INGREDIENTS
4 large bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1/3 cup Primal Kitchen Mango Jalapeno BBQ Sauce
1/2 tablespoon Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
Chopped cilantro, red onion, and bell pepper, to garnish

INSTRUCTIONS
Pat your chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Combine the avocado oil, salt, onion powder, garlic powder,
and black pepper in a bowl and toss the chicken in them. Place the chicken skin side up on a pan uncovered in
the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help the skin dry slightly.

Preheat one side of your grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grates to help prevent the chicken from sticking.
Once hot, place the chicken skin side down on the lit side of the grill and cover. After 3 minutes, carefully turn
the thighs 90 degrees to help make some nice grill marks. Grill for an additional 3 minutes. Be careful for any
flare ups due to the fat in the thighs.

Flip the chicken over and grill for an additional 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the unlit side of the grill and
cover. Grill for 5-10 minutes, then flip the chicken over. Continue to flip every 5 or so minutes until the chicken
reaches a minimum internal temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit (we like to put a meat thermometer with
a probe in the center of the thickest piece of meat to ensure proper temperature). When the chicken is nearly
cooked through, use a brush to brush some of the BBQ sauce on the chicken. Continue to brush the chicken
with sauce until the desired internal temperature is reached. Brush with more sauce and garnish with chopped
onion, bell peppers, and cilantro.

INGREDIENTS
3 boneless pork chops, about ¾” thick
1/2 tablespoons Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil or Extra Virgin Avocado Oil
½-1 teaspoons chipotle powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup Primal Kitchen Hawaiian BBQ Sauce

INSTRUCTIONS
Rub the pork chops in the avocado oil. Mix together the chipotle powder, salt and pepper and sprinkle the
mixture all over the pork chops. Let the pork chops rest for 15 minutes.

Preheat one side of your grill over medium heat. Grill the pork chops for 2 minutes, then turn them 90 degrees
for an additional 2 minutes to get nice grill marks. Flip the pork chops over and repeat. Move the pork chops
over to the unlit side of the grill and shut the lid. Grill until the pork reaches an internal temperature of
145 degrees Fahrenheit. If you have a meat thermometer with a probe, this is a great time to use it so you can
keep the lid shut as the meat cooks. If you are using thicker cut pork chops, the cook time will be a little longer.

When the pork is close to reaching the goal temperature, brush a small amount of the Primal Kitchen Hawaiian
BBQ Sauce on top. When the pork comes off the grill, brush with the remaining sauce.

1/2 cup Primal Kitchen No Soy Island Teriyaki Sauce
1 ½ tablespoons Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil

2 tablespoons of it. Reserve the remaining sauce for later. Allow the shrimp to marinate in the fridge for
15-30 minutes.

Preheat your grill over medium heat and oil the grates to prevent sticking. Thread the shrimp and veggies on

4 slices bacon
1 tablespoon Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil

1 red bell pepper, sliced into ¼-inch strips
1 green bell pepper, sliced into ¼-inch strips
Salt and pepper to taste
4 gluten-free buns
Primal Kitchen Unsweetened Ketchup
Primal Kitchen Spicy Brown Mustard

INSTRUCTIONS
Soak 8 toothpicks in water for about 10 minutes. Wrap 1 slice of bacon around each hot dog. Use toothpicks to
secure the bacon slices to the hot dogs.

If using a gas grill: Get the grill medium hot on one side, and keep the other half unheated. Place the hot dogs
over the warm side of the grill, turning about every 40 seconds or so until you hit every side. The bacon should
crisp and the hot dog should start expanding, but not be sputtering, when the hot dogs are ready. When this
happens, move the hot dogs to the unheated side of the grill. Place the split bun, split side down, on the hot
part of the grill. Allow to warm for 40-60
seconds before removing.

If using a charcoal grill: Heat the coals and allow them to burn off so they’re ashen. Bank to coals to one side
of the grill. Place the hot dogs over the warm coals, turning about every 40 seconds or so until you hit every
side. The bacon should crisp and the hot dog should start expanding, but not be sputtering, when the hot dogs
are ready. When this happens, move the hot dogs to the side of the grill without coals underneath. Place the
split bun, split side down, on the hot part of the grill. Allow to warm for 40-60 seconds before removing.
Remove the hot dogs and buns from the grill and tent with aluminum foil or a kitchen towel to keep warm.

In a large cast-iron skillet over medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon avocado oil. Add onions and peppers and
cook, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly caramelized, about 17-20 minutes. Add salt and pepper and
stir. Remove peppers and onions from heat.

To assemble the hot dogs: Add 1 bacon-wrapped hot dog to each bun. Top with sauteed peppers and onions.
Add ketchup and mustard, as well as mayonnaise, if desired.

For the ribs: ¼ cup raw cashews, soaked, drained, and roughly chopped
2 slabs pork spare ribs 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1 ½ cups Primal Kitchen No Soy Teriyaki ¼ cup cilantro, chopped 1 scallion, sliced
Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray

For the marinade:


2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
½ cup coconut aminos
3 tablespoons raw honey, optional
1 tablespoon chili sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon fish sauce

INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by getting a butter knife under it, and then using a paper towel to grab
hold and pull the membrane away. Place ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or large glass
container with a lid.

In a bowl or pyrex cup, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Pour marinade over the ribs. Seal tightly and then slosh the
marinade around in the bag or container to ensure both rib slabs are equally coated.

Place ribs in the refrigerator and marinate for at least one hour—ideally, four hours total.
When you’re ready to cook the ribs, remove them from the refrigerator and place them on a baking sheet.

Pour the marinade, plus ½ cup of water, into an InstantPot or saucepan on the stove.

If using the InstantPot: Cook on manual high for 30 minutes. Release valve and let pressure release for 10
minutes.

If using the stove: Bring marinade to a rolling boil over high heat (to ensure you kill any bacteria). Once the marinade has
boiled, reduce the heat to medium-low to low and allow it to simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by
about half.

In the meantime, heat the grill. Brush Primal Kitchen No Soy Teriyaki on both sides of the ribs.

If using a charcoal grill: Lightly spray the grill rack with Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray. Transfer ribs to an area of rack
with few coals underneath, and cook, covered with lid, basting generously with Teriyaki Sauce.

If using a gas grill: Lightly spray grill rack with Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray. Transfer ribs to rack above the shut-off
burner. Grill, covered with lid, basting generously with Teriyaki Sauce and turning over and
rotating ribs every 10 minutes (keep ribs over shut-off burner), until ribs are tender and browned, 30 to 40
minutes total.

Place ribs onto a cutting board and spoon reduced marinade on top. Sprinkle chopped cashews, seeds,
cilantro and scallions on top. Allow to stand for 5–10 minutes before cutting into ribs. Serve with more sauce on the side.
