepperexchange Cayenne creole mustard as my sauce and brought some balance with shredded mixed greens and @grillospickles pickle chips. #turkeyburger #cheeseburger #doublecheeseburger #bearmountainbbq #pepperpartner #cayennecreolemustard

Meal prepping some Grilled Chicken Breast Having chicken breast on hand and ready to go is such a great way to add protein to a meal. This is my go to approach as I love the ability to add that woodfired flavor via @bearmountainbbq pellets. Each wood gives its own subtle twist to the chicken. Changing up the rubs and seasonings gives me loads of variety. No added oils, all the flavor. Easy to do a large batch! #chickenbreast #grilling #bearmountainbbq #woodfired #healthyeating #mealprep

French onion soup meatballs. When you’re craving French onion soup but also need to get that protein in, this is the way. Smoked turkey meatballs, finished in French onions soup.
