Poor Man snack pizzas Hotwire style

ingredients: Can of bicuits ( the cheaper the better)
Pizza sauce, your favorite
shredded cheese, pepperoni,
sausage,vegetables, whatever you like

directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Smoosh the biscuits flat onto a pizza pan or flat baking surface. Sprinkle on cheese and add your toppings.
Put the biscuits in the oven and watch them real close . Since the dough is squashed it will only take 3 to 5 minutes. Just long enough to melt the cheese!
Take them out and let them cool. I know its hard to wait cause they will smell so good but you DO NOT want to burn your mouth like I did!
The first batch will not last long so while all the kids are gobbling them up be sure to already have the next batch in the oven!
Helpful tip for large familysI like to buy those cheap 4 can packs of biscuits and use 2 pizza pans. That way you can have a rotation in and out of the oven for a steady flow of grubb!
Copper member dadsThe kids will love you and the wife will be impressed because you made a healthy snack! Just be sure not to burn the biscuits and set off the smoke detector!

enough water to finish filling the crock pot.

Christmas Cookies

Here's a great recipe that I thought you might want to try this year:


1 cup of water
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 cup of brown sugar
lemon juice
4 large eggs
1 cup nuts
2 cups of dried fruit
1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequilla

Sample the Cuervo to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.

Turn on the electric mixer...Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.

Add one teaspoon of sugar...Beat again. At this point it's best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK, try another cup ... just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit, Pick the frigging fruit off floor... Mix on the ****. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the Cuervo to check for consisticity.

Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who giveshz a sheet. Check the Jose Cuervo. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or something. Whatever you can find. Grease the oven.


Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't forget
to beat off the ****. Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.

I once ran into an old codger that gave me the recipe for cooking carp.

You have to clean the fish first so he suggested you take a piece of cardboard, place it on the counter, then lay the carp on its side and scrape all the scales off then turn and scrape all the scales off the other side. Off course you have to remove the guts.

Then keeping it on the piece of cardboard, salt and pepper and put into an oven at 325 degrees. cook for about 5 minutes on each side. Do not over cook.

Then pull from the oven and throw the carp away and eat the cardboard.

Yup, my favorite recipe!

Being the father of a young man in the boy scouts, I have collected a large volume of dutch oven treats I like to cook fireside.Probably one of my favorites is a polish dish that I cant pronounce but is mighty tastey! This is cooked in a 12 inch deep cast iron dutch oven. Start by putting about 6 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil in the pot and heat it up. Add 2 pounds of thinly sliced smoked sausage, a whole sweet yellow onion, sliced red green and yellow bell pepper. 3 table spoons of minced garlic. 4 pealed and sliced potatoes. Bring oil to a sizzle and cook ingredients for 4 to 5 minutes stirring to prevent burning. when this is done, put in a thinly sliced jalapino,( minus the seeds). Cut up a head of cabbage and put on top of mixture. Put 12 charcoal briquetes under and 12 on top on lid and cool for 1 hour, turnig over contents every 15 minutes to keep them from burning. after 1 hour raise lid cool and serve.

Prepare about 1 pound of venison "backstrap" (the ribeye portion of the loin, not tenderloin) by removing the sinew and slicing at a 45 degree angle into 1/2 to 3/4 inch steaks. Rub 1/4 teaspoon of salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides of each steak. Heat a skillet or frying pan with no oil until extremely hot, NO teflon here. Sear each side for 1 or 2 minutes. Do not overcook. Medium rare is safe for venison (deer). Remove from heat. Mix the jiuces with your desired amount of worchestershire and use for a dip. Steamed broccoli or asparagus is complimentary.

The next day, the leftover steaks are great with some horseradish and mayonaise on a sandwich too.

This is a great suggestion for you meat lovers and hunters.

Happy eating,
Randy

Atlantic (Nova Scotia) Donair

You better read this one through before you get started just to be sure you have everything that you will need. After several of my American friends have had these they all agreed that it DOES go well with Budweiser, but seems to go best with either Keith's or Labatt's Blue. I can't imagine anyone south of Maine being able to get Keith's, so Labatt's Blue will have to do. Molsen will do in a pinch.

If you do drink beer with this, be prepared for the gasseous results.


Donair Sauce

2/3 cup canned evaporated milk
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Stir canned milk, sugar and garlic powder until sugar is dissolved. Add vinegar and continue mixing. The quicker you add the vinegar and the less you mix (I usually give the spoon 3 or 4 turns around the bowl), the thicker the sauce will be. Let sauce sit for at least one hour in refrigerator before using.

You should be able to get thick sauce simply by following the instructions in the top recipe. I can get mine a bit thicker than yogurt. Occasionally, I blow it and stir too much and the sauce gets thin again. If your sauce is not thick enough (I like spoons to stand up in it) follow the recipe below.

Alternate SUPER-THICK Sauce Recipe

2/3 cup canned sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Follow the same instructions as above, except that you really need to stir for a long time to get the condensed milk and vinigar mixed properly. Do not be alarmed. Stirring this recipe for a long time will not make it thin. Leave set for a few minutes and you will be able to turn the bowl upside down and none of it will pour out.
Please note, the amount of sauce provided in this recipe will likely last two servings at most (if used properly). I find that the sauce can be made in larger batches and survives an unnaturally long time in the fridge.


Donair Meat

3 pounds lean hamburger (triple ground*)
3/4 cup bread crumbs
2 tsp pepper
1-2 tsp cayenne red pepper (depending on your taste)
1 1/2 tsp oregano
3 tsp paprika
2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt

*Try to get your butcher to run the meat through the grinder a few times. A food processor will do the trick also.

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Knead for 20 minutes. Shape into two tightly formed loaves. Bake on broiler pan for 2 to 2 1/2 hours at 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Cool loaves and slice into thick slabs. Meat can be frozen for future use. If you are not fortunate enough to own your own rotary-stick-cooker thing like the ones in the good shops, you may find that the inner parts of the loaf are not browned enough. This can be remedied by re-heating the meat in a frying pan. This browns it nicely and gives it that slightly chewier texture.


Preparation

Heat donair meat in a frying pan. Dip a pita bread in water and fry in frying pan to soften (this is VERY important). Place a generous amount of sauce on bread. Top with meat, chopped onions and tomatoes and finish off with lots more sauce. Put on some old clothes, then roll up or serve open face on a plate. Utensils are strictly forbidden.


Variations

Donair Sub
If you do not have pita bread, you could try the Donair Sub, which is all the above plus some mozzarella cheese placed on a submarine bun and baked for a few minutes (until cheese melts a bit).

Donair Pizza
Grate a bit of mozzarella cheese onto a pizza crust (this will help bind the toppings to the dry crust). Top with loads of donair meat, tomatoes, onions and then more cheese. Bake in oven until cooked to your desired meltiness. Pour cold or room temperature sauce onto each slice before you eat it. The combo of hot pizza with cool donair sauce is very pleasing.

If you can't seem to get your sauce really thick, you might try putting the sauce on the crust first. This will ruin the hot pizza/cold sauce sensation, but will be easier to eat.


Enjoy!

Haggis,

Here's a recipe for the beloved Haggis of Scotland. In addition to the other naughty (read "delectable") bits, the lungs are traditionally included in Scotland, but are omitted here as it's illegal to sell lungs in the U.S. Some folks also think that liver shouldn't be used ..."



1 sheep's lung (illegal in the U.S.; may be omitted if not available)
1 sheep's stomach
1 sheep heart
1 sheep liver
1/2 lb fresh suet (kidney leaf fat is preferred)
3/4 cup oatmeal (the ground type, NOT the Quaker Oats type!)
3 onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 cup stock
Wash lungs and stomach well, rub with salt and rinse. Remove membranes and excess fat. Soak in cold salted water for several hours. Turn stomach inside out for stuffing.
Cover heart and liver with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Chop heart and coarsely grate liver. Toast oatmeal in a skillet on top of the stove, stirring frequently, until golden. Combine all ingredients and mix well. Loosely pack mixture into stomach, about two-thirds full. Remember, oatmeal expands in cooking.

Press any air out of stomach and truss securely. Put into boiling water to cover. Simmer for 3 hours, uncovered, adding more water as needed to maintain water level. Prick stomach several times with a sharp needle when it begins to swell; this keeps the bag from bursting. Place on a hot platter, removing trussing strings. Serve with a spoon. Ceremoniously served with "neeps, tatties and nips" -- mashed turnips, mashed potatoes, nips of whiskey.

When preparing the hagis, if your stomach has the esophogas still attached, it is advisable to drape it over the side of the pot when boiling so any excess steam can escape. Much better than pricking the stomach.

Additionally, you can lay the stomach on a plate at the bottom of the pot so that it doesn't stick.

My recipe isn't much different from Lon's but I will check it out to see if my great gradmother had any other advice.

Nice of Lon to remember the difference in the oat meals. LOL

I also forgot , IF you want to keep it traditional you will need one SCOTTISH PIPER to PIPE IN THE HAGGIS or alternatively find some Scottish Bagpipe music and play it when the unopened Haggis is carried to the table and cut open , remember to have a nip 'o' whiskey ready to toast the Haggis .

I hate to say it but going to work and comeing home has become a dull routine as of lately. Its seems like we eat the same thing over and over and nothing new. Also it getting to expensive to go out and eat. So i guess im asking what your favorite winter time food is?? Home cooked meal please.

Ok i will start with what we eat and hope it helps other's with new ideals.

Homemade Chili
Homemade Vegetable soup with hambuger and soup bone.
Pigs in a blanket - (Hotdogs wrap with biscuits).
Chili dogs with cheese and onion on a bun.
Hot sliced beef sanwich on mashed potatoes on beef gravy.
Biscuits and Gravy - (brown or white Gravy).
Cornbread and onions and beans.
Steamed hambuger over mashed potatoes and gravy.
Onion soup and homemade bread.
I know its looks like alot, and its the same old grind everytime I hope some of the foods sound good for your tastebuds also? I want to try something new any suggestions?
Make me hungry folks???? Give it your best shot!!!

Hey i got a good one we just tried; I will call it cheap steak.

Buy cheap hamburger: Take about a hand full of hamburger and mold it in your hand and put it in a pan and flaten. Then put salt and pepper however you like. Put it on a none stick pan.

Add (French's worcestershire sauce} sprinkle on top . Then add (Heinz 57 sauce about 10 drops per burger. (The secret is real low heat) Flip and redo the process again. Cook them till they look like steak cooked on a grill. (yes on a stovetop around 45 min) Allmost think they are burnt. You will a have great allmost Cheap steak at low cost. Try it! And give me your thoughts and tastebud opionin????? Yes on a nonstick pan!
