MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Ground Bacon Burger
Categories: Pork, Vegetables, Herbs, Breads
Yield: 4 Burgers

2 lb Uncooked bacon
1/2 lb Bacon; cooked, fine chopped
2 tb Your favourite BBQ dry rub
2 c Shredded iceberg lettuce
2 lg Tomatoes; sliced
BBQ sauce; optional
4 Kaiser rolls; split, lightly
- toasted

ADDITIONAL TOOLS: Stand mixer w/meat grinder attachment
or food processor

Prepare grill for medium-high heat cooking,
approximately 400ºF/205ºC.

Rough chop the uncooked bacon and place in the freezer
for approximately 15 minutes until it begins to firm but
hasn't frozen through. Once partially frozen, feed it
through the grinder attachment of a stand mixer or place
in a food processor and roughly chop.

Once the bacon has been properly ground, gently mix in
the chopped cooked bacon then form into 4 burger
patties. Season patties lightly on both sides with BBQ
dry rub seasoning.

Place patties on the grill and cook until they reach a
minimum internal temperature of 160ºF/71ºC. Remove the
burger patties from the grill. Assemble burgers by
spreading BBQ sauce or Mayonnaise on the buns, place
patty on the bottom bun, followed by shredded iceberg
lettuce, and 2-3 slices of tomatoes. Add the top bun
and serve immediately.

UDD NOTE: A nice slice of Cheddar or Colby cheese is a
nice touch. Pepper jack, too.

I'd go for the shrimp tacos in a heart beat. (G) A new to us fast food place opened up in town this past week; we tried it for lunch today.
Cook Out's main claim to fame is that they have 40 flavors of milk
shakes but otherwise it's a poor excuse of a combination of Taco Bell, Chick-Fil-A and McDonald's. I had a grilled chicken breast sandwich

Chris is a pretty good cook. Which I can't blame on his dad = who can barely make his own breakfast without much weeping, wailing and
gnasing of teeth.

Steve is a pretty good cook too. Right now he's making up some sauerbraten; I was going to do it yesterday but ot hit by a bug in the
wee small hours. The worst of it is past but I just don't feel like cooking. The sauerbraten will be cooked, but then put in the fridge
until I feel better. (Steve had the bug earlier this week, has gotten
over it faster.)

I was a better cook than my wife. I think the Food Network show "How to
Boil Water" was written with her in mind.

You'll know better next time. If you have a Hardee's/Carl's Junior
near you I can recommend their hand-breaded chicken sandwich. Or, of course, the King of Chicken sandwiches - Popeyes.

Closest Hardee's is probably down in Raleigh now. Had one in town but
it closed without warning several years ago. Building has stood there, still signage on it. Good location but so far, nobody has done anything with it yet.

Who knows why stuff like that happens. When Carl's Jr bought Hardee's
they changed the signage on all of the Herdee's around here ... but
soon changed it back - even though the menus are the same.

I was idling away some time yesterday and reading one of the

Probably about the going rate these days. It's going to be a vicous cycle--can't afford to go out to eat which means restarants will close
and we won't have any place to go, etc--until this bird flu thing gets resolved and we have enough chickens to lay eggs for consumption as
well as their regeneration. The price of eggs will still remain high because once a level is reached, it usually isn't reduced very far.

That and how chicken farms mysteriously catch on fire and explode...

That will take some getting used to/toughening up in that area. Did you get any sort of breaking in schedule or just "wear as tolerated" type instructions?

Title: Chicken Thighs with Aromatic Spices
Categories: Mexican, Ceideburg, Chicken
Yield: 4 Servings

Stephen Ceideburg
2 1/2 lb Chicken thighs, skinned
1/2 ts Coarsely ground black
-peppercorns
1/2 ts Cumin seeds
1/2 ts Dried oregano
2 Bay leaves
Salt
6 Cloves garlic, halved
1 1/2 tb Mixed-Spice Paste (recipe
-follows)
1 tb All-purpose white flour
1 md Onion, thinly sliced
4 Long banana peppers, cut
-into long strips
1 tb Vegetable or olive oil
2 tb Cider vinegar or to taste

Bring 7 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan, add chick- en (and a
little more water to cover if needed). Skim off any grayish foam that
rises during the first few minutes of simmering. Add black pepper,
cumin, oregano, bay leaves, 1 tsp. salt and garlic. Partially cover
and simmer gently for 20 to 25 minutes, until the juices run clear
when the thighs are pierced with a knife (boned thighs will cook in
15 to 20 minutes). Remove from the heat and cool the chicken in the
cooking liquid, if time permits. With a slotted spoon, remove thighs
from the broth and set them on a plate. Strain broth, skim fat and
set aside 2 1/2 cups in the refrigerator.

