New Blog!

This is a group of 13 friends and neighbors that get together once a month to enjoy good food and share recipes. Each month a different girl hosts and does all the cooking. Every few months we have a "couples night" which means we get to bring our husbands and two girls work together to host the increased crowd. By the years end, each of us has only had to cook one great meal and in exchange you get to enjoy 9 others!

Jennie Russon's Roast

Tri Tip Roast - 
Marinate over night:
3 Tblsp Liquid Smoke
3 tsp. Garlic Powder
2 tsp. Onion Salt
2 tsp. Celery Salt 
Its like a rub - if you get your meat at Costco there are 2 roasts in a package so this is only enough for 1 Roast.

The next day you can crock pot the roast for 7 hours on low or I put it in my roasting pan filled it with water about 1/2 way up the roast and cooked it covered for 4 hours at 325.
Slice the roast and serve with sauce:

Sauce:
1 C. catchup
1 tsp. Celery Seed
3 C. Brown Sugar
1 C. Water
1 tsp. Salt
1 Tblsp Onion Salt
1/4 C. Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 C White wine  vinegar 
Don't Substitute Ingredients- this is tons of sauce even for 2 roasts - don't double it.

Whipping Cream Potatoes
Diced Red Potatoes cut enough to fill 9X13 pan 1/2 way up - mix in chopped onion - sprinkle with Garlic Salt - pour whipping cream over potatoes until about 1/2 way up to 3/4 of covering potatoes - but don't completely cover them.  Bake 2 hours at 350 sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese.  

Monkey Bread

In a pan bring to boil - but watch it - it will boil over
1 1/2 squares of butter
3/4 Cup Sugar
1 1/2 Cup of Water
Let it cool-

In a glass bowl mix:
1 1/2 Tblsp yeast - get the yeast at Dicks in Centerville at the bakery
1 Cup very warm water
3 tsp. Sugar
stir and set aside for yeast to grow

In KitchenAid or Bosch put:
5 eggs
2 1/4 tsp. Salt
3 3/4 C Flour 
Add Water, Sugar, Butter mixture
Mix for a second
Add yeast mixture - make sure you have given the yeast enough time to grow
Add another additional 3 3/4  cups of flour (watch the last 3/4 mix it while you add it and see if the dough is pulling away clean from the sides if so stop adding the flour or you might have to add a little more than the 3 3/4)

After it is mixed well set aside - Let raise for 1 1/2 hours - punch down - raise 1 more hour.   You need 2 bunt pans melt a square of butter and put 1 in the bottom of each pan.   Pull dough out split it in 2 roll it out (it is easier to grease your counter with crisco but you can use flour also)  - with an empty soup can or cookie cutter about the size of a soup can cut circles.  Use 1/2 of dough for one pan and 1/2 for the other stack the cut circles all the way around the pan.  Let raise 1/2 an hour to 1 hour in pans - Bake at 325 for 30 - 45 min. - dump out on plate and serve warm.

Vegetables:

Cut up
Asparagus
Yellow Squash
Purple Onion
Mushrooms
Red Bell Peppers
Toss with olive oil - sprinkle with garlic salt, Parmesan cheese - broil in the oven until tender.
