Mardi Gras is crazy. Blame it on the King Cakes. Haydel Bakery makes these traditional Mardi Gras confections from an old Danish recipe that causes men to feel immune to the effects of booze and makes women eager to show off their rack.

We’ll presume you’ve already got skills with the grill and we’re gonna take a leap and assume you’ve had your meat rubbed before. Maybe even rubbed your own.