Rub 1 Tbsp. Mixed Spice Paste over the side of the chicken that has
been skinned and let it stand 1 hour uncovered in the refrigerator.
Lightly dust the spice covered side of the chicken with flour,
patting gently to evenly distribute it over the surface and remove
any excess.

Rinse onions, drain thoroughly and set aside with chilies. Set a large
nonstick skillet over medium heat, add oil, and when it is hot, add
chicken, spice-side down, and fry until crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and keep warm in a 200 degree F. oven.

Return the pan to the heat and add onions and chilies. Cook over
medium for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions
soften. Add vinegar, reserved broth and remaining 1/2 Tbsp. spice
paste, stirring to dissolve the paste. Simmer for several minutes to
blend the flavors. Taste for salt and vinegar. Place 2 thighs in each
of 4 bowls. Top with a portion of the onion mixture and the broth.

Hi Dave,

If I do a fast and easy sauce, I'll use ground beef, tomato paste,
tomato sauce, water and herbs/spices. For really fast sauce, I'll omit
the tomato paste, use the sauce and a can of diced tomatoes. Don't do
that very often but it's a "5 o'clock and need something for supper and have to be out the door by 6:30 or so" last resort.

I've been known to add a can of Red Gold diced tomatoes (sometimes
w/green chilies) and an extra ts of "Italian seasoning" when
tarting-up the ready made sauce.

Whatever works. I have Italian seasoning on hand but for making sauce, I

I love griled chicken but the only place in town that has them now id Bojangles and it's $10 for a grilled chicken sandwich, Borounds, and a large drink. That's really expensive.

My new dentures work but I need to have the bottom denture adjusted as
it is rubbing on the small tissue that holds your lower lip to your
jaw. It hurtas badly after a day of wearing dentures.

As I told you in e-mail, it's an easy fix. If your living accomodationn
has a dentist/lab on site (as my brother remihnded me) it's a "walk-in
fix it on the spot" thing. Then you'll be able to eat this:

A George Foreman grill is great for single people cooking for one (or

Title: Herb Roasted Chicken Thighs w/Potatoes
Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Vegetables, Potatoes
Yield: 5 Servings

MMMMM------------------------VINAIGRETTE-----------------------------
2 tb Red wine vinegar
1 tb Olive oil
1 ts (to 2 ts) Dijon mustard; to
- taste
1 ts Dried herbes de provence or
- Italian seasoning or dry
- thyme
+=OR=+
1 tb Fresh chopped herbs such as
- thyme or tarragon
1/2 ts Kosher salt
1/2 ts Ground black pepper

MMMMM--------------------------CHICKEN-------------------------------
2 lb Chicken thighs; bone in,
- skin-on, trimmed of excess
- fat
1 ts Kosher salt
1 ts Olive oil
3 lg Yukon gold potatoes; peeled,
- sliced 1/8" thick or less,
- about 1 1/2 lb
1 c Sliced, peeled shallots or
- sub thin sliced onion that
- has soaked in water for 10
- minutes
4 cl Garlic; peeled, crushed
Several whole sprigs fresh
- tarragon or thyme (opt)
More salt & pepper

Set oven @ 375ºF/190ºC.

Sprinkle all sides of chicken thighs with kosher salt
and set aside.

In a small bowl whisk together the red wine vinegar,
olive oil, Dijon mustard, herbes de provence, 1/2
teaspoon Kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black
pepper.

