Stuftivus (STUFF-teh-vus): a combination of American neighborhood barbecue and stuffy Upper East Side Salon without the pretentious jackasses. Eat, drink, discuss, play and meet.
While Waiting For Stuftivus Two
I am not a trained chef or cook. I have never prepared any food as a commercial enterprise, though I have made some cash for our PTA and other organizations selling tri-tip sandwiches and whole tri-tips. I'm just a self trained guy who likes to prepare and eat food.
While we wait for Stuftivus Two I will use this site to post some pretty simple recipes and ideas I use or have come up with that anyone should be able to duplicate.
I do not measure so a lot of what I use is guesswork, but that makes it easier for you to adjust to your tastes. Most of what I post here you will be able to substitute, add, subtract your own flavors.
Enjoy and send some of your ideas back, I love to cook and I love to eat!

Stuftivus One
Our inaugural Stuftivus will be held at Smokey and Wonder Woman's backyard centralized around Smokey's outdoor cooker, the event is invitation only on March 21, 2009 from 3ish to 7ish. Smokey and Reno Mike will be providing the proteins and guests will be allocated sides (no salads or vegetables is possible--starches are good) and beverages. Attendees are encouraged to come hungry and to wear good eatin' clothes, its is going to get messy!
Stuftivus Presented By
Dennis, aka Smokey: Smokey has not burned down anything with his grill yet but that has not stopped him from trying. He thinks the Holy Trinity is Pork, Beef and Chicken perfectly slow cooked over heat outdoors. Homemade sauce and strict avoidance of any recipes makes every meal unique. Smokey's roots are 5th generation Okie and he swears his blood tastes like a cross between KC and South Carolina sauces. Smokey welcomes everyone to his Barbecue Salon!
Leslie, aka Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman tries to be the voice of reason for an event whose centerpiece is pork wrapped pork, thankfully she is able to accept failure. Despite her protestations of "Oh God Smokey that meal will seize up your heart" she is found elbow to elbow with the best of them. Wonder Woman is as gracious a hostess as anyone can find and Stuftivus is lucky she has allowed the doors to be open for the event.
Mike, aka Reno Mike, brings some refinement to the proceedings--or we let him think he does. Pork is not his middle name but his middle does not hide his love for the species. Reno Mike engages all in culinary and theoretical cook offs adding spice to both. A driving force behind Stuftivus, Reno Mike insists that the beverage wars should be behind us and whether it is a stout, an ale, a cabernet or a pitcher of Margaritas he thinks we can all just get along...long enough to discuss thermal nuclear grilling techniques and how they adhere to the Wobegon Treaty.
