Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce

I love condiments; various mustard's, marinades, sauces, salad dressings - you name it. There are so many on the market and each has it's own unique flavors and I love to experIment with all of them. Since I love to cook, I usually have a wide variety of these and other condiments to "play" with in my recipes.

I have been aware of Country Bob's sauces for quite some time and I was recently sent two bottles to review. I have read and heard so many rave reviews of Country Bob's so I was so excited to try them.

Their motto: Christ is our CEO. I love it! As a Christian, Jesus is the center of my life and to find a company with the same philosophy is awesome!

Since I love my Cook'n Recipe Organizer, I added this burger recipe to my personal "cookbook." It's just four simple ingredients:

1 lb ground beef,
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 Tbsp Mrs. Dash Steak Seasoning
1/4 cup of Country Bob's Sauce

So simple, just mix it all until well blended and divide to 2 burgers (we were hungry). I grilled them on the George Foreman until they were cooked medium. I have to admit, they were some big burgers!!

We didn't have burger buns, but had some delicious sourdough bread from Apple Spice Junction so that was our bun. Added cheese and condiment-of-choice and dinner was done!

I love this sauce... it was the star of the show! It has just enough tang and a hint of sweet to make my taste buds get up and dance. I loved the bold flavor and how it enhanced the flavor of our burgers. Plus, adding just the right amount of the sauce made the burger that much juicier and flavorful. I've already used it in my stuffed pepper recipe with equally wonderful results.


If you are looking for some delicious recipes, you can purchase a copy of Country Bob's Cookbook which is full of recipes for any occasion. Next up for me: steaks, pulled pork and maybe even attempt a BBQ chicken pizza!

Of course, this is another way I thought of to enjoy the sauce.

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp and Scallop Kabobs with Couscous

This is a quick and easy recipe for the grill. As the weather gets nicer, it's time to break out the barbeques and cook outside. I love warm nights, sitting outside with my hubby and enjoying the fresh air.

These kabobs are easy and yummy!!! It takes just a few ingredients but yields great results.


Ingredients
6-8 Sea Scallops, rinsed
14 Large Shrimp, peeled, deveined and rinsed
8 strips of bacon, partially cooked
1 Sweet Red Pepper, cut into square pieces about 1" or so
1/2 Red Onion, cut into square pieces about 1" or so
10 button Mushrooms, stems cut off
1 Box of Plain Couscous
Garlic
Olive Oil

Once you gather all the ingredients, just skewer them up. I use the wooden skewers and to prevent them from burning, I soak them for about an hour in water. They also don't splinter as some skewers do. My skewers are bout 12 inches long, but some of the metal ones can be twice the length.

I wrap each shrimp and each scallop with a half strip of bacon, overlapping slightly, and pierce the edges. The bacon will surround the scallops and shrimp and hold in moisture while giving it amazing flavor. I alternate fish, veggies and use the mushrooms for my end caps.

Grill over medium heat until shirimp are pink and scallops firm. Serve with plain or flavored couscous.
