Tasty Tuesday

Have you ever been in this scenerio? It's Thursday night, one day away from payday, no money left in your grocery budget and your family is hungry. You look in the fridge and you find some chicken and a bottle of italian dressing. Then, looking in your pantry, you find a package of hot dog buns (and no hotdogs in the house). Well, here is a yummy idea for you. Take the chicken out, pour the dressing over it. Marinade for about 30 minutes. Grill chicken. In the meantime, take the buns out, split them in half. Spread butter on each half then sprinkle with some garlic powder. Then pop them into the oven to broil for a few minutes. And, here is what you get:






Yummy grilled chicken



and "bread"sticks

Enjoy!!

Tasty Tuesday

I love when the weather starts to get warmer and I can take my Dutch Oven out of hibernation. So, in honor of my Dutch Oven, here is a very tasty (and fairly easy) recipe.

Beef Barbecue Sandwich

2lbs. beef roast
1 bottle liquid smoke
1 can cola soda or 1 1/2 c beef broth
1 to 2 bottles barbecue sauce
swiss or cheddar cheese slices
sauteed onions
toasted onion rolls or hoagie buns

Marinate roast in liquid smoke overnight. Place roast in a oiled Dutch oven and pur the soda over the top. Cover and cook with 16-20 coals (400 deg), with a 1 (bottom)-to-3 (top) ratio, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat separates easily. Add more moisture if needed, and rotate the oven and lid while cooking. Using a fork, shred the meat, then stir in the barbecue sauce and heat through. Serve on buns with cheese and onions. Yummy!!!
