Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1 1/2 teaspoons packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup raw slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
6 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced into ribbons
2 teaspoons packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons honey
4 firm-ripe peaches,

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • For the yogurt whipped cream: Vigorously whisk the yogurt, heavy cream, vanilla bean paste, brown sugar and lemon zest together in a medium bowl until the mixture thickens and can hold its shape. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For the oat crunch: Melt the butter in a medium ovenproof skillet directly on the grill. Stir in the oats, almonds and salt until coated. Stirring occasionally, cook the oats and almonds until just beginning to turn golden, about 5 minutes. Add the honey and brown sugar to the pan and stir until the sugar melts. Continue stirring and tossing for another 2 minutes until everything is well coated. Transfer the oat mixture to a baking sheet to cool, about 5 minutes. Break up the crunch into bite-size pieces. Toss the basil ribbons with the oat crunch until evenly distributed.
  • For the peaches: Cut each peach in half and remove the pit. Whisk the brown sugar, lemon juice and honey together in a large bowl. Add the peaches and gently toss until evenly coated.
  • Grill the peaches cut-side down over medium-high until grill marks develop and some of the sugars begin to caramelize, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the peaches and grill until the skin is slightly charred, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peaches from the grill.
  • Divide the grilled peaches evenly among 4 bowls. Dollop a generous amount of the yogurt whipped cream on top and sprinkle with a handful of the oat crunch. Serve immediately.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 (3 to 4-pound) chickens, halved
Jack's Old South Meat Marinade, recipe follows
1 cup apple juice
Jack's Old South BBQ Rub, recipe follows
Jack's Old South Competition Vinegar Sauce, see recipe
2 quarts apple juice
1 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup orange juice
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons hot sauce
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup salt
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup sweet paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
3 tablespoons black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil

Steps:

  • Combine the chicken and marinade in a large non-reactive pan. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 6.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and coat generously with some of the rub. Arrange the chicken, skin side-up, in a baking pan and pour the apple juice in the bottom. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and roast for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Uncover the chicken and continue roasting, basting with the sauce occasionally, until the skin is golden.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Whisk until the sugar and salt dissolve. Let cool.
  • Combine all ingredients and mix well.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all your ingredients and equipment. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you have everything you need.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final product. Use fresh, high-quality ingredients whenever possible.
  • Follow the Recipe Carefully: Baking is a science, and it's important to follow the recipe carefully. If you substitute ingredients or change the measurements, you may not get the desired results.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can develop the gluten in the flour, which can make the babka tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the Dough Rise Properly: The dough needs to rise twice before it's baked. Make sure to give it enough time to rise so that it doubles in size.
  • Bake the Babka at the Right Temperature: The oven temperature is critical for baking babka. Make sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking.
  • Cool the Babka Completely Before Slicing: Allow the babka to cool completely before slicing it. This will help prevent the babka from crumbling.

Jack's Babka Crunch is a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, dessert, or as a snack. With its sweet and cinnamony filling and crunchy streusel topping, it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give Jack's Babka Crunch a try!
