April 18, 2025 Ham is hog’s leap to immortality. But that leap takes time. From a few weeks for your basic cooked ham to up to a year or more for a truly great dry-cured, cold-smoked ham like Italian speck or German schwartzwelder schinken (Black Forest ham).

April 15, 2025 I recently dined at my new favorite barbecue restaurant in Miami: Apocalypse BBQ. While the brisket dazzled and the ribs required ordering seconds, what really blew my mind was the cornbread.

1: Set up your grill for direct grilling and heat to high. Brush or scrape the grill grate clean. Butter the molds. 2: Meanwhile, brush the corn with 1 tablespoon melted butter and season it generously with salt and pepper. Grill the corn until the kernels are browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side, 8 to 12 minutes in all. While you’re at it, grill the poblanos until charred black on all sides.

Now it’s time to fire up your griddle for dessert. Why Grilled or Griddled Fruit Just WorksMost of us don’t associate the griddle with desserts, but elsewhere on the planet, griddled desserts are a big deal.
