Daddy's BBQ™ Recipes
Mama’s Amazing Brisket
This brisket is our signature recipe. Once you give it a try, we’re confident you’ll understand why people keep coming back for more!
1 4-7 pound beef brisket
1/2 cup Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Rub
1-2 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup of your favorite Daddy’s BBQ™ Sauce
Rinse and pat dry brisket. There are two different school’s of thought on trimming the fat. Some chefs don’t trim any of the fat before cooking, as they say it gives the meat moisture and flavor (we agree!) and some feel that it’s best to trim the excess fat before cooking. If you do, we suggest leaving a thin layer all around. If you choose to not trim the fat, you’ll want your brisket fat side up once you start cooking.
With your hands, spread a thin layer of olive oil on your brisket. Shake half of your Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Rub into a thick layer over the meat. Flip brisket and repeat. Double wrap in heavy duty aluminum foil and seal edges. It’s important that you completely seal the foil, so that you retain as much moisture and flavor during cooking. Place in a roasting pan and cook at 325º for 5 hours or more (until tender).
Top with Daddy’s BBQ™ Sauce for 30 more minutes of cooking. Another option is to serve the sauce on the side. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
Daddy's BBQ™ Three Thumbs Up Chicken
Rinse and pat dry a whole cut-up chicken (or the equivalent of your favorite
parts.)
Combine 5 Tbsp melted butter with 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil. Mix in
1/3 cup of Daddy's BBQ Sweet Love Chicken Rub. Paint the rub/butter/oil mixture onto the chicken pieces, coating thoroughly, or place the chicken and rub mixture in a zippered plastic bag, toss to coat.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 70 minutes (or until cooked through) or grill slowly over a low flame until done.
"I'd give this three thumbs up, if only I had three thumbs."
Daddy’s BBQ™ Legendary Steak
Start with a really good cut, like a rib eye, New York strip or T-bone steak.
Rub each side of the steak with about 1 Tbsp. of Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Original Rub. Drizzle just a little olive oil over the steak and rub in. Let the steak sit for 30 minutes. This gives the rub time to start a relationship with the meat and allows the meat to come to room temperature before grilling, which will make for a juicier result.
Put the steaks on the hot grill. Watch for flare-ups! You want the grill hot enough to sear the meat, but not too hot. Even if you like it well done, burning your steak will take any flavor out. If necessary, knock down flames with a water spritz.
Cooking 7 to 8 minutes on each side for a typical 1” thickness should result in a medium (pink center) doneness, although time will vary with the heat of the grill and steak size. Let sit about 5 minutes to bring juices up before serving.
Daddy’s BBQ™ Burgers
Tell us if these aren’t the best burgers you’ve ever had!
To each pound of ground beef, add 1 to 1 1/2 Tbsp. Of Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Original Rub and 2 Tbsp. Daddy’s BBQ™ Sauce. Form into patties and grill. (too much sauce will make your burgers fall apart)
This works great with any of our sauces. Folks who are serious about their burgers also say that patties cook best when they are between 1/4 and 1/3 lb. each; and that flipping only once and never pushing down on the burger while it cooks will give you the juiciest results. You will love these burgers! (Watch the flame on your grill, as Daddy’s BBQ™ Sauce will cause flare-ups that might just blacken those burgers)
Daddy’s BBQ™ Chicken on the Grill
The way to get perfect, juicy grilled bbq chicken (on the bone, of course) is simple. Parboil it. Give your chicken a little head start by adding your chicken pieces to boiling water, for about 15 minutes on a medium boil. If you’re looking for the best taste, add a little of Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Original Rub and vegetables such as a quarter onion and celery stalks during the boil. Be careful not to boil too long, as your chicken will fall off the bone!
Remove chicken with tongs, add more Sweet Love™ Original Rub (you might want to go lightly the first time, as heaping amounts of our rub will leave a fire in your mouth! The longer you cook your meats, the less intense the heat in our rub will be). Place chicken on a medium-hot grill and close the lid. Flip chicken when golden. Watch your flame, but otherwise, keep the lid down.
Paint a thick slathering of the Daddy’s BBQ™ Sauce of your choice and give it a few additional minutes to cook. Watch your back though, your neighbors’ mouths will be watering and even the best of friends just might steal your amazing chicken!
Shrimp on the Grill, Daddy’s BBQ™ style
Billy Barrett of Gulfport shared this great summertime recipe:
Start with fresh shrimp from the Gulf of Mexico (Billy likes 25-count)
About 1-2 Tbsp Olive oil per pound of shrimp (just enough to coat & make shrimp tacky)
About 1-2 tsp Daddy’s BBQ™ Sweet Love™ Original Rub per pound of shrimp (just enough to dust, as it won’t take much to set your mouth on fire! Shrimp don’t cook for very long on the grill, so you will get a lot of heat from just a little rub)
Pop the heads off the shrimp and peel to the 5th ring (leave the tail on). Use a gallon food storage bag and shake together the peeled shrimp, olive oil and rub. Place shrimp on a low grill for 4-5 minutes and flip when they begin to turn pink. Remove from grill as they are cooked through, which will only take a few minutes. For the best results, use your favorite Daddy’s BBQ Sauce as a dipping sauce and Enjoy!
(Note: this recipe gives quite the kick. If you prefer, replace olive oil and rub with a mixture of honey, garlic powder and brown sugar. Glaze shrimp with your favorite Daddy’s BBQ Sauce for the last few minutes of cooking.
