Ask anyone to name their favorite comfort foods and more likely than not meatloaf and mac-and-cheese will top the list.

While both dishes are relatively basic in both preparation and presentation -- especially in the age of Instagram food pron -- something truly magical happens as soon as they hit the table. Life could literally be falling apart around you yet suddenly you’re back in your childhood home enjoying mom’s “Meatloaf Monday” or in your college dorm room diving into instant mac-and-cheese (completed with neon orange “cheese” powder) after a night out on the town.

But why choose between two truly comforting dishes when you can crank the nostalgia levels up to eleven and create something truly epic for dinner? Enter our Smoked Mac and Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf recipe, created as part of Grillocracy’s ongoing relationship* with the fine folks at Certified Angus Beef® brand.

Thai Coconut Curry Soup with Grilled Flank Steak

July 25, 2023

While the base of this dish is a flavor packed coconut and curry noodle soup but the real star is the steak which receives a healthy dose of an Asian inspire dry rub seasoning before being grilled hot-and-fast.

Homemade Pastrami from Corned Beef Brisket

Smoked Pastrami from Store Bought Corned Beef

For many, St. Patrick's Day is all about green beer and day long pub crawls. But for me it means some sweet deals on ready-to-prepare corned beef, especially a couple days after the holiday. And while I love to have a few on hand it the freezer for corned beef sandwiches throughout the year (or, better yet, for my corned beef burger recipe found here), they are also a great shortcut for making your own smoked pastrami.

St. Paddy Melt

March 13, 2022

Next Thursday is St. Patrick's Day and in celebration of the holiday, we've got one of my favorite original burger recipes -- the St. Patty Melt.

It all came to me as I walked past one of the countless delicatessens surrounding my New York City office and spied my favorite corned beef Reuben sandwich! A great sandwich, true, but why stop there? I then turned to another local favorite, the patty melt, and asked myself why the heck I couldn’t turn corned beef into a burger and create a Reuben inspired patty melt.
