Hello everyone!  Hope the week finds everyone well!  

This Saturday we have an extra special treat for all of you gearing up for the grilling season - enjoying the afternoons lingering to twilight, hanging out with friends and family, brewskie in hand and grill fired up.  This year try grilling out with a "smokin" twist with our pecan wood chips.  And you don't need a smoker to enjoy the delicious smokey pecan flavor added to of your favorite foods. 

Or if you want the flavor sans the grilling - try our Pecan Smoked Pecans this week - a Savage-Power creation the boys "smoked up" while enjoying a relaxing Spring evening and a round of horseshoes down by the pond...you can almost taste the leisure and relaxation - a little sample of the dog days to come...

And read on to discover just how to do SIY ("Smoke It Yourself) and more of what you'll find at our table this week...oh! AND a gallery opening in the wings too!

how to....

Pecan Wood Chips - smoking on the grill....
  • THE EASY WAY.... sprinkle some Pastures of Rose Creek Pecan Wood Chips over your charcoals to add that savory pecan smoked flavor.
  • THE MORE SOPHISTICATED WAY....
  1. Prepare the gas barbecue for the desire temperature. For long slow-cooked meats like baby back pork ribs or beef brisket, use a lower temperature, such as 250 degrees F. For meats that cook quickly, like burgers, steaks and sausages, use medium-high to high heat.
  2. Place the wood chips in a disposable aluminum broiler pan. These pans are available at most supermarkets.
  3. Set the broiler pan over one burner at one end of the barbecue. Once the wood chips smolder, reduce the heat under the broiler pan to low or turn it off so the wood chips smolder slowly and continually. Keep all the other burners on.
  4. Use an oven thermometer or the built-in thermostat on your barbecue to help regulate the temperature of the barbecue.
  5. Close the barbecue cover until the desired temperature of your barbecue is reached, then place the meats on the grill at the opposite end from the smoldering wood chips and cook. For longer grilling times, add more soaked wood chips to the broiler pan as needed.

Calling all pottery lovers, admirers and enthusiasts!...Bradford Pottery is now open for business!  Stop on by to check out John's new gallery space in the heart of Bishop...can't miss it - right across the street from "Antique Road" on 441...big blue building with "POTTERY" spelled out in neat, white letters.  

The gallery is stocked with beautiful earthy pieces from John's latest anagama wood firing plus some new eye catching pieces from his recent gas firing.  Also, fellow potter and former tenant of the space - Dottie Schaefer - will be showcased there.

In addition to the gallery space, John has a beautiful open studio - where interested parties can view the magical, mesmerizing process of throwing on a wheel and soon will be able to take classes themselves (in the process of acquiring more wheels - anyone out there know of any for sale?).

The GRAND OPENING is tentatively planned for the evening of May 11  - we will keep you posted!  It will certainly be a worthwhile and fun event!

Until then - you can find John and his many pots at:
