Sam's Famous Carrot Cake

Reviewed: Apr. 19, 2010
This is an excellent carrot cake. I made it exactly according to directions except that I made 1 1/2 times the recipe to make it a 3 layer cake. I also used the cream cheese frosting recipe from this site but modified it slightly. Made this for a family get together - they couldn't stop eating it. I have to say that it is the best carrot cake I have ever made and family members agree as well. This will be my go to carrot cake recipe from now on. Brian, thanks for sharing this fabulous recipe...

Beef Barley Soup

Reviewed: Apr. 23, 2009
This is a delicious beef soup! The flavours are excellent. You can easily take this and make it your own. I did use fresh stewing beef as oppose to cooked. I also substituted half of the barley for soup mix (different legumes, beans, etc.) I used homemade beef stock that I had on hand. A very satisfying, comforting soup.

Round Steak and Gravy II

Reviewed: Sep. 20, 2008
I thought this was very good and my husband loved it - thought it was pure comfort food. Made a few changes but stayed true to the basic recipe. Had 3 to 4 lbs. of marinating steak so used 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 2 pkg's onion soup mix, 2 cans undiluted beef broth and an extra half can of water, 2 cans sliced mushrooms drained, and 3 bell peppers - red/orange/yellow. When I browned the meat I sprinkled the meat with ground black pepper and garlic poweder - no salt needed because of the onion soup mix. I then removed the meat and added the broth, water and removed the brown bits from the bottom, then added the mushroom soup, onion soup mix, mushrooms, peppers - mixed well and then returned the meat to the pot. Then put it in the oven and cooked it for 1 1/2 hours - it was done by then and very tender. I used a cash iron pot which can go from stove top to oven to freezer and cooks beautifully.
