Slow Cooker Asian Pork Roast Recipe

I had some fruit trees come in on Friday, and I had to work over the weekend so I didn’t have the time to plant them until today. Seeing as this was stacking up to be a real busy day I decided to get out the slow cooker. This allowed me to get dinner on, and go about getting done, what I had to get done.

This Slow Cooker Asian Pork Roast Recipe is a simple recipe that doesn’t require a lot of prep time. I was a little concerned about the ground cloves the recipe called for; because of not being sure how this spice would blend in with the rest of the ingredients. As usual the pork, because of being cooked in the slow cooker, was nice and tender, and it turned out that the ground cloves was a nice added touch. I decided to serve this recipe with Garlic Mashed Potatoes because of the delicious gravy that was created with the recipe, but if you want to keep to the Asian theme you may want to serve it over rice.

The next time you have a busy day coming up and you decide to use your slow cooker give this Slow Cooker Asian Pork Roast Recipe a try; it’s really good.

Venison Stroganoff Recipe

Venison Stroganoff Recipe

This Venison Stroganoff Recipe caught my attention because there are a couple of ingredients in it I have never used before; this recipe calls for beef Consommé and Kitchen Bouquet. Naturally with any wild game recipe the outcome will largely be determined by how gamy tasting the meat is you are using. This recipe in its original form called serving the Venison Stroganoff over wild rice-which I do not have available so I served it over egg noodles which is a little more conventional anyway. This is a very good recipe with a little bit of tang to the flavor. it is mildly seasoned and you can have Venison Stroganoff on the table within an hour. For the meat I used venison chops but you could also use round steak depending on what you have available. If you have some venison on hand give this one a try. Enjoy

Ingredients

1 1/2 venison boneless chops or round steak

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons pepper

3 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon flour

1 cup Beef Consommé

1 teaspoon prepared hot mustard

3 tablespoons sour cream

1 dash Kitchen Bouquet

1 onion (sliced)

Egg noodles or wild rice.

Directions

1. Slice venison into 1/ 8 inch strips about 2 inches long and remove any fat if necessary.

2. Season with salt and pepper and, set aside and let the venison reach room temperature.

3. Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet. Blend in flour, then add the Beef Consommé and bring to a boil; then stir in mustard and sour cream. Bring back to a boil then reduce the heat to warm and stir in a dash of Kitchen Bouquet.

4. Using the rest of the butter and another skillet brown the venison and onion till venison is no longer pink inside, then add the meat and onion to the sauce. Cook on very low simmer for 20 minutes.

5. Serve over wild rice or egg noodles

Grilled Barbeque Chicken Recipe

Grilled Barbeque Chicken Recipe

This Grilled Barbeque Chicken Recipe is really good; but does take some time. When I saw the ingredients in this recipe I couldn’t wait to give it a try. The combination of ingredients along with the Sherry just looked really good. This is a simple recipe but you need to give yourself a lot of time, the chicken needs to marinate for 2-4 hours, and the sauce has to cook down to a barbeque sauce consistency,  which could be done ahead of time, or while the chicken is marinating. You have to also add in the grilling time for the chicken which takes about an hour, but if you like firing up the grill this recipe is a lot of fun to prepare. Your family and friends will love it; just keep a lot of moist towel lets on hand because this chicken is sticky and finger licking good. So if you like to grill give this Grilled Barbeque Chicken Recipe a try-you’ll love it. Enjoy

Velveeta Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

 

I love macaroni and cheese so I thought I would give this Velveeta Chicken Spaghetti Recipe a try. I am not hot on something that got a lot of heat in it so I was a little cautious when I realized that the redipe called for Rotel Tomatoes, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Actually because of the large amount of other ingredients it was little spicy but not really hot. The result was a nice creamy dish with good flavor. I thought it was ok, but then to my surprise the family loved it, and that’s what counts. You can make any changes you like; I followed the recipe as it is written. If you would like it less juicy or a little creamier just use more or less chicken broth.  So if you’re looking for something a little different tonight give this Velveeta Chicken Spaghetti Recipe a try and enjoy.
