OMG, these were seriously damn delicious! I made them because I wanted to make brisket sandwiches with my leftover brisket and had no buns. I have to say, that I won’t buy buns again. These buns were soft, but they held up to all of the bbq sauce better than any bun I have ever had!

I love ALL of the recipes on Damn Delicious, but this creamy chorizo queso is really damn delicious. It is so flavorful and fun. I made it as an appetizer before burgers and brats with the family. Soon the burgers and brats were forgotten and we were wanting to take a bath in the queso dip.

One of my favorite vegetable side dishes. So easy to make, and it’s a breeze to improvise with other additions – onions, jalapeños, even tomatoes. My husband loves it too, so since he’s a picky veggie eater, this is a winner.

Made this tonight exactly as posted – so delicious! I feel like a lot of chicken start to seem similar but NOT this one. Very different and unique flavors that tasted amazing. Not overpowering with mustard, just enough. The rosemary added an awesome flavor.

This marinade is so delicious! I also use it on chicken for “pollo asada” too because it’s sometimes too expensive or hard to find good beef cuts here. Definitely my go to marinade recipe for burritos and tacos with grilled or seared meats.
