To me, this is what a hobo dinner is... Large dutch oven or have even seen new galvenized steel garbage cans used, placed over a fire. Meaty ham bones and lots of smoked sausage, cut into bite-sized chunks several cabbages, cut in 1/8 lots of carrots, cut in big bite sized chunks lots of...

thank-you for the herb bread/roll recipes! Thank-you all for your thoughtful responses. These all sound excellent. Since I have to work Friday I think I'll go for the easier one--the herb pull apart rolls. I LOVE to cook but I'm not a very good baker. I do love to make things from scratch...

hello! I want to make herb rolls for a special Italian dinner on Friday. I have fresh basil, rosemary and thyme. Anyone have a good recipe? Thanks!!:rolleyes:

Micheal in FtW, thanks, I'm glad I did some searching and you answered my question.

Hi, I bought a plantain, a blacker one, not a green one. What can I do with it? Thank-you!:wacko:

thanks! I wish I could make French onion soup, but there would be no way to bake the soup with bread and cheese at the contest (darn it!). That's an excellent suggestion though! The potato soup recipe I have is awesome...thanks for your replies!! :chef:

Howdee! We're having a soup cook-off at work, and I'm thinking about entering. Last year I entered Hot & Sour soup, and it was really good, but didn't win. The crowd I'm cooking for is kinda conservative...sort of a chili, potato or veggie soup crowd. I don't think I'd make any particularly...

Howdee, It's been a couple of years since I've cooked a turkey. Usually I try and get a big one due to lots of guests...and I try to get a good deal...so I usually get a store brand or Riverside brand, around 27 lbs, frozen, real cheap. I never understood the complaints about "dry" turkey...

Hi...boiling the bones from the t-day turkey now...any ideas for a great turkey soup? I have the leftover gravy to add as well...Thanks!:huh:

hash browns One of my favorites is making hash browns with onions. The rule is, always bake a couple of extra potatoes for a delicious breakfast or supper side dish the next day. Here is the method for perfect shredded hash browns: Perfect and easy Hash Browns, one serving: 1 large...

Cardamom, low cost spices & get the subject going agian! Hi-- I don't use cardamom much but wish I used it more, because I really like it. I have about an 8 year old bottle of it in my cupboard too. Cardomom seeds are what gives that delicious rice pudding served in Indian restaurants its...

sounds great! This sounds great...I'll try as peaches are in season now!! Yum:chef:

They sound wonderful. Don't be surprised if the purple turns to green while cooking. Yum.

icky and yummy spices & herbs I agree with some...it's Cumin I don't like. I've tried ground, roasting the whole seeds, etc. I just hate it. I'm going to thrown mine away. On the other hand...I love Fennel seed. I always put it into spaghetti & lasagna. I love cilantro, and crave it. I...

beef ribs I have found that beef ribs, although tastey, are quite tough. They need to either be slow smoked (bbQ'd) outdoors, or baked in the oven until tender, which takes some time. After they are baked in the oven until tender, you can grill them and add BBQ sauce.
