Archive

Every year since 1998, Seasoned Cooking has posted over a hundred articles each year. Do the math and you're looking at thousands of articles chock full of all manner of recipes, tips, and ingredient & kitchen tool focuses that help you in your culinary adventures and beyond. And while it's all searchable and there's even a clever multi-select tool to help you find the perfect recipe for your needs, sometimes we all just want to take a stroll down memory lane.

That's where this Archive comes in. Just click on any year and drill down by clicking on any month within that year. Before you know it, you'll be seeing that July 1999 had us taking a tour of Chinese cuisine and March 2013 treated us to sliders with an Irish twist! So if a little wander through the site is just your speed, we have a whole lot of paths for you to take on your journey. Enjoy!

How to Turn Your Charcoal Grill into a Great Smoker Grill

If you love the intoxicating aroma and flavor of smoked turkey, chicken, ham, baby-back ribs, or fresh vegetables, but all you have is a charcoal grill — no problem. You don’t have to go down to the local smoke shack or settle for warmed-over, pre-smoked foods from the supermarket. Your own grill makes a great smoker too, and no special equipment is required.
