re: Best off the shelf BBQ sauces

Posted by SpotCheckBilly on 4/18/24 at 10:05 pm
I like several sauces. I grew up on a mustard/vinegar-based, non-sweet sauce and Foy's is pretty close to that. [img]https://foysbbq.com/cdn/shop/products/f-hot-32_110x110.jpg[/img] I also like sweet heat type sauces at times This one is also good for basting a spiral-sliced ham. [img]https...

[quote]I do basically what your method is, but one surprising ingredient I add based on an old America's Test Kitchen recipe for a rustic Italian dish as they described it - turnip roots. They add a spicy flavor that is fantastic. [/quote] Turnips are very underrated. I've started using them in a...

I've made a stew like that before, and yeah, the richness is something wonderful. I've also taken it in a more Caribbean direction with some hot peppers and coconut milk added. A lady from Trinidad gave me some pointers. Everybody needs a little tail sometime....

Oxtail Osso Buco

Posted by SpotCheckBilly on 4/18/24 at 10:32 am
I had a tail in the freezer and needed to make room for other stuff, so I found this recipe online. I cooked it inside, simmering it on the stove for 2.5 hours, then letting it cool overnight to be served over cheesy grits the following day. I'm sure it would be good with a more traditional beef sha...

[quote]This is the oxymoronic truth. I know of multiple people who live in Auburn who haven’t been because it’s too crowded and they close when they run out.

There was a time when Red Lobster was a good place to go for seafood (unless you were near the coast). Many years ago, they had numerous fish choices and good menu items. But that was many years ago. It's been over 25 years since I've been in one and by then it was more like a bigger Captain Ds with...
