Football Bacon Beans

I made this recipe Sunday for the first games of football.  It was really cheap and fed a whole group of people with leftovers for a few days.  It’s the ultimate “Combine Everything and Put it on Low” recipe that frees you up to do other things while you are waiting for it to cook.

Sweet Apricot Chicken Wings

This sauce is awesome.  It does things to your tastebuds that is only legal in Vegas. It’s an Chinese style sweet/hot sauce that is perfect for chicken wings. You can boost up the heat with more Sriracha or Frank’s Red Hot. This will give you a good amount of marinade/glaze and will work for about 5 pounds of wings.

Sweet Southern Yams

Yams are a great side dish to add color and a candy-like sweetness. They’re something to whip up and allow to bake while you’re cooking a main dish. Definitely not healthy by any means, but the taste is worth racking up the calories for.

Low Carb Red-Pepper Sauce

This is a “fancy” sauce that pairs well with Fish and Chicken but can also be used as a dip. Depending on the price of heavy cream, you may want to make a double or quad order as this is really tasty and will last about 1~2 weeks in the fridge.

Hawaiian Pork Stir Fry

Here’s a healthy option for a Hawaiian Pork Stir Fry, The cornstarch helps to thicken the sauce a bit, but if you don’t have it you can use flour, you just won’t have the shiny-ness in the sauce that cornstarch gives.  If you don’t have flour then just the wine down to about 1/4 to keep it from being a runny sauce.  The recipe will also work with chicken, beef or tofu if you want to use this recipe more than once.

Instant Tiramisu

This recipe does include raw eggs so elderly, infants and pregnant ladies should prob steer clear of this, but if made and then eaten immediately, there’s not a huge chance of getting sick unless you are using old eggs.

French Onion Grillin’ Glaze

  • by

Here’s a great glaze to use on your next cook-out.  It’s definitely different than barbecue sauce and the usual sauces. The sweetness really comes out as it starts to char on the meat and the glaze begins to caramelize. Try it on chicken and fish for a great new taste that’s sure to please.

Sweet Teriyaki Marinade

  • by

This marinade is perfect for chicken and tougher cuts of meats, the alcohol really penetrates the meat and makes it so tender, that you can use the cheaper cuts of meat and after a day or so of marinating they taste just like the top cuts.  Just mix all the ingredients together and add to a large ziplock bag and allow to marinate 24-48 hours.
