Italian Piccolo Panino with a Smoked Ice Negroni

Cook Time 25 Minutes

Serves 4

For the Smoked Ice Negroni (1 serving)

  • 4 cups ice cubes
  • 1 oz Aviation Gin
  • 1 oz Italian bitter aperitif
  • 1 oz sweet vermouth
  • 1 orange, sliced for garnishing

For the Italian piccolo panino

  • 1 tbsp calabrian chili, finely diced
  • 1 tsp calabrian chili oil
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • Kosher salt, for seasoning
  • 1 French baguette, sliced into 16 thin slices. We like La Brea Bakery
  • 16 bite sized slices fontina cheese
  • 1 (7oz) raw honeycomb
  • 8 slices Italian ham
  • 8 slices salami
  • 8 slices prosciutto
  • 2 cups arugula microgreens

For the smoked ice negroni:

 

To smoke your ice, start by placing your ice or water on a sheet tray (or metal bowl) and smoke on a grill or smoker for 20 to 30 minutes. Once completely cool, pour the liquid into ice cube molds and place them in the freezer until frozen. We like to use large round ice balls for this recipe! 

 

In a cocktail shaker, add normal ice, followed by Aviation Gin, Italian bitter aperitif and sweet vermouth. Stir (or shake) well for 10 seconds. In a glass, add one of your smoked ice cubes, then with a strainer, pour in your negroni.  Cut a piece of orange peel off and squeeze to release the oils and place inside the glass. Garnish with half a slice of orange. Enjoy! 

 

For the Italian piccolo panino:

 

In a medium bowl, add your mascarpone cheese, your diced calabrian chili, lemon juice, calabrian chili oil and mix well until evenly combined. Season with Kosher salt to taste.

 

Begin building your paninos by smearing 1 tsp of honeycomb to the bottom slice, followed by fontina cheese (you can use a torch to melt the cheese), Italian ham, salami, prosciutto, microgreens and top with another slice smeared with your calabrian chili spread.

Course Dinner, Lunch, Tailgate
Keyword Beef, Burger, Sandwich
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup dehydrated onions
  • 1 pound 80/20 ground beef
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • 12 slider sized potato rolls
  • 12 dill pickles

Instructions

  • Rehydrate the onions by covering them with 1/2 cup lukewarm water in a small bowl. Set aside while you prep the patties.
  • On parchment paper lined quarter sheet tray (or metal 13×9 baking dish) loosely break up the beef into an even layer. Season generously with kosher salt. Gently press the beef down into a single thin layer, pushing it into the corners of the tray. Finally top the beef with more parchment and use another tray of baking dish to press down on the beef. Remove the top tray and paper. Use a knife to cut the beef into 12 squares then dock the squares with the thick end of a skewer – this helps the bun steam and keeps the patties from shrinking up.
  • Drain the onions. Heat a flat top or large skillet to medium high heat. Sprinkle on the onions and cook for 1 minute. Add the beef patties, giving some space between them. Top each patty with a bottom bun. Cook the patties for 3 minutes total time. Flip the patties and remove from the grill, onions up. Top each patty with a dill pickle slice and top with the other bun half.

BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich with Root Beer BBQ Sauce and Mustard Slaw

Author Mark & Fey
Print Pin
Course Dinner, Lunch, Meal Prep, Sandwich
Keyword Labrea Bakery, Pork, pulled pork, Sandwich
Cook Time 4 hours 30 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients

For the pork and sandwich

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless pork shoulder
  • Spiceology Salt Pepper + Three Chiles Spice blend
  • 6 LaBrea Bakery Take and Bake Everything Rolls

For the Root Beer BBQ Sauce

  • 2 cups ketchup
  • 1 cup root beer
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon molasses
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • Freshly ground black pepper for seasoning

For the mustard slaw

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • Freshly ground black pepper for seasoning
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 16-ounce bag tri-color coleslaw cabbage mix
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons honey mustard
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed

Instructions

  • Pat the pork shoulder dry and season all over with Salt Pepper + Three Chiles seasoning. You can dry brine overnight, uncovered in the fridge or tightly wrapped in plastic – just remember to turn your wrapped collar about halfway through brining, if it is wrapped.
  • You can make the BBQ sauce the day before or while the pork shoulder smokes. Combine the ketchup, root beer, vinegar and molasses in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until thickened, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside to cool. 
  • Remove the pork shoulder from the fridge. Set a smoker to low heat, about 300 degrees F. Add the pork directly to the smoker and cook low and low until it hits an internal temperature close to 200 degrees F, this will take 4 to 5 hours. Remove the smoker from the smoker, cool it for 10 minutes and wrap tightly in butcher paper to rest for 45 minutes while you prep the Honey Mustard Coleslaw. 
  • Make the mayo for the slaw by combining the egg, lemon juice, mustard, and oil in a carafe or jar that fits an immersion blender. Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Use the immersion blender to process the mixture for about 1 minute or until thick. 
  • Add the mayo to a mix bowl and add the coleslaw mix. Add the vinegar, mustard and celery seeds. Toss the slaw together and then taste. Add more salt or pepper as desired. 
  • Use gloves hands to pull apart the pork and toss with about a cup of the BBQ sauce.  Slice  LaBrea Bakery Take and Bake Everything Rolls in half and brush with vegetable oil. Grill for 2 minutes on the cut side. 
  • Build the sandwiches with some of the pulled pork, BBQ sauce, and slaw on each bun.

