Grilled Texas Toast Recipes

Steps:

• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat.
• In a microwave-safe bowl, combine butter, garlic spread, and seasoning. Cook in microwave on high setting about 1 minute. Brush each slice of bread on 1 side with butter mixture. Place bread on grill, buttered-side down, and cook for 1 minute. For nice grill marks on bread, turn each slice 1/4 turn and grill for an additional 30 seconds.
• Remove from grill and serve warm.
• INDOOR: Prepare butter spread and brush 1 side of bread as directed. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place bread, buttered-side down, in a skillet and cook until golden, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Mash avocados in a large bowl. Add onion, lime juice, jalapeno, cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Stir tomato into the guacamole.
• Spread desired amount of guacamole over 2 bread slices; top each with 2 slices Havarti cheese. Cover with the remaining 2 slices bread; butter the outsides.
• Heat a skillet to medium-high heat. Cook sandwiches until golden brown on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until other side is browned, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Steps:

• Toast bread in toaster.
• Preheat skillet over medium heat.
• Spread mayonnaise on each slice of bread.
• Place both slices of cheese between the two slices of bread (on the mayonnaise side).
• Melt butter in the skillet.
• Place the sandwich in the skillet with the butter.
• Use a spatula to turn sandwich from side to side until cheese is melted.
• When the cheese is melted and the outside is crispy and browned to your taste, remove the sandwich and cut into your favorite shape (diagonal, or half, or into four squares).
• Serve on a plate with your favorite side, chips, tomato soup, BOTH!

Steps:

• Mix together all the spices in a bowl. Liberally rub the entire brisket with the spices, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours. Remove the brisket from the refrigerator 1 hour before beginning the smoking process to take the chill off, and remove the plastic wrap.
• Get your smoker running at 225 degrees F with hardwood charcoal and a few handfuls of soaked wood chips. This temperature should be maintained throughout the entire smoke. (If you are using a grill: Set up the grill for indirect heat, banking the coals on one side of the grill and scattering the wood chips on top. Maintain the temperature at 225 degrees throughout the smoking process, adding chips as necessary, until you wrap the brisket in foil.)
• Place the brisket fat-side up on your smoker grate and close it up for the long smoke.
• Open your barbecue smoker every hour or 2 and spray the brisket liberally with apple juice to help keep the meat from drying out. Also keep apple juice in the water pan if you are using a water smoker.
• When the internal temperature reaches 165 to 170 degrees, after about 4 hours, wrap the brisket in aluminum foil and continue to cook for another 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours. This little trick is a big help in getting the meat tender, especially for beginners. Figure that a brisket smoked at around 200 degrees will take about 1 1/2 hours per pound. The brisket is done when the internal temperature reaches 185 degrees F. Remove and let rest 20 minutes before slicing. Remove the foil from the brisket over a large pan or disposable pan and reserve the liquid. Cut off the brisket points and reserve for another use (such as Honey-Rum Pinto Beans with Burnt Ends). After the points are removed, look to see which way the grain runs and slice thinly across the grain. Smear some barbecue sauce on Grilled Texas Toast, top with brisket and Pickled Red Onions.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high. Heat the oil in a small saute pan and cook the garlic for 1 minute. Let cool slightly. Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper. Grill the bread until lightly golden brown on both sides. Remove from the grill and spread 1 side of each slice with some of the garlic butter.
• Bring the vinegar, sugar, mustard seeds and 1 tablespoon salt to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar and salt dissolves, about 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool for 10 minutes. Add the onions and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.

Steps:

• Pour the oil to a depth of 1 inch in a large cast-iron skillet with high sides. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper and set aside. Set up the dredging station: Place the flour in a shallow dish. Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and mustard in a separate shallow dish. Combine the panko and House Seasoning in a third shallow dish.
• Dredge one pork chop in the flour. Dip in the eggs, then in the panko. Place on a wire rack and repeat the process with the remaining pork chops. Fry the pork chops, in batches, until golden brown and a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 145 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve hot with the Texas toast.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Mix together the butter and garlic in a bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Brush both sides of the bread with the butter and place on the grill. Grill the bread for 1 to 2 minutes per side until lightly golden brown.

Steps:

• Warm a griddle or nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Then add 1 tablespoon butter until warmed. Next, add the bread in batches to the griddle and allow to brown or crisp on the first side, 1 to 2 minutes. After browning, flip the bread and repeat the process on the second side. Season with salt and pepper. Remove after browning and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the grill to medium-high. Heat the oil in a small saute pan and cook the garlic for 1 minute. Let cool slightly. Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper. Grill the bread until lightly golden brown on both sides. Remove from the grill and spread 1 side of each slice with some of the garlic butter.
