Grossest food at the Calgary Stampede

July 15, 2010 By: bozobouffe Category: Uncategorized

While most people know the Calgary Stampede for its controversial chuck-wagon races, well-dressed cowboys or all-night parties, others know it for something far less appealing: some of the strangest and grossest fun food available anywhere. It’s no secret that every Stampede offers new one-of-a-kind snack creations on the grounds which disappear from Calgary’s culinary landscape when the gates close for another summer. And after a night of trying most of them, I can tell you that’s probably a good thing.

Recipe: Tandoori Chicken

July 15, 2010 By: bozobouffe Category: Uncategorized

Tandoori chicken gets its name from the bell-shaped tandoor clay oven which is also used to make naan, or Indian flatbread. Skinless legs and thighs are marinated in a tenderizing mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and spices and the meat is slashed to the bone in several places helping the marinade penetrate and the chicken cook more quickly. The chicken gets its characteristic red hue from either lots of fiery chile or the addition of red food dye. We’re not that big on food dyes here, so we’ve skipped it, but if you must have your chicken bright red, feel free to add a bit of red food dye to the marinade. Now, you don’t need a tandoor oven to make tandoori chicken (thank goodness). You can cook it over a grill (charcoal preferred) or just in an oven with a broiler.