Spread a teaspoon of olive oil over the bottom of a
large (9" X 13") casserole dish. Cover the bottom of the
dish with the thinly sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper. Distribute the sliced shallots over the
potatoes, and sprinkle again with a little salt and
pepper.

Place the chicken thighs, skin-side up, on top of the
shallots. Wedge the garlic cloves between pieces of
chicken. If you have fresh herbs such as tarragon or
thyme, you can wedge them in along the border, between
the chicken pieces and the dish. Whisk the vinaigrette
again and pour it over the chicken, spreading it with
your fingers to make sure the chicken is well coated.

Bake uncovered in a 375øF/190øC oven for 50 minutes, or
until the thighs are well browned and cooked through.
Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before
serving.

* Red potatoes work well here as I suspect the purple
Peruvian potatoes would, as well. Just so long as it's
a waxy potato rather than a mealy one. - UDD

Yield: Serves 4 to 6.

Thanks, now I know what to look for, for our herb bed.

Chris is a pretty good cook. Which I can't blame on his dad = who can barely make his own breakfast without much weeping, wailing and
gnasing of teeth.

Steve is a pretty good cook too. Right now he's making up some sauerbraten; I was going to do it yesterday but ot hit by a bug in the
wee small hours. The worst of it is past but I just don't feel like cooking. The sauerbraten will be cooked, but then put in the fridge
until I feel better. (Steve had the bug earlier this week, has gotten
over it faster.)

I was a better cook than my wife. I think the Food Network show "How
to Boil Water" was written with her in mind.

We are both pretty good cooks. Steve's mom made sure he knew the basics before leaving home. Time, travel, exposure to the echo here, and some Food network have made us both better as well as expanding our culinary horizons.

Funny how that works. When I managed the satellite shop we had a boob
tube going all the time. I watched a lot of Food Network and the shows
I liked best were the real cooking shows - like 2 Fat Ladies, or David Rosengarten.

Alton Brown was one of my all time Food Network favorites. We first got
it in HI, enjoyed watching "Iron Chef" in the original Japanes, without subtitles.

Alton is/was pretty good. I could not stand that smarta** Bobby Flay
nor his West Coast counterpart Guy Fieri.

Emeril was the only "showman chef" that I paid much attention to as he taught techniques as well as described ot gushed over it. Jerks like
that creepy, spiky hair Fieri duds ..... well, this is a family echo
so I'll be quiet now. Bv)=

Oh, I see I've mentioned his already. Bv)=

I half watched Emeril on nights Steve had school and I had no outside committments. Ususally had a hand sewing project on my lap that got
more attention.

I was idling away some time yesterday and reading one of the
ubiquitous "Best of" list6s ... this one for fast-food burgers.
Hardee's finished ahead of sister chain Carl's Jr. but the winner was Wendy's. I like Dave's Single. But I druther have a Baconator. Bv)=

I'd rather go for a chicken something or other than a burger most of
the time.

There was a "Best of" on chicken, too. Popeyes, of course, won but to
my surprise Chick Filly was mid-pack, behind Kanes, Shake Shack, and,
of course, Popeye's. KFC, McD's and White Castle brought up the rear.

Still, when I pass by the local Chick Fil A the dual drive-thru lanes
wrap around the building and back out into the street for half a
block. No way I'd wait that long for *anyone's* chicken sandwich.

It's just That popular! Good to see they're expanding out of the Deep South, glad that they still remain closed on Sunday.

They've been out for some time. This is their second go in my town. And
I've tried their product more than several times. Still ain;t impressed.

More likely to park, go in, get my grub and be on my way before the
third car on-line has placed its order. Bv)=

That's what we have to do, we've a high top on the back of our truck,
plus radio antennas. Also, when we're towing, no way can we take the camper thru a drive thru. We usually have to find a parking spot off premisis when towing to have room to park the rig.

Well, yeah, that's special circumstances. I';m referring to just a plain ol' sedan. Rather than wait forever in a line. I stir my stumps and go inside.
In in & out before three peoplem have been served at the drive up..

- choice

CHICKEN Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add

Use a paper towel to blot away excess moisture from the
chicken breast.

Sprinkle the spice mixture on both sides of the chicken.

