Pepperoncini Beef Roast

Lately there has been a post on "Face Book" showing a recipe for roast beef with pepperoncini peppers. Now I often have made roast pork in this manner so I decided to try a beef roast recipe in this style.
Most of my friends know that I collect cookbooks and one in my collection had the recipe I wanted to try. The cookbook was "The Red Hat Society Cookbook" from 2006. The recipe was "Slow Cooker Italian Sandwich Beef". Slow cooker recipes are some of my favorites. This one was super easy.
It was a dump everything in and cook low and slow. Near the end of the cooking time I roasted some potatoes, caramelized onions and toasted the rolls. The liquid left in the cooker was spooned into bowls for dipping the sandwich.
It made a very tasty sandwich! Give it a try.

It was just a platter !

There was a platter in some of my grandmothers things that my father had brought home years ago. There is a picture of a turkey on the face of the platter. It is still in fair condition considering that I am sure grandma used it a lot. We celebrated every holiday and lots of Sundays eating at her house. And since she didn't have a lot of "stuff" stored around in her small house, I'm sure I have seen it setting on the table with hams, turkeys or meat loafs to be served. It wasn't until I turned it over that the true value of this platter was revealed to me! No it wasn't a makers mark from a fine china company in Japan or Germany. Nothing to convince me that this was valuable fine china. It was a piece of adhesive tape right in the middle of the back. Written in grandma's hand writing was a note. It read, From Mary Kathryn and Robert Lee, 1953. It was a gift to her from my parents in the year that I was born. Priceless! The first thing I d...

Cooking at 7200

I recently I drove to Laramie Wyoming to visit my son and daughter in law. As usual, when we get together we cook. We try new techniques and recipes that we think will compete or beat restaurant meals. I believe that we were successful with our attempts this time. Although it took me awhile to adjust to cooking at a high altitude. It takes a longer time or hotter temp to complete your dish. First up, Ty. Ty was anxious to show me a new technique. He used a Sous Vide to cook a Prime Rib Roast. A Sous Vide device brings your dish to a perfect temperature in a vacuum sealed bag in water and holds it there until you are ready. In this case it was a rib roast. After reaching the assigned temp he then seasoned the roast and seared all sides to finish. For a beef eater this was outstanding. I can see a Sous Vide device in my kitchen soon. I had a Cooks Country magazine from Feb/Mar 2020 with me to try some new recipes. I made their It...

Remembering Birch Creek Orchards

Recently, I have been reading a book by Barbara Kingsolver titled "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle." This book is truly inspiring and focuses on harvesting local foods to reduce the amount of fuel used to transport foods all over the U.S. She also emphasizes eating foods only when they are in season. Over Labor Day weekend, we took a trip back home to Jeddo, MI for my cousin's wedding (shout out to the beautiful bride Sarah Lawson!!). While there, my uncle Mike invited us to his house to pick fresh peaches, apples and pears. I was thrilled! This was my chance to eat locally and harvest fruit while it was in season! No more California fruit for me! I took my husband and kids and we picked away. We filled boxes full of fruit and ate the fruit right off the tree! It was a special treat for me. Then it hit me, sadness...see friends, growing up my family helped operate Birch Creek Orchards in Jeddo, Mi. Everyone in my family helped! Even the smalle...
