Inuvik Chopped – BBQ Edition
Written by: Faye
I got roped into round 2 of Inuvik Chopped. This one was a BBQ edition and I don’t own a BBQ so I teamed up with my former competitor Evan for our big comeback. This time the mystery ingredients were:
- Bacon
- Smokies
- Pilot Biscuits
- Mustard
- Ketchup Chips
- Maple Syrup
- Marshmallows
- Jalapeno
Instead of doing a 3-course meal like last time, this time we decided to combine all of the ingredients into one mega-dish: the “Ultimate Canadian Summer Smokie-S’more” — smokies wrapped in bacon, coated in melted marshmallows and covered in sprinkled grilled jalapeno, pilot crackers and ketchup chips, then covered in a chocolate barbecue sauce that included the maple syrup and mustard.
Just like last time, you can watch videos of the cooking and the results on the Town of Inuvik facebook page.
And the Inuvik Drum article.
Home Garden Update
Written by: Faye
Our home garden is doing well. Our tomato plant has gotten huge, but hasn’t produced any tomatoes yet, so it’s really more decorative than functional. The kale and chard aren’t growing as well as they do outdoors, but they’re plodding along. The herbs are really nice to have, and it’s hard to beat the convenience of your own window.