Place the chicken into the hot skillet, and cook for 4
to 6 minutes on each side. You can use a meat
thermometer to make sure the chicken has fully cooked to
an internal temperature of 165°F.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and allow the meat
to rest while you make the rest of the salad.

SALAD: Wash and dry the lettuce and spinach, and divide
the greens between two bowls.

To each bowl add 2 tablespoons of dried cranberries, 1/2
of the red apple, 1/2 of the green apple, 1 tablespoon
chopped pecans, and 1/4 cup chopped blue cheese.

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Divide the meat evenly between the two bowls

Top the salad with the dressing of your choice.

I love griled chicken but the only place in town that has them now id Bojangles and it's $10 for a grilled chicken sandwich, Borounds, and a large drink. That's really expensive.

Probably about the going rate these days. It's going to be a vicous cycle--can't afford to go out to eat which means restarants will close
and we won't have any place to go, etc--until this bird flu thing gets
resolved and we have enough chickens to lay eggs for consumption as well
as their regeneration. The price of eggs will still remain high because
once a level is reached, it usually isn't reduced very far.

My new dentures work but I need to have the bottom denture adjusted as
it is rubbing on the small tissue that holds your lower lip to your

hurtas badly after a day of wearing dentures.

That will take some getting used to/toughening up in that area. Did you
get any sort of breaking in schedule or just "wear as tolerated" type instructions?

So, off I went to express care where they summoned an ambulance and
sent me to the emergency room. Then they kept me overnight and did beaucoup tests on my today. I'm back home with an oxygen concentrator
and a diagnosis of chongestive heart failure, Really made my whole
day.

I'm sorry to hear that. My birth father had congestive heart failure
20+ years ago. He changed his diet and started exercising more. He's still doing okay these days. As for the oxygen levels, my medical team panics if mine drops below 90%. I do have a pulse oximeter at home I
can use if I suspect anything. My levels fluctuate between 94-98%. Thankfully I've not had any issues the last year or so.

I haven't smoked for 30 nyears. But the lungs aren't very "self-repairihng"
And 45 years of 2 packs per day Camel straights did a lot to screw them up.

I'm not an "out-and-0about" guy so much anyomre so being tethered to the concentrator is not onerous. And, I've found that it lets me aleep better
(and longer) My pulmonologit says that as long as we con nmaintqain between
88 - 92 (or higher) on the oximeter it's golden. I had been dipping into
the high 50s.

Only bad thing is I tripped over my tail (O2 line) and when both my
brother and my roomie couldn't get me up they call 9-1-1 who came, got
me vertical, then into a chair with a choice. Promise to go to Express
Care and get bandaged poroperly in the morning or they would throw me
in their bus and take me to the E.R.

I took the first option. Now all I gotta do is heal up. Too baD I can't
blame booze - but I've not had a drop in over 10 years.

Hi Sean,

OUCH! You would think they would give you a break in schedule after
being so long without teeth. Guess they figure you know what you can tolerate and will go accordingly. I had a cleaning yesterday; all looks good.

Going to make an appointment next week to get the lower denture
adjusted as it is too painful to wear right now. That should be fixed pretty easily with a little grinding and cutting on the denture.

Hopefully you won't have to wait very long for it. Enjoying biting into
food otherwise?

Title: Braised Chicken with Bacon (Clay Pot)
Categories: Ceideburg, Chicken
Yield: 4 Servings

5 lb Chicken
4 Strips bacon
1 Onion, finely chopped
1 Clove garlic, finely chopped
1 c Chicken broth
1/2 ts Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 Tb. cornstarch dissolved in
2 Tb. cold water
2 Tb. finely chopped parsley
-or chives

Last weekend I finally managed to find good romertopf. A big one++
big enough for a small turkey! And am I glad. This is a neat way to
cook. I fixed the following recipe and it came out great. I fudged
it a bit++added a couple of quartered taters, three cut up carrots
and a couple of cut up celery stalks. Everything came out cooked to
perfection.

After getting it, I went to the bookshelf and rummaged around for
possible recipes and came across a book I'd forgotten I even had.
These recipes are from it. This recipe is the only one I've actually
fixed, but if the rest are as good, I'll be impressed. I had
expected the chicken to have a soft, steamed skin, but the parts that
were above the liquid were nicely browned.

