Skillet Monkey Bread
My husband picked up a package of Bridgford Parkerhouse Style Rolls thinking they were quick rolls that I needed for that night’s dinner.

Country-style Ribs and Great Northern Beans
If I could get away with making everything a one pot meal, I’d do it just as sure as I’m sittin’ here.

Apple Cider Braised Pulled Pork
So, they tell me today is National Sandwich Day. I guess we should celebrate that by making a good sandwich. I can’t make a good tomato sandwich because it’s off-season for tomatoes and my fall plants haven’t started producing.
