Van's Famous Smoked Brisket Trimmed Brisket Flat
Van Roehling Campfire Dust Seasoning™
Daddy's Moppin' Sauce (recipe below)
Season Brisket with Van Roehling Campfire Dust in every nook and cranny.  
Put this on the night before, put Brisket in a plastic bag and keep it in the fridge,
letting the seasoning soak and absorb into the meat all night long.  
 Use a BBQ pit with a fire box for indirect heat. Start the fire with a pile of briquettes.
Put on a triple blend of wood with oak, hickory and pecan.  Cook the brisket at
250-275 degrees.  After 3-4 hours and the seasoning is seared on, 
mop every 30 minutes and turn the brisket every hour.  Check for tenderness
when internal temperature is 155-160 degrees. If still a little tough,
wrap in foil and keep on the pit or cook in the oven at 300F.
Check every hour until it is as tender as you would like.

 Kabob Skewers

beef
chicken
veggies - I like to use mushrooms, onion, green and red bell peppers and zucchini
Van Roehling Campfire Dust Seasoning™
(If you like these to be a little sweet, use our Sweet Piggy Seasoning™ instead.  If you'd rather have a little heat, try one of our Cajun seasonings, either LIKE IT HOT™ or Louisiana Critter™) Van Roehling Jalapeno Red Plum Glaze and Grilling Sauce™
Alternate your meat and veggies on skewers.  Season all over with your chosen seasoning.  Grill over medium high heat until chicken is cooked through.  On your last flip, glaze with the Jalapeno Red Plum and leave on just until caramelized, only about 3-4 minutes.

 

 Steak Perfection

steak (any cut you like)
Van Roehling Sizzlin' Oak Seasoning™
2 Tablespoons OMGarlic butter (see recipe in 'Appetizers')

Choose your favorite cut of beef.  Pat dry with a paper towel, and season all over with Van Roehling Sizzlin' Oak Steak Seasoning™.   You want a nice covering coat but don't layer the seasoning.  You then grill the steak to your desired doneness.  To give you an idea, for a 3/4-inch steak at 450-475 I cook about 5 minutes the first side and 4 minutes the second side.  That will give you a nice medium well.  When you remove the steak, immediately top with about 2 tablespoons of the OMGarlic butter.  It will melt while your steak is setting and give you an amazing flavor!  

 Simply Scrumptious Burgers

Perfect Prime Rib

1 (10 pound) prime rib roast 
2 tablespoons olive oil 
2 tablespoons Van Roehling OMGarlic Seasoning™   
2 teaspoons Van Roehling Sizzlin' Oak Seasoning™ 

Place the roast in a roasting pan with the fatty side up. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil and seasonings. Spread the mixture over the fatty layer of the roast, and let the roast sit out until it is at room temperature, no longer than 1 hour.  Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.  Bake the roast for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, then reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F, and continue roasting for an additional 60 to 75 minutes. The internal temperature of the roast should be at 135 degrees F for medium rare.  Allow the roast to rest for 10 or 15 minutes before carving so the meat can retain its juices.

Van Roehling Jalapeno Red Plum Sauce™
Season shrimp, steak and veggies with Sizzlin' Oak Steak Seasoning™!  Alternate vegetables, steak and shrimp on skewers.  Place on grill and cook 4" from heat.  You'll want to cook about 6-8 minutes, per side.

Flank Steak Pinwheels
Flank steak (~ 1 1/2 - 2 pounds)
Van Roehling Sizzlin' Oak Steak Seasoning and Rub™
Garlic and Herb Cream Cheese (recipe to follow)
Fresh baby spinach, stems removed, rough chopped
Oil for grilling 
Make some shallow cuts in the flank steak, then pound out until you get a nice, thin steak to work with.  Sprinkle both sides of flank steak with Van Roehling Sizzlin' Oak Steak Seasoning and Rub™.  Now spread one side with about 8 oz of the cream cheese (according to your taste).  Then sprinkle on the baby spinach.  Roll the steak up tightly.  You can refrigerate at this point if you would like. When you are ready to cut them into pinwheels, place skewers in the meat about every 1" - 1 1/2" apart. Cut between the skewers so each piece will be the same thickness.  You want them to have the same cooking time.  Oil your grill to prevent sticking.  Grill each side 4 - 5 minutes for a medium doneness, longer if you want them more done.