Here are some chicken ones, one for osso bucco and one for a New
England boiled dinner that looks outrageous.

In the book, Chalmers says that nearly any recipe can be adapted to
the clay pot cookers by adding a hundred degrees to the listed
temperature and adding half an hour to the cooking time.

Soak the clay pot in cold water for 10 minutes. Truss the chicken
securely and sit it in the pot, breast side up. Cut the bacon into
small pieces and fry until crisp. Drain the bacon and scatter it
over the chicken breast. Add the onion, garlic, chicken broth, salt
and pepper.

Cover the pot and place it in a cold oven. Adjust the heat to 450F
and cook for 1 1/2 hours.

Drain the juices into a small saucepan. Bring to boiling point and
stir in the cornstarch dissolved in cold water. Add the chives or
parsley to the sauce and pour it over the chicken. The chicken will
be so utterly tender you will not have any difficulty carving it
right out of the pot. Serve with rice or noodles and a tomato salad.

Serves 4 and 2 children

I thought you'd like that. I like marinaded meats; those are easier
for me to eat.

OK, the marinade is based on one from a restaurant in Oneonta, NY.
Chicken marinaded in this, then grilled over charcoal is their
specialty. When my dad was in a nursing home in Oneonta, we would visit
him and try to get a meal at the restaurant. In 2015 Nancy hosted a
Cooking echo get together at her cabin on Boyd Pond in the Adirondacks;
we bought a bottle of the marinade and pitted it against the home made
knock off. The home made won, hands down. (G)

My mom used to, during the summer, get chicken marinading in open pans,
early in the day. Dad would grill it for supper, occaisionally brushing
more marinade on it, then bring it in, in the pans that still had
marinade in them. The marinade would then be poured into a jar, put into
the fridge and reused, weekly, replenishing as needed, for most all of
the summer. It's a wonder we never came down with food poisoning!

BROOKS MARINADE (KNOCK OFF)

1 egg
1 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
2 tbsp salt
1/2 c vinegar
1 c oil

Combine, marinade chicken in it, grill over charcoal. I sometimes reuse
the marinade once, but no more than that. It may sound like a lot of
salt but there is no "salty" taste. The restaurant is well known in the
area; they also do fund raiser bbqs for fire departments and such like.

That sounds almost idyllic, being prepared and having a backup plan to be

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the flours. Add the walnuts and orange
zest, and mix well. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until it is
well blended. A food processor equipped with a chopping blade works
well. Add just enough orange juice to form a moist but not wet dough.
Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill for 1 hour.

Let us know how this turns out? My oven is a bit wonky and I've been getting the cornbread either well done or very well done. It goes from raw to over cooked in under a second somehow.

Title: Steak & Shake 5 Way Chilli
Categories: Beef, Chilies, Beans, Herbs, Cheese
Yield: 8 Servings

MMMMM---------------------------CHILLI--------------------------------
2 lb Coarse ground chuck (80/20)
1 1/2 c Onion; diced
1 ts Celery salt
32 oz Tomato sauce
1 c Water
28 oz Pinto or Chilli beans
2 ts Garlic powder
1 1/2 ts Garlic salt
2 tb + 1 ts chilli spice mix
1/2 ts (ea) salt & pepper
16 oz Tomato paste

MMMMM-----------------------5-WAY ADD ONS----------------------------
1 lb (dry weight) spaghetti
1 md Onion; diced
12 oz Co-Jack (Monterey Jack &
- Colby cheese blend)
2 tb Heinz Chili Sauce

Please note the onions that are cooked in the chilli are
optional. You can leave them out. I personally love
onions when cooked in the chilli. Steak N Shake does not
add onions to cooked chilli. Chopped onions are served on
top of the chilli.

In a skillet on medium-low heat saute ground beef and
onions. When the beef has been cooked, drain all grease
and place in a medium-large saucepan. Add celery salt,
tomato sauce, beans, garlic powder, garlic salt, chilli
spice, pepper, water, and salt, mix all ingredients.

