Cast Iron Turkey Pot Pie 🥘✨
Comfort food, elevated. Golden, flaky pastry capped over rich turkey, roasted vegetables, and a velvety herb-infused gravy—all baked to perfection in a cast iron skillet. This is the kind of hearty, honest cooking that brings everyone back to the table. Whether you’re using leftover turkey or starting from scratch, this dish delivers deep flavor, rustic charm, and that unmistakable cast-iron crisp. 🔥 Recipe by Chef Jonathan Collins
A masterclass in simple ingredients, slow craft, and unforgettable taste. #ChefJonathanCollins #CastIronCooking #TurkeyPotPie #ComfortFood #HomeCooking #FarmToTable #CastIronRecipes #FoodLovers #DinnerInspiration #RusticCooking

FIREARMS OWNERS CAN INVEST $750 MILLION INTO THE FIREARMS INDUSTRY When the Canadian government gun buyback begins, divest obsolete or unwanted firearms and reinvest the proceeds into Canadian-made firearms-transforming a misguided and ignorant policy into a mechanism that strengthens domestic firearms manufacturers and equips responsible, law abiding gun owners with newer, superior, Canadian firearms.

Participation in the Canadian liberal government gun confiscation program should be in opposition to your values and business model @thecoltfirearms What you compromise to keep or profit from in the short term will cost you in the long term.

🔥 Barbecued Brick Chicken by Chef Jonathan Collins There’s nothing quite like the sound of chicken hitting a hot grill — especially when it’s spatchcocked and barbecued under the weight of a brick. This rustic yet refined technique transforms an everyday bird into something unforgettable. By removing the backbone and flattening the chicken, we create maximum surface contact with the grill — locking in juices while delivering that irresistible smoky char. The brick? That’s where the magic happens. Wrapped in foil and set right on top, it ensures even cooking, incredible crispiness, and a gorgeous golden finish you won’t believe came off your backyard barbecue. 🔥 Crisp skin. Juicy meat. Deep smoky flavor. This is barbecue elevated. Stay tuned — full recipe and step-by-step video coming soon. #ChefJonathanCollins #BrickChicken #BBQSeason #SpatchcockChicken #GrillMaster #SummerEats #FromScratchWithLove

📍 Long Point Bay, Ontario 🔥 Open Flame. Fresh Catch. Pure Flavor. Pan-Roasted Bay Catch Provençal — a celebration of the water and the wild. Today’s lineup: Rock Bass, Perch, and Pickerel, all freshly caught right here on Long Point Bay. Cooked outdoors, kissed by wood fire, and finished Provençal style with vine-ripened tomatoes, garden herbs, garlic, and olives. Because when you cook where you catch, every bite tells the story. 👨‍🍳 #ChefJonathanCollins 🌿 #TheOutdoorsChef 🎣 #LongPointBay 🍽️ #BayCatchProvençal 🔥 #CookOutdoors #CatchAndCook #FreshFromTheBay #RockBass #Perch #Pickerel #OpenFireCooking #FarmAndForage

There’s something special about being Canadian it’s not just where I live. It’s a part of who I am. It’s the way snow drifts pile high overnight, the wind bites hard, and the cold tests you, and it’s the calm of a lake at sunrise in summer, and the quiet strength that comes from growing up in a country that values kindness, civility, and resilience. Canada is a place where people look out for one another, where we still believe in saying “sorry,” even if we’re not entirely sure what for. It’s where community matters, where we lend a hand without being asked, and where respect runs deep. I’m proud to be Canadian because here, we believe in fairness. We stand up for what’s right, not just for ourselves, but for our neighbours, and others too. Whether it’s opening our doors to those in need, protecting our wild spaces, or standing shoulder to shoulder in tough times—we don’t back down from doing the right thing. There’s a quiet confidence in being Canadian. We don’t always shout the loudest, but we show up. We care deeply. And we’re strong—not in spite of our humility, but because of it. That’s why I’m proud. Proud of our roots. Proud of our future. Proud to be Canadian.
