Alix & Meat Loaf Alix , 'meat loaf mix" is sold usually in good meat stores , most places don't have it . All it is , is ground like hamburger , beef pork and veal . I have tried it and to tell you the truth it's a waste of money . I buy hamburger in 5 pound packages for $1.39 a pound and I...

Spaghetti & Meat Balls I used to buy a gallon of meat sauce , a gallon of marinara and 2 dozen meat balls at one of my favorite Italian restaurants , then I would freeze all of it in individual containers . The price for all of this was just under $80.00 . It was really good and worth the price...

Marmalady I know all about it , In 1990 I owned 38 dry-cleaning stores . Today I have none and I am retired . I closed about 1/3 of the stores and sold the rest . Our industry was basically targeted by S. Korean immigrants and they have pretty much taken over . Years ago I owned a Coney Island...

I was just reading some post on this sight where some of the posters were recommending store bought spaghetti sauces . I normally cannot stand the taste of store bought sauces of any kind . That said I was in Costco a while back and I saw this jerk sauce in a 48 ounce bottle (liquid) , it...

Crewsk & Mudbug Crewsk , thanks for the input ..........Mudgug , I really don't know . It might be a full service place or maybe a carry out only . Like I said , I am looking for ideas . I saw a program on the Food Network where these guys opened up a chicken wing place and made it . It's all...

Midie , I sure am interested . Post it when you can . Thanks

I recently lost my business after 35 years . I am thinking of opening a small restaurant with my son and am looking for some really good recipes for same . I don't care what kind of food it is , it just has to be something that you or your family really like . You know , one of those old family...

What is ...."Fresh"..... tomato puree ? The Reaper !

Filus , I tried your grouper recipe , not bad . I think something is missing though , maybe some Mexican Oregano ? Also I thought that by using the tomato sauce it made it a little to sweet for my taste . Maybe I'll try using some canned tomatoes run through a processor next time . That said it...
