  1. Hello,

    I've been lurking for awhile....

    Hosting the SuperBowl party this year. I'm trying to find a "football" friendly dinner, and I don't
    want to do the typical big ole pot of chili. What I'm thinking is this...

    Any ideas as to what else I could add to the dinner part of the night?

    I lived in the BBQ belt for many years. One or more of the following:

    potato salad (preferably the German style, especially if you make mayonnaise-dressed coleslaw) a
    mess of baked beans or cooked pinto beans a mess of cooked greens a tray of pickles, jalapenos, hot
    sauce, and the like

    Cobbler for dessert is a must.

    How about a sour cream based potato salad or homemade macaroni and cheese? If you don't ever make
    mac and cheese from scrach, the recipe on the Mueller's macaroni box is a good general recipe.
    You'll want to have some hot sauce handy for your meal, and make sure you have some sliced rolls for
    sandwiches.

    For a traditional southern BBQ sandwich, you need a scoop of good cole slaw on your sandwich, not
    off to the side. Most BBQ places in the south do that. They put slaw on hot dogs down south also,
    which is quite delicious..

    This is good for a start. I'd add some spicy wings to the menu along with some snacking foods.
    Tortilla chips and salsa, chips and dip. Some cheese balls with crackers, crudite' and perhaps a
    smoked sausage log to slice.

    Oh, I'd also still make the pot of chili. If all else fails, it'll be great for lunch the next day.

    The Bowl parties I've thrown the snacky, finger foods were the favorites. Have fun!

    Michael, great to see you back!!!!

    My friend brought some dips to NYE the other night. The lipton golden onion soup mix dip was nice,
    but I prefer the regular one....but I really liked the one she made with Hidden Valley Ranch
    dip/salad dressing mix. And the one she did with the Good Seasons Italian was very nice, too. She
    added extra garlic. I loved the onion with chips and pretzels, the veggies with all of them.

    Party menu sounds like a winner.

    Let's just say I have a new appreciation for jello. When starved for weeks and put on a semi liquid

    Oh, how I remember that. Two times in my life (broken jaw and right after fundoplication surgery)
    I've been on the all-liquid diet, and it gets old real quick. For the broken jaw I was pretty much a
    fixture at the local fruit smoothy bar near my place in Minneapolis.

  18. Hey, off topic for this thread, but can somebody post REAL recipes for pulled pork and beef BBQ? My
    family never ate them growing up, and hubby's did. We've been getting the Lloyd's buckets, but I'd
    rather make it homemade. We get every variety except chicken (he's allergic to chicken). (We
    generally eat it with bread/biscuits and a green veg on the side or salad. Or Doritos.)

    Thanks! Tara Danielle The other Tara who's also a teacher :-)

    PS I don't mean the Philly style kind, I mean the Southern kind.

    Here's the FAQ for Barbecue. eaglequest.comtoc.html

    Good pulled pork barbecue is cooked low and slow over a wood fire. No other way. There aren't really
    any specific recipes, just techniques.

    I start a pork butt and put a dry rub on it. Basically, salt and pepper, though you can add any
    other spices that you want. I might add some red pepper flakes and/or cayenne pepper.

    Then you cook it in your "pit" of choice (mine is a Kamado, www.kamado.com) for many hours at about
    200° to 250° F for as long as it takes to get the internal temperature to about 195° so that the
    fats and collegen will break down and render out. This can be up to 24 hours or longer. It is done
    when you can shred it with a couple of forks.

    The dipping sauce that I use is basically cider vinegar, red pepper flakes, freshly ground black
    pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper (to taste).

    If you want a better definition, or other techniques, you might visit alt.food.barbecue, or for some
    pictures, alt.binaries,food.

    Hope this helps and gets you eating real barbecue.

    BOB Who is going to start the fire for some pulled pork about now. Lunch tomorrow should be great!

    Pulled Pork with Carolina Style Basting Sauce

    Makes 6 main course or 8 side dish servings

    For the pork roast:

    A 4 to 5 lb pork shoulder, bone in or out ¼ cup Holiday Spice Rub 3 tablespoons brown sugar 2
    tablespoons yellow mustard

    For the basting sauce:

    2 cups apple juice ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 2 teaspoons Holiday Spice
    Rub 1 teaspoon dry mustard 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 bay leaves, crushed 2 cloves garlic, minced 1
    teaspoon ground ginger ¼ teaspoon cayenne

    Coat the pork roast evenly with a very thin layer of yellow mustard. In a small bowl, combine the
    Holiday Spice Rub with 3 tablespoons of the brown sugar. Rub the dry mixture evenly over the pork,
    getting as much to stick as possible. Wrap the roast in plastic wrap and leave in the fridge
    overnight.

    Preheat oven to 275 F

    Remove the pork roast from the oven about an hour before you plan to cook it to allow it to come to
    room temperature somewhat. Put it into a roasting pan and load it into the oven. A roasting rack can
    be used but it’s not necessary.

    You can make the basting sauce while the roast is in the oven. Here’s what to do:

    Heat all of the basting sauce ingredients in a non-reactive pan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the
    heat and simmer for 15 min.

    The roast should come out of the oven when it reaches an internal temperature of 190 to 195 degrees
    F. Since it cooks at a relatively low oven temperature of 275 F it will take longer then the average
    roast, plan on about an hour per lb, but that’s only an estimate. It’s strongly recommended that you
    use a meat thermometer to determine when it’s finished cooking.

    When pork cooks to such a high internal temperature, in this case 190 degrees F, it shreds or
    “pulls” apart very easily, hence the name “pulled pork”. After removing the roast from the oven,
    allow it to rest for at least 20 minutes, then shred the meat using your hands or a pair of forks.
    Moisten the meat with

    a touch of the basting sauce, then serve the remaining sauce on the side.

    It’s a Carolina tradition to serve pulled pork on hamburger buns with an apple/vinegar basting sauce
    like the one given here. It’s also good served with prepared mustard or BBQ sauce. Some serve it
    with coleslaw as well, right on the bun with the pork.

    Cook’s Notes:

    - This dish can be cooked in an oven as shown, but it’s best when cooked on a BBQ/smoker. It’s worth
    the effort if you have one.
    - If you don’t have time to leave the roast in the fridge overnight after applying the rub, it’s not
    a problem. You can apply the rub and cook it right away.
    - This is a “low and slow” cooking method. Patience is required, and the cooking time can vary
    significantly for various reasons. Use a meat thermometer to get the cooking time just right; the
    “one hour per pound” rule is only an estimate.
    - When cooking, especially for a crowd, it’s usually better to have the roast finish too early than
    too late. Since the finished roast will keep for hours wrapped in foil in a warm oven with no loss
    in quality, you can start cooking early knowing that it will keep warm as long as you need it to.
    - Pulled pork freezes very well. Splash a bit of the sauce onto the meat and freeze it in zip bags.
    They can be defrosted easily by in simmering water.
