Herbed Rib Roast
Excellent combination of herbs adds a subtle flavor. I DO NOT cut into the meat, as this allows juices to seep out. Instead, separate the fat from the meat and insert your garlic in these areas. I also use about 3 to 4 times the amount of garlic called for. I preheat my oven to 450° and allow the roast to cook at this temp for 20 minutes. I then decrease the temp to 250°. By cooking at a low temp your roast will be cooked evenly throughout. About an hour/pound for rare.

Shepherd's Pie V
I noticed that some of the reviewers found this dish to be too salty, I actually added more salt at the table; just personal preference. Tripled the amount of steak seasoning called for and added some garlic powder. Sautéed onions and green bell peppers with the ground beef, I then stirred in corn and Italian-style tomatoes for veggies. Next time I'll use fresh minced garlic and perhaps some gravy mix or onion soup mix as other reviewers suggested, a bit too bland for my taste buds as is.

Pork Chops with Delicious Gravy
The gravy was too sweet and thick, had to quickly thin it down. Other than that, this made for a tasty meal. Next time I will omit the honey and increase the amount of milk. Will probably double the amount of gravy called for as well.
