About Us

This journey of cooking started years ago in a kitchen with my grandfather.  My grandfather was cooking some fried chicken and I wanted to know how to cook it just like he did because it tasted so good! So without hesitation my grandfather pulled me to the stove and begin to show me step by step on how to deep fry chicken.  I can remember the simplest explanation of knowing when the chicken was cooked.  He said, "when there is very little bubbles in the grease, you know its done". From that moment on I was hooked!

So years later I get to share with you what makes me smile and that is being able to share with you my family some of my delicious recipes! I enjoy eating and cooking a wide variety of foods. So if you enjoy cooking and eating then take a tour on this site and try some of these recipes for yourself! If you really enjoy them spread the word and share them with your family and friends and tell them Cooking with Manual Focus got you in the game!
