Except I clearly stated I wanted to make sweet style chili with beans, not Texas style which I do not care for.

Not just the beans, the tomato juice that I am use to using has 8g net carbs per 8oz.

I have been absolutely dying for some chili since I switched to a ketogenic diet on 11/25 (already down 26lbs). I just could not seem to figure out a way to get that taste and mouth feel that I crave. I prefer sweet style, which just means it has beans and a higher amount of liquid than say...

If you leave the hot peppers out they turn out pretty mild. You could use less Frank's if you want the heat reduced even more as well. With the serrano's added the heat level goes from about a 2-3 to 5-6.

I posted this recipe kind of in the Saturday Dinner thread, but I tweaked it a bit today and it came out even better. Seriously I think it might be the best wing sauce I have ever had. That is saying something considering how much I love wings. This is for about 20 wing pieces generously...

I have always been a fan of the deep fryer for wings, so much so that I had never tried another method. Today I combined some tips for making crispy wings in the oven that I found on the internet. First tip is to unpack and pat the wings dry with paper towels and then let them sit...

It is actually a great deal on Japanese Wagyu beef. Too rich for my blood, but I did have a rich friend take me to a steakhouse that served Japanese Wagyu steaks. It was the single best thing I have ever tasted in my life, no comparison. It was also over $600 for just the two of us with no...

So a couple weeks ago I switched to a ketogenic diet. The first week was rough, very hard to control my carb cravings. This week has been much better and I have not really had any carb cravings, though they still sound good lol. This recipe is loosely based on one of my Runza recipes, but...

Bushes make the best beans and weiners! Try adding bit of siracha next time, takes it up a big notch. :chef:

I have to brag a bit here. Tonight I made the best sausage gravy I have ever had in my life. That is saying something, I am VERY picky about sausage gravy and I have tried it in dozens of places locally and across the country in my few travels. I am so picky about it that I have only tried to...

When was the last time you tried them? I know there were several years where it was really hard to find good tasting tots. The last few years though Ore Ida tots have been very good.

For example, there are certain foods that I simply cannot eat without the corresponding side. I don't mean I prefer them together, I mean I won't/can't eat them. There are several foods I can't eat without cottage cheese. Beans & wieners, tater tot casserole & cheeseburger hamburger helper...

I know most people have a tater tot casserole recipe, but I thought I would share mine. This is actually the combination of my grandmother's, my mother's and my recipe which I like better then any of the three individual ones. 1-1.5 lb lean ground beef 1 10.5 ounce can cream of mushroom soup...

I think I might enjoy the peanut butter in chili, I don't think the rest of my family would share my opinion lol. :lol:

I am a sweet and salty fiend! I love french fries dipped in soft serve ice cream, pineapple and Canadian bacon pizza, chicken noodle soup with peanut butter and crackers, sharp cheddar cheese with apples or melon. I have even eaten a cheeseburger slathered in peanut butter and enjoyed that...

I am so hungry for chili I thought I would post my favorite chili recipe. This makes a very large batch and I use my biggest stock pot or I split it into two slow cookers. You can easily half it if you don't want to make as much, but if freezes very well. This chili will be thinish with lots...

I am really hungry for Chili but I am trying so hard to wait for at least cool weather...

Getting a break today, my Aunt is making one of my top 3 meals, ham balls! I usually get them on my birthday and one other time during the year. I sometimes make them myself but they never turn out quite as good as hers. :yum:

Scalloped potatoes and ham, it was very good! I was gone most of the day so I threw it in the crockpot on low at 9am and it was perfect by 5!

We had one of my strange but really good meals tonight. Had some of my left over sloppy joe meat, you mix that into Kraft mac and cheese (yes the box stuff) you follow the box directions but add 3 slices of American cheese along with the sloppy joe meat, its really good. Had fresh corn on the...

That looks AMAZING! I really need to try my hand at homemade kraut again!

I wonder if Merkts is similar to Hickory Farms? Hickory Farms use to have an amazing swiss cheese log that I have not been able to find for years. I really miss it!

Yes, if you are using a true roasting pan use the lid, if you don't have a lid cover tightly with foil. Also if you are not sure how well your pan will hold in moisture, its best to check it at the half way point and then an hour or two later and make sure there is enough moisture to finish...

I disagree that they are inconsistent. Once you learn your crockpot, unless it malfunctions, it should perform exactly the same every time. No, they are not perfect for everything. However having 6-8 meals in my rotation that I can throw together the night before and turn on when I wake up in...

I completely disagree, yes sometimes they are inconsistent between brands but once you know the one you have you can get a great result almost every time. During the fall and winter I use mine all the time, often running two at the same time. I would not want to be without mine.
