Easy…Delicious…Cheap Economical.

My daughter loved this so much – she asked me to make it again for dinner the following night. Don’t be intimidated by smoking chips.  I buy mine from Walmart (foodies can still shop there) in the outdoor area where grills are sold.  I like these smoking chips because they are in small pieces and easy to work with.

This dish is delicious served with my Coleslaw recipe that is refined sugar free and AIP.

I hope you enjoy this as much as we do!
