We're celebrating the Hawaiian cowboy
0:02
bringing some flavor from the island way
0:05
over to here. And you know where is it
0:06
at? In our cookbook, Faith, Family, and
0:16
I done took me some bacon, put over here
0:18
on the Blackstone, cooked it till I
0:20
would say it was exactly half done. A
0:23
softened block of cream cheese, some
