    Smoking Chickens

    We are going to smoke some whole chickens tomorrow on a small Hondo smoker that we have only used one time for smoking brisket (which was pretty good, but a little dry). We have the wood soaking, so we know that much :lol:. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips/techniques to help us out...

    Julie and Julia - The Movie

    Has anybody seen this movie? I don't think it's out on dvd yet, but I don't know for sure. When I called Blockbuster, they said it was listed, but they didn't have it. Then again, we seem to be waaaayyy behind the times for some things here in Texas :rolleyes:. YouTube - Julie & Julia -...

    Oxtails in Texas?

    I'm always looking for something new and different to try. I saw some ox tails at the grocery store today. Do you think what they're selling here in Texas are really tails from oxen or might they be tails from cows? And, do you consider ox tails budget food (they weren't cheap) or a delicacy?

    Cameras used for Photos Posted

    Would anyone care to share what brand of camera that they are using for the photos posted on here? Some of them are out of this world, crisp and clear, etc. I am using an old point-and-shoot :lol: Olympus Stylus 300 (3 megapixels) :lol:, but I would dearly love to have a new camera, one with...

    Beef and Cheese Manicotti

    I made Giada's Beef and Cheese Manicotti last night (1/2 recipe). It was pretty good. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it about an 8. The marinara sauce was from Recipezaar (recipe #171479).

    Favorite Kitchen Tools or Gadgets

    I got to use my favorite little kitchen tool tonight, my immersion blender. I know it's kind of silly, but I just love to pull that thing out and buzz up a sauce. I used it on marinara tonight and had to hold myself back because I sometimes tend to overdo with it. It's just sooooo cool! My...

    "Era Favorite" Foods that Hang On....and On....

    Onion Dip, the one where you simply mix a packet of Lipton onion soup mix with sour cream, became popular in the 1950's. I still do that dip today, and I still love it. What are some more of the "era favorites" that have surpassed the test of time that we still do today? I know fondue from the...

    Flexible Cake Pan?

    I have been wanting to try the flexible bakeware. Today I found this pan for 75% off (cost me $3.74 :smile:), so I decided to get it and give it a try. I envisioned making a cake in it. Now that I get it home and start thinking about it, I'm not sure it is for a cake. I'm thinking now it's...

    Two Cooks in the Kitchen

    My husband and I both love to cook, BUT we both have very strong personalities (aka hard-heads, bossy, my way is the "right" way, etc). While we like to cook together, we found ourselves disagreeing on the "how-to" and "when-to" all the time. So........we now agree in advance each night on who...
