Episode 124: Beef Stu in Sourdough Bread Bowl

admin — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 21:15:16 +0000

It really doesn't get much easier than this. I take the left overs from Episode 120 (Grandma's Pot Roast) and spice it up to make a delicious and warming beef stu in Sourdough Bread Bowl. It's an awesome way to disguise the fact that you're only serving left overs!

Recipe: BBQ Ribs and Crockpot Beans

admin — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 19:33:49 +0000

Last recipe from my photo shoot. These are really quick and easy ribs with my own "doctored up" BBQ sauce and a 5 bean Crockpot recipe which my daughter absolutely loves!

BBQ Ribs:

Use a large pot big enough to but the ribs in. Fill about 1/2 way with water and bring to a boil. Add about 1 1/2 -2 cups of vinegar to the boiling water. Then carefully place the ribs in the boiling water.

Boil ribs for about 1/2 hour. Then remove and dry. Season the ribs with salt and pepper and any barbecue spices you want.

Cook the ribs on the grill, basting with BBQ sauce.

You can also cook the ribs in the oven at 250° F for about 2 hours if you don't want to put them on the grill.

Doctored BBQ Sauce

You'll need

1 bottle of BBQ sauce (what ever you want)
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1 tbsp of dijon mustard
Tobasco sauce (optional)

Start with any inexpensive BBQ sauce you can get. Pour the entire bottle sauce into a sauce pan. Add the brown sugar, mustard and a touch of Tobasco sauce (optional). Mix thoroughly and bring to a simmer.

Crockpot Beans

You'll need

1 can butter beans
1 can pork and beans (any brand)
1 can kidney beans
1 can of garbanzo beans
1 can chili beans
3/4 cup brown sugar
tbsp of yellow mustard
1 packet of spaghetti seasonings
1 minced onion
16 oz of Kielbasa Sausage sliced

Combine all the ingredients into a crockpot and cook on low for about 2 hours and you're done.
Doesn't get easier than that!

Recipe: Lamb Shoulder Chops

admin — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 18:59:44 +0000

Another recipe from the photoshoot! This is a really easy lamb chop recipe

You'll need:

Lamb Shoulder Chop
1 tbsp of Dijon Mustard
1 tbsp of Balsamic Vinegar
2 cloves of Garlic Minced
1/4 tsp of pepper
1/4 cup of Olive Oil
4 tsp fresh Basil (Slivered)

Combine the mustard, vinegar, garlic, pepper, olive oil and basil into a Ziplock bag and mix throughly. This will create the marinade.

Wash you lamb chops and let them dry before putting into the ziplock bag with the marinade. Place in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours (overnight would be best).

Cook on a grill for about about 5-8 minutes on each side.

Recipe: Lemon Rosemary Roasted Chicken

Sue — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 18:20:06 +0000

While putting together some photos for my press release, I put together a few dishes - here is the recipe for a beautiful yet easy Rosemary Lemon Roasted Chicken:

You'll need:

1 Chicken
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Fresh Rosemary
3 Lemons
Salt and Pepper

Cut 1 lemon in half and place inside the chicken along with some rosemary. Rub about 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil onto the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Slice up one lemon and place on the outside along with some more rosemary. Place the chicken with lemon and rosemary into a large Ziplock bag and allow it to marinade for at least 2 hours (overnight is best).

Take out of Ziplock bag and place in a baking dish leaving the lemon and rosemary inside the chicken. Slice up the final lemon and place the slices on the chicken.

Roast the chicken in an oven preheated at 350° F for about 1 hour or until the juices of the chicken run clear. If you're using a meat thermometer, the chicken's internal temperature should reach 165°.

Garnish with fresh lemon and rosemary.
