Cookin' Fools
Welcome to CookinFools.com. After spending the last 16 years sharing our exploits on just about anything that produces fire, we came to a realization. While there is no grilling season, or we could say that the grilling season is 12 months long, there are some nights we don’t want to stand next to a grill. Yeah, yeah, yeah you grill all year. So do I. But there are some days, when it’s 10 degrees outside in February, or like it was 2 days before I wrote this where it was still above 90F at 9:00 pm with humidity so high it felt like I could slice it with a knife.
Over at GrillinFools.com, we dedicated years of our lives to sharing step-by-step, pic-by-pic, foolproof grilling instructions. We decided to take that exact method/concept and do it in the kitchen. On those nights it’s so cold that even standing next to a hot grill is miserable. Or when it’s so hot – what the hell are we doing standing next to a hot grill when it’s already 100 degrees outside – we are here for you.
Welcome to CookinFools.com: What we are all about
This isn’t going to be a typical cooking site. We are going to focus on things fans of GrillinFools.com should be interested. Like maybe pulled pork or ribs in the crockpot. Or maybe a mess of chicken wings.
In fact, we will be doing a lot of chicken wings like these frozen chicken wings we cooked in an air fryer:
Wings are the perfect canvas that can be done so many ways and we will work hard to bring you our favorites which I hope become your favorites.
We will be doing so many chicken wing recipes that we gave chicken wings their own category.
We will also cook steaks on the stove (a lot of times utilizing cast iron):
All Sorts of Devices and Gadgets
We will leverage multiple cooking devices from the afore mentioned stove (which also implies oven). Or in this case, combining both chicken wings and the oven:
The crockpot/slow cooker will get a ton of usage:
To an air fryer:
And even the instant pot.
Welcome to CookinFools.com: Comfort Food
We will also do lots of comfort food. When it’s 10F degrees outside, how about some individual chicken pot pies?
In fact, this recipe was the one I wanted to feature most on this new website. I can’t rave enough about this easy chicken pot pie recipe.
Or this pot roast in the crockpot:
Or when it’s 110F degrees outside in late summer, how about using those tomatoes and basil that LOVE that kind of weather formed into a Tomato Pie:
Most Important Meal of the Day!
Breakfast is not something we do much in the grilling world, so this website will be the perfect place to feature my favorite meal.
Things like mashed potato pancakes on a countertop griddle:
Or cinnamon roll pancakes which are so simple and absolutely out of this world phenomenal:
Welcome to CookinFools.com – Mrs. Grillin’ Fool
I’ll also be drawing knowledge my amazing wife who couldn’t cook a thing when we got married, but has stepped up to the plate and really become a phenomenal cook. She has so many dishes that feed the horde that is our family of six. That’s right, we have four kids. This site will be leveraging her incredible culinary prowess for many recipes.
But we aren’t stopping there on the family recipes. We will be drawing on my mother as well as my mother-in-law plus recipes from my grandmother and some of the sources she drew on that we have saved and shall do our best to breathe new life into.
Trending?
Don’t worry, we will also do our versions of the trending favorites.
Like pork belly in the air fryer:
So, when you are staring out at the grill on frigid night, or an overwhelmingly sweltering day, and are looking to satisfy a craving, I hope you click the bookmark on your browser for this site to find something to make for yourself or the fam. So please give us that bookmark.