On low heat place a lid on the saucepan and simmer for
one hour, stirring frequently. After the chilli has been
cooking for an hour add tomato paste and stir well.
Place lid on the pan and simmer an additional half-hour.
Prepare spaghetti as directed and drain.

TO ASSEMBLE: For individual serving: In a shallow bowl
or plate place: Generous helpings of spaghetti 3/4 cup
chilli 2 tablespoon Chili Sauce, Chopped Onions (to taste)
1/2 cup Shredded Monterey Jack and Colby Cheese Mix Top
with additional onions to your taste.

Re: Sauces

Let us know how this turns out? My oven is a bit wonky and I've been getting the cornbread either well done or very well done. It goes from raw to over cooked in under a second somehow.
My crockpot works perfectly. :)

I made the crockpot cornbread yesterday, adding a can of creamed corn to
the recipe. Unfortunately, i put too much water in the crockpot. The top layer turned out fine, but the bottom layer was so soggy i put it in the compost. The water level rises quite a bit when i put the pans in.

I plan to try again. Next time i will reduce the amount of milk to adjust
for the liquid in the creamed corn, and i will reduce the amount of water
in the crockpot to avoid flooding the bottom layer.

Title: Yogurt Cheese Pie
Categories: Pies
Yield: 1 Pie

1 Graham cracker crust
1 1/2 c Cream cheese; softened
1 1/2 c Plain yogurt
1/2 c Honey
2 ts Vanilla extract
Sliced almonds, fresh
- berries, peaches, or
- other fruit; for garnish
- (optional)

This is a quick and wonderful pie to prepare, but you have to wait at
least 4 hours before you get to eat it!

Bake graham cracker crust for 10 minutes at 325?F. Cool.

Mix cream cheese, yogurt, honey, and vanilla with electric mixer until
smooth. Pour into cooled crust. Bake for 10 minutes at 325?F until
somewhat set; it will set more when cooled. Let set 4 to 6 hours in
refrigerator before serving. Garnish with sliced almonds or fruit
slices, strawberries, kiwi fruit, cherries, peaches, or blueberries,
if desired.

Hi Ben,

We're getting a gentle snow fall--started about 10:30 this morning and probably have somewhere +/- 1/4" so far. It's supposed to keep going
thru tomorrow; we went out yesterday to do some stocking up. Should the power go off, we'll move into the camper and use propane for heat/cook/other power needs.

That sounds almost idyllic, being prepared and having a backup plan to
be warm, toasty, and well fed.

We ended up with about 3.25" of snow. Thankfully our power stayed on,
but we did have the contingency plan. The camper stove (propane) has a
small oven, and 3 burners, plus we've other propane grills we could have
used, had it been neccessary.

The other day i got a pair of disposable aluminum bundt cake pans at
the Dollar Tree and they fit perfectly on top of each other in the crockpot. Today i plan to try my hand at making cornbread in the
crockpot. I plan to put foil on top of the pans, and put wooden chopsticks in between to support the top pan.

Sounds like a winner to me.

Happy camping!

Thanks, we're not planning any trips until spring, may do a short, local
one in April just to get away for a few days. Got a longer one coming up
later tho, to see Steve's family, attend an RV/radio net rally and then
go out west to see our daughters and their families.

Hi Ben,
On <Sun, 22 Feb 25>, you wrote me:

Darnit.

The top layer turned out fine, but the bottom layer was so soggy i compost. The water level rises quite a bit when i put the pans in.

At least the top layer was okay. It just seemed like such a time saver
when you posted the recipe.

I plan to try again. Next time i will reduce the amount of milk to
adjust for the liquid in the creamed corn, and i will reduce the
in the crockpot to avoid flooding the bottom layer.

If you end up "perfecting" it please re-post? I can't play with that
recipe as Andrea doesn't like when I have to throw anything away. Before
we met she went through a period of food insecurity that you just don't
get over.

