Hash Brown Casserole II

Reviewed: May 26, 2009
Delicious and easy. I followed the recipe with the exception of using Mushroom soup instead of chicken as others suggested. I will try the french fried onion on top sometime.

Honey Mustard Beer Brats

Reviewed: May 26, 2009
I thought these turned out really good. What I liked most was how easy it was to make. The addition of the bbq sauce was great. The house did smell good while it was cooking. I also skipped the red bell pepper as I didn't have any and used two green instead. I added more garlic than called for as I do with most dishes. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Grilled Chicken Adobo

Reviewed: May 26, 2009
This one was ok. I liked the flavor. I did follow the suggestions and reduced the soy sauce. If I tried this again I'd use boneless chicken breast instead.

Hoot-n Holler Baby Back Pork Ribs

Reviewed: May 4, 2009
I'm glad I went for this one although there hadn't been any reviews before mine. I loved it. We loved it. The changes I made were minor. I added 1 more bay leaf, quartered a large onion and sprinkled some rub into the water mix as well. It smelled great as it was cooking and our mouths were salivating even prior to grilling. I doubled the sauce because I had 3 racks of ribs. I think that next time I'll either use a different BBQ sauce than Sweet Baby Ray's or use it but decrease the brown. It was just a tad sweeter than I've liked. But over all it was moist and fantastic!

Scalloped Corn

Reviewed: May 4, 2009
Very good. The only change I made was to use a 6.5 ounce corn bread mix instead of 8.5. Still tasted great!

Paprika Chicken with Sour Cream Gravy

Reviewed: May 1, 2009
I wish I had batteries but since I'm out I couldn't take a picture this time. I'm glad I went for it anyway. I made minor changes. I used only half of the amount called for of the cayenne, I cooked the chicken and set it aside I added some sliced mushrooms to the butter, cooked it and then added the soup and about a 1/2 cup of milk. Placed the chicken back in the pan and kept an eye on it while it completed the last 10 minutes of cooking. It was great. I just thought that it needed salt and had to add some afterwords.

Kathy's Southern Corn Pudding

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009
This turned out well. It was a great addition to our Easter Dinner. I did modify this slightly though. I cut the butter to just 1/4 cup, the sugar to 1/3 cup. I sprinkled some nutmeg and a little cinnamon on it as well. Baked it in a round dish instead of the 9 x 13, at 400 degrees because that was the time for the other 2 dishes that needed to go in the oven and just kept checking on it to make sure that it wasn't burning or to check when it was done. I received various complements on it.

Blackjack Brisket

Reviewed: Apr. 14, 2009
I also made a smaller version of this recipe due to the size of brisket I got. I used half a bottle of beer. I followed most of the recipe and the changes I made were very minor; such as adding 2 tbs. bourbon and also using Hickory flavored Liquid Smoke. Now after having made this I have to say that it was good but we weren't blown away by this recipe. I think that we like to have a nice rub made with a spice mixture because the flavor in this was just ok for us. The reason I am still giving it a four star rating is because it turned out moist and tasted better the next day. Maybe like others suggested, it just needed to marinate for a while longer.

Naan

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009
Outstanding! Our family loved it and my son said "I think I'm addicted to this bread". I used COLLEGECHEF1's advice and used the melted butter and garlic mixture. Thank you Mic!

Chicken Makhani (Indian Butter Chicken)

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009
Very good. We all enjoyed it. I didn't have lemon so I used buttermilk in it's place but followed the other ingredients and directions as stated with the exception of using the cornstarch and water, which I used the crushed cashews instead. It was excellent.

Slow Cooked Corned Beef for Sandwiches

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009
What can I said that hasn't been said before? It was delicious and I'm sorry I didn't try it sooner. SDK, this is a jewel. I appreciate you sharing such a delightful and most importantly in my case, easy recipe that will be repeated over and over again.

Indian-Style Rice with Cashews, Raisins and Turmeric

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009
I loved the way this turned out. I think that it was a wonderful complement to our Indian Themed dinner. I served this with Chicken Makhani (Indian Butter Chicken) and Naan from this site. I highly recommend it.

I just realized that I forgot to review this one. Oops! We liked this! I'm not sure if I made any changes. But I remember that it was gone fast.

Brown Bean Chowder

Reviewed: Apr. 6, 2009
This is a good base and full of possibilities. I cooked the beans slightly longer than suggested. I decided that the amount of bread crumbs would make it too thick. I cut it down to 3/4 cup and it was still too much so I added more water. I didn't have plain bread crumbs but I had Garlic and Herb bread crumbs. After it was done I tasted it and thought it needed more seasoning, so I added some cumin, more chili powder, some oregano, some Cayenne pepper, 1 bay leaf and some chopped fresh cilantro. It was a lot better that way but it borders on almost too much salt (which I hadn't changed) I'm sending some to my 81 year old mother-in-law. She loves beans in any way, shape or form. :)

The Ultimate Shaken Bloody Mary

Ok, this didn't work for me. I thought that the taste was off. It was either the Old Bay or the Dill or both. Sorry.

Amazingly Easy Irish Soda Bread

Reviewed: Mar. 31, 2009
I have no concept of what Irish Soda Bread taste likes but I do know that this was very good. It does resemble a biscuit in a way. I added a handful of raisins to mine. I would agree that you don't need 1/4 cup of butter and buttermilk. Instead 2 tbs. should be fine. That reminds me... I didn't have Margarine so I used butter instead. Thank you for sharing this great recipe MP!

Gulliver's Cream Corn

Reviewed: Mar. 24, 2009
This was good. I wouldn't say it's the best from this site based on others I've had but it CERTAINLY is BETTER than the canned stuff. I still prefer "Cream Corn Like No Other" from this site over this or some of the others made in the slow cooker. I will say that it was fast to prepare and very easy. I didn't use the Parmesan cheese like other reviewers suggested, maybe I'd give it a try that way sometime.

Cinnamon Bread I

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009
Nice Cinnamon bread. It was more mild than I had thought it would be. I followed the recommendations of other reviewers and doubled the topping and added part to the center and followed by the remaining batter. I also separated the dry ingredients and then added those to the wet ones. The house smelled great while it was baking!

Almond Maple Granola

Reviewed: Mar. 23, 2009
Terrific recipe. I haven't made my own before but I intend to from now on. The taste was very good. I used only 1 cup of flaked coconut, added some chopped pecans for additional crunchiness and used regular raisins, craisins and golden raisins.
