Paleo-Playoff Party? Charcoal Grilled Hickory Smoked Tri Tip with Sagmorillio
Recipe: BBQ Pork Tenderloin Lettuce Wraps with Apple-Jalepano Compote
What to do with left over BBQ pork tenderloin? In a previous life, we would slice it, reheat it, and serve it with a few salsas, some pineapple and warm tortillas as Mock Tacos al Pastor. We took inspiration from the Al Pastor style, and from lettuce wrapped Moo-Shu pork to create Pork Tenderloin... »
Paleo-Philippino Cooking: Welcome Chicken Adobo
Like most oriental cuisines, Philippino cooking poses a paleo-challenge. The cuisine embraces rice, rice noodles and egg noodles as its caloric mainstay. However, there are a few green shoots for the paleogastronomer. No less then Anthony Bourdain proclaims Lechon, a pig roasted over a hand turned rotisserie, the best pig in the world. Sinigang, the national... »

Back to the Hunter-Gatherer Life in Toronto
After blowing our brains out in Northern California, it was welcome relief to come back home, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and enjoy home-cooked paleo-friendly dinners. Our first instinct, after consuming so many fine, and expensive dinners, was to prepare something simple, local and comforting. Our idea? Roast chicken paired with locally foraged sauteed fiddleheads. This... »
Cabbage and Poached Egg Soup
Adapted from the Moss Room, this soup is a time-pressed, paleogastronomers dream come true. The original was somewhat bland, so we modded it out with some Asian influences. Vegetable stock recipe can be found here »
Paleolithic Expansion: On the Road to San Francisco
On the surface, it would seem that the healthy northern Califoria lifestyle, respect for local ingredients and a reputation as a great food destination would make San Francisco is a welcome home to the travelling paleogastronomer.
