Rockamole Guacamole

What’ll you bet that what ZZ Top’s music does for your ears, Billy Gibbons’ Rockamole Guacamole will do for your taste buds?

Cooked up with the help with fellow bearded recording artist, country rocker Tim Montana, Billy provided this recipe for the outdoors loving readers of Hook and Barrel magazine.  It’s a recipe intended, as Billy explained, “for when you’re outside of the home or a fully stocked kitchen.  Something you can do out of a backpack.”

Happily, most of the ingredients are within easy reach at your local grocery store…though tracking down their signature hot sauce “Beez & Teez Whisker Bomb” may require a little familiarity with the internet.

Here’s what you’ll need:

4 ripe avocados

1 fresh lime, juiced

½ bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped 

2 jalapeños, finely diced (with seeds intact for extra heat)

½ yellow onion, diced

2 Tbsp Beez & Teez Whisker Bomb (use Beez & Teez “Have Mercy” for a hotter, spicier guac)

1 Tbsp garlic powder

1 tsp cumin

salt and black or white pepper (to taste)

Mash the avocados in a bowl and mix with the other ingredients.  The feel free to take Billy’s advice on additional ways to doctor your guac.

“Diced green or red jalapeños and diced onion may be added for extra zing if so desired.  Add a dash of smoked paprika, if desired, to complete the presentation. Twist a few fresh cilantro leaves across the top for a final appealing garnish.

“Now pinch a crisp tortilla chip, and scrape a heap of some groovy green goodness!”