  • 1 oz Italian bitter aperitif
  • 1 oz sweet vermouth
  • 1 orange, sliced for garnishing

For the Italian piccolo panino

  • 1 tbsp calabrian chili, finely diced
  • 1 tsp calabrian chili oil
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese
  • Kosher salt, for seasoning
  • 1 French baguette, sliced into 16 thin slices. We like La Brea Bakery
  • 16 bite sized slices fontina cheese
  • 1 (7oz) raw honeycomb
  • 8 slices Italian ham
  • 8 slices salami
  • 8 slices prosciutto
  • 2 cups arugula microgreens

For the smoked ice negroni:

 

To smoke your ice, start by placing your ice or water on a sheet tray (or metal bowl) and smoke on a grill or smoker for 20 to 30 minutes. Once completely cool, pour the liquid into ice cube molds and place them in the freezer until frozen. We like to use large round ice balls for this recipe! 

 

In a cocktail shaker, add normal ice, followed by Aviation Gin, Italian bitter aperitif and sweet vermouth. Stir (or shake) well for 10 seconds. In a glass, add one of your smoked ice cubes, then with a strainer, pour in your negroni.  Cut a piece of orange peel off and squeeze to release the oils and place inside the glass. Garnish with half a slice of orange. Enjoy! 

 

For the Italian piccolo panino:

 

In a medium bowl, add your mascarpone cheese, your diced calabrian chili, lemon juice, calabrian chili oil and mix well until evenly combined. Season with Kosher salt to taste.

 

Begin building your paninos by smearing 1 tsp of honeycomb to the bottom slice, followed by fontina cheese (you can use a torch to melt the cheese), Italian ham, salami, prosciutto, microgreens and top with another slice smeared with your calabrian chili spread.

Flank Steak Sammy with Mojo de Ajo

Flank Steak Sammy with Mojo de Ajo

Author Mark & Fey
Print Pin
Keyword Beef, Labrea Bakery, Sandwich, Steak, take-and-grill
Cook Time 35 minutes
Servings 5

Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon The Grill Dad’s Salt Pepper + Chocolate Chile seasoning
  • 1 large head garlic peeled, about 20 cloves
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • 1 large lime juiced, about 3 tablespoons
  • ½ cup freshly squeeze orange juice
  • 1 4-ounce stick salted butter, melted and cooled
  • 3 tablespoons grapefruit juice
  • Black pepper for seasoning
  • 5 sprigs fresh oregano
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced provolone cheese
  • 1 La Brea Bakery Take-and-Bake French Baguette
  • 1 cup spring greens mix or arugula

Instructions

  • Season the flank steaks on all sides with the Salt Pepper + Chocolate Chiles seasoning. Set aside while you prepare the grill. 
  • Heat a gas or charcoal grill for medium-high direct heat. 
  • While the grill is heating, you can roast the garlic for the mojo de ajo. Combine the garlic cloves and olive oil in a small heat proof skillet. Season with a generous pinch of kosher salt. Set inside the grill and cook with the grill closed for 15 to 20 minutes or until the garlic is tender and lightly golden. Remove from the grill and cool for 10 minutes. 
  • Strain the garlic from the oil into a blender carafe. Add the lime, orange, and grapefruit juice, oregano, a pinch of kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Blend until smooth. Move the mixture to a bowl and then slowly whisk in the garlic oil until the mixture thickens slightly. 
  • Grill the flank steaks over direct heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the steaks from the grill and rest, loosely covered with foil for 5 minutes. Add the provolone slices to the still oily skillet – from the garlic – and cook for 4 to 5 minutes while you slice and toast the bread.
  • Slice the La Brea Bakery Take-and-Bake French Baguette in half lengthwise. Brush the bread with olive oil and grill over direct heat for 30 to 45 seconds, or until charred and crisp. Remove the cheese from the grill. 
  • Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain into very thin slices. 
  • Build the sandwich by piling spring mix onto the bottom piece of bread, layer on the steak slices, pouring on the mojo de ajo sauce. Drizzle more of the mojo sauce onto the top slice of bread. Move the hot cheese to top the steak and top with the top bread pieces. Slice the baguette into 4 to 6 pieces and serve.
