This week’s “Tasty Things in Life” is a two-fer. One from me. One from Jake. All from the same place.
This is Jake’s – it’s the Chili from Bubba’s Smokehouse BBQ in La Jolla, CA. He absolutely loves this chili. It’s got BBQ brisket inside the chili. This makes Jake do an inner happy dance and he tells everyone he meets about this place because he loves this chili so much. Even I eat spoonfuls of it when he gets it and I don’t even like beans.Crazy.
Of course, my thing would be something sweet. I’ve talked about this pie before here but I’ll just say it again: this is a damn good Pecan Pie. This is the kind of pecan pie for people who LOVE pecans though since it’s heavy on the nuts and less on the pie goo. The crust is flaky and buttery. The pie comes out pipping hot. It comes with this insane caramel bourbon sauce thing. You should go get it. Seriously. Go. YUM.
I don’t know how to wrap these two things together to make a question. Talk amongst yourselves. Don’t get verklempt.
Ah, yes, I remember Jake talking about Bubba’s. Now the question is: venture out to try Bubba’s or go back to Coop’s??
But that pecan pie looks mighty delicious! I love a good layer of pecans on my pies.
ooh, that pie!!!!!!! looks fab with all those pecans! yes to more pecans and less goo!
Hi Leanne – I’m sure you want to try new things, don’t you?!
Hi CC – This pie has so many pecans on it! I love it. 🙂
