If you’ve never made pulled pork in your slow cooker/Crock Pot you’re in for quite a treat. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and delicious pulled pork is when prepared this way. The slow cooker literally does all the work. I’ve made it with the classic, sweet and smoky BBQ sauce several times (find…
We were craving fish and chips this past weekend and instead of heading to the nearest pub, we decided to make up a batch at home. If you have a deep fryer it’s easy! Make sure you give the deep fryer sufficient time to preheat to the proper temperature before cooking your fish and chips…
We made a big batch of these for our Labor Day picnic this past weekend. This is a tried and true recipe that I’ve made hundreds of times and it’s SO good. I make my classic deviled eggs a bit differently than most people do. I don’t use pickle relish because I think it makes…
This is such a fun, easy, fairly inexpensive idea for an intimate autumn gathering. Last night we hosted a little dinner party and this macaroni and cheese bar was the star of the show. The key is to start with an excellent macaroni and cheese recipe and to offer lots of delicious, interesting toppings. Don’t…

Are you ready to experience a bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich the way it should always be experienced? Lucky you to have found this post! Seriously, this is the best BLT I’ve ever had because the bacon is thick and woven together into a perfect square so you get bacon in every bite! I included…
Inspired by a recent visit to a local pub that serves these amazing peanut butter and jelly chicken wings, Jeff decided to make up a batch for Super Bowl Sunday. They turned out so, so good! The sauce is amazing and the texture is perfect. Adjust the spiciness to suit your tastes by adding a…
When I first heard the name of this sandwich I was caught up in this beautiful romance trilogy set in Ireland. The author, Nora Roberts, had mesmerized me with the green, earthy setting of the place. One of the main characters owned and operated a charming pub and “built” bookmaker’s sandwiches for his customers, often…
We’re still having fun celebrating our 19th Wedding anniversary! I woke up to a huge bouquet of fresh pink and purple Alstroemaria flowers, French press coffee, and our favorite bagels and lox breakfast. We want to cook something slightly fancy, delicious and healthy for dinner tonight and we’re thinking this sesame-seared ahi tuna with sushi…