Title: Pork Chop Bake
Categories: Main dish, Appetizers, Pork, Seandennis
Yield: 6 Servings

1 Bag (20 oz) refrigerated
Cooked shredded hash brown
Potatoes
1 Can (11 oz) condensed
Cheddar cheese soup
1/2 c Sour cream
1/2 c Milk
3 c Chopped fresh broccoli
Florets
1 Medium onion, chopped (1/2
Cup)
1 T Olive or vegetable oil
6 Bone-in pork chops (1/2 inch
Thick)
1/2 t Salt
1/4 t Pepper

Heat oven to 350F. In large bowl, mix potatoes, soup, sour cream,
milk, broccoli and onion. Spoon mixture into ungreased 13x9-inch
(3-quart) glass baking dish. Cover with foil; bake 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add 3
of the pork chops; sprinkle with half of the salt and pepper. Cook 3
to 5 minutes on each side or until pork is browned. Repeat with
remaining pork chops, salt and pepper.

Remove foil from baking dish. Place pork chops evenly on top of
potatoes, overlapping slightly. Bake 25 to 35 minutes longer or until
edges are bubbly and pork is no longer pink in center.

Tips: Skip the pork chops and this casserole becomes a tasty side
dish. Next time, try substituting 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
for the pork chops.

The use of "woke" as a pejorative is a typical propaganda trick used

My crockpot works perfectly. :)

I tried again yesterday and my second batch of cornbread turned out perfect. The only thing is that this 1975 recipe calls for so much wheat flour and butter that to me the result tastes more like biscuits than cornbread. It
went very well with a batch of vegetable soup. Here is my adapted recipe.

---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05

Title: Crockpot Cornbread
Categories: Breads, Crockpot
Yield: 6 Servings

1 c Water
1 1/4 c All-purpose flour
3/4 c Yellow corn meal
14 3/4 oz Can creamed corn
4 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 ts Salt
1 Egg; slightly beaten
1/2 c Milk
1/3 c Butter; melted -OR-
1/3 c Vegetable oil

Place 1 cup of water in the crockpot and turn on HIGH. Grease two
disposable aluminum tube pans, 8" by 2-1/4" deep. Shorten a pair
of disposable bamboo chopsticks to just under 8".

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, corn meal, baking
powder, and salt. Make a well in the center. Turn the egg, milk,
and melted butter or oil into the well and beat into the dry
mixture until just moistened. Turn into two tube pans and cover
with foil.

Place first tube pan directly into crockpot. Top with chopsticks as
far toward the outside of the crockpot as possible. Place second
tube pan on top of the chopsticks. Cover the cooker and cook for
3 to 4 hours.

Hi Shawn,

I've saved it over top of the original. I might cut the flour down
even more as the GF flour we use it too expensive to waste. :)

Yesterday i made my favorite cornbread recipe, except in the crockpot
instead of the oven. I also doctored it up with cheddar and chiles and
it turned out very well. I think i am ready to graduate to the other
crockpot bread recipes. Here's a recipe for what i made yesterday.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Crockpot Buttermilk Corn Bread
Categories: Cornbread, Crockpot
Yield: 4 Servings

2 c Corn flour or meal
2 c Buttermilk
3 Eggs
2 tb Butter; melted
1 ts Baking soda
1 ts Salt
7 oz Can fire roasted diced chiles
1/4 c Cheddar cheese; grated

Place 1 cup of water in the crockpot and turn on HIGH. Grease two
disposable aluminum tube pans, 8" by 2-1/4" deep. Shorten a pair
of disposable bamboo chopsticks to just under 8".

In a large bowl, sift together corn flour or meal, baking soda, and
salt. In a medium bowl, beat eggs until pale yellow. Mix in butter,
buttermilk, grated cheese, and chiles. Mix egg mixture into corn
flour mixture until just moistened. Turn into two tube pans and
cover with foil. Cut an X in the center and fold foil into hole.
Fold foil over outside edge to seal.

Place first tube pan directly into crockpot. Top with chopsticks as
far toward the outside of the crockpot as possible. Place second
tube pan on top of the chopsticks. Cover the cooker and cook for
3 to 4 hours. Remove tube pans from crockpot, uncover, and cool
for 15 minutes. Then run a knife around the outside and inside
edges and turn out cornbread onto a plate.

Note: If you make it with baking powder, it will not rise properly.
